SFTP

Creating SFTP services in HULFT Square enables you to transfer files securely using SFTP.

These services can be used as a file transfer method other than HULFT.

You can establish an SFTP connection by specifying the IP addresses to which to permit access or by using AWS PrivateLink.

Note

Connections via the internet or PrivateLink are available, but connections via VPN aren't available.

SFTP Service is a paid option. To create SFTP services, you need to install the application from App Square. For detailed instructions, refer to Transfer files to HULFT Square via SFTP connection.

In SFTP, you can create, restart, and delete SFTP services.

You can operate SFTP from > SERVICES > SFTP in the navigation menu.

The key points about creating and configuring SFTP services are explained in this section.

Points for settings

Grant permissions to the group that needs to operate the services. When you create SFTP services, determine the allocation of CPU resources and the memory size depending on the scripts or data being handled.

Note

To configure SFTP service settings, either one of the following permissions is required:
