File (SFTP from Cloud) connection point

The communication is direct and does not involve an Enterprise connector. You can create this connection point by providing the URL and credentials of the external SFTP file directory. Configurations in this connection point to send and receive documents are the same as the File connection point. For details about configuring a File connection point or a File (SFTP from Cloud) connection point, see the Infor ION Technology Connectors Administration Guide.

SFTP is a secure file transfer protocol of FTP over SSH. If you have an SFTP share open to the cloud, then ION CE acts as the SFTP client and can transport the files. Standard port 22 is used in this communication.
