What can I automate with SFTP?

Start a workflow or agent when New/Updated File or New/Updated Subfolder happens in SFTP, then List Directory, Rename a File or Read CSV to JSON, alongside 200+ other apps.

Can an AI agent update SFTP?

Yes, when you add SFTP actions to its tools. You can pin fields, limit values and require approval before it acts, and every action is recorded in the Event Logs.

Do I need to write code?

No. Pick a trigger and actions in the builder, or describe what you want and Copilot sets it up.

What if the SFTP action I need isn't listed?

Call the SFTP API from any REST API step. On the Enterprise plan, talk to us about adding it.

Use SFTP in an AI agent
