FTP Connector
Provides access to files and folders on an FTP server. FTP Connector operations manage file transfers by using File Transfer Protocol (FTP). The Connector’s main features include:
-
The ability to read files or fully list directory contents on demand.
-
Support for common FTP operations such as creating directories and copying, moving, renaming, and deleting files.
-
Support for locking files.
-
File matching functionality.
A design that is consistent with the File and FTP Connectors.
The same set of operations is available using these two Connectors, and they behave similarly.
