Download from SFTP

Caleb

All,

 

I'm trying to determine if Alteryx can download files from an SFTP site. 

 

I've been searching the community and I came across this for download from FTP: https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Knowledge-Base/File-Transfer-Protocol-FTP-Download/ta-p/105...

 

Can I use this setup for SFTP as well? If not, is there a way to download from SFTP using Alteryx?

 

Lastly, if it is possible, can pull all files in the directory using \*.csv (as can be done with the Directory tool) or is a specific path required?

 

I saw a thread from 2015 talking about inability to upload to SFTP, not sure if that also meant download was also not possible at the time of writing.

 

Thank you in advance!
