SFTP upload/Export

  1. What is your feature/integration request?
    Export csv or other file types to a folder via SFTP
  2. What problem would this feature/integration solve?
    SPINS is a data aggregator that we report sales data to. Instead of manually downloading the csv file then uploading it to their SFTP server, the solution would send the csv file directly to their server witht he credentials provided.
  3. How do you solve/workaround this problem today?
    Manually.

Having the ability to save a json or csv file to a web server via ftp would make it possible to integrate the output data into websites. For example, I’d like to take a sales report from our POS for a given time period and turn it into a Hot Sheet on our website so potential customers could see what items we’ve had in stock recently. It could also be used with a webhook for any particular supplier to see the sales volume for their items so they know what to deliver.

Would be good to have Excel file support to…

Crazy to not have this feature as it makes it very convoluted to integrate parabola with a web server / ecommerce store.

Excited to announce you can now use Parabola to pull from and send files to your FTP server!
Our new integration supports both FTP/FTPS and SFTP protocols, as well as csv, tsv, excel, xml and json files up to 600MB in size. Learn more about this new feature here.
