File Transfer Manager
The File Transfer Manager app simplifies integrations between Business Central and external systems based on file exchange and FTP/SFTP connections.
Managing the setup directly from Business Central, without having to do it externally, for example in Power Automate or with Logic Apps, simplifies maintenance and configuration.
The most common use cases are:
- Downloading and uploading files between FTP/SFTP servers and local Azure blobs.
- Configuring file export and import paths on Azure blobs.
The connection between Business Central and the external FTP/SFTP systems takes place through an Azure Function to be installed and configured on an Azure subscription, ensuring the secure transfer of information (which does not pass through third-party systems) and the reliability of the solution.
The FTP connector supports several authentication modes and configurations, and can therefore be used in all the most common scenarios.
The app's features can easily be integrated into other custom apps through AL development, providing solid data exchange capabilities.
