Sync SFTP files

Intro

• Are you tired of routine tasks?
• Are you ready to automate the processes of managing and synchronizing files stored on remote servers?
• Febooti Automation Workshop will do it all for you!

Task Scheduler

• First, click the New Task button in the main program window and select Task Scheduler from the list of Triggers.
• Next, set up the period and frequency for the synchronization process.
• Exclude unnecessary days from the schedule, for example, the weekends.
• The Trigger is ready!

Connect to SFTP

• Now, set up the connection to your remote server.
• For SFTP servers, use the Connect to SFTP Action.
• Enter the server address and credentials.

Synchronize Directories

• The next step enables the actual synchronization of local and remote files.
• Enter the locations of the local folder and the directory on the remote server.
• Choose to download files from the server to your local computer.

Simple logic

• We send an email only if new files get synced.
• Check the downloaded files count with an added simple Logic Action.

Automate email

• Now, set up the email to be sent.
• The number of synchronized files in the last hour will appear dynamically in the email body.

Summary

• You are done! The Task is up and running!
• Every hour, the Scheduler will activate the Task that automatically checks for new files on the remote SFTP server.
• If there are new files, they are securely transferred to the local machine.
• You will receive an email notification about the new files synced in the last hour.
