Automated File Transfers & Workflows Popular Questions
What types of file transfers can I automate with HostedFTP?
You can automate scheduled transfers, event-triggered syncs, bulk uploads, and file routing to external destinations like SFTP or Amazon S3—all without manual input.
How do scheduled transfers work?
Simply set up a recurring schedule (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.) for file uploads, downloads, or syncs. HostedFTP will automatically execute the transfer based on your chosen frequency and conditions.
Can HostedFTP connect to other systems using APIs?
Yes. HostedFTP supports REST APIs and webhooks, allowing you to integrate with ERP, CRM, or other systems for real-time file automation and workflow orchestration.
Is bulk file uploading supported in automated workflows?
Absolutely. You can upload and process multiple large files simultaneously using bulk upload tools, then route or sync them automatically based on folder or user rules.
What happens if an automated file transfer fails?
HostedFTP includes real-time notifications and error handling. You’ll receive alerts for failures, and you can configure retry attempts to minimize downtime or data loss.
Can I route files to different destinations based on conditions?
Yes. You can configure workflows that route files based on user, folder, or filename logic—ensuring files go to the right SFTP server, S3 bucket, or internal location.
Is file automation secure and compliant?
Yes. All automated transfers use SFTP, FTPS, or HTTPS protocols with AES 256-bit encryption, and are logged for audit trails and compliance with SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR.
Can external partners participate in automated workflows?
Yes. You can include external users or partners in your workflows by setting folder permissions and automating transfers based on their uploads or activity.
