SFTP Step Copy File - How to set up source connection if source is mid server?

Edwin Fuller

I'm trying to copy a file from our mid server to an SFTP location using the flow designer STFP step "Copy file" action.

I need to know how to set up the source connection alias. Would that be the user and pw to connect to the mid server or my ServiceNow credentials?

Hi @Edwin Fuller 

The info which you are looking for is available in below ServiceNow doc link:

My suggestion here will be to follow below steps and check:

1. Navigate to module named "Flow Designer" and click on "Connections" tab as shown below:

2. Now select the block with say name might be in as SMTP or something and click on View Details and then click on Configure.

3. Now you need to define the Connections which is available in a Related list as shown below, so click on New button:

Here you need to define your HOST server URL and mid server selection as well. Also an important parameter to define is the Credential before you configure this.

Navigate to Credentials module using Application Navigator under Integration Hub Application Menu. 

Click on new and select the type of credentials and enter the credentials details.

Hope this helps. Please mark the answer as correct/helpful based on impact.
