FTP service settings

The FTP service (FTP) enables processes to interact with an FTP server. FTP service operations can retrieve files from the FTP server, put files on the FTP server, and delete files from the FTP server. For example, documents such as reports generated from a process may be stored on an FTP server for distribution. Or an external system may generate some files based on previous steps in a process. In a subsequent step in the process, the files may be transferred to a remote location.

The following settings are available for the FTP service. For details on how to configure these settings, see Configure service settings.

Default host:
The IP address or URL of the FTP server.

Default port:
The port used to connect to the FTP server. The default value is 21.

Default username:
The name of the user account that you can use to access the FTP server. The user account must have sufficient privileges to perform the FTP operations that this service requires.

Default password:
The password to use with the specified user name for authenticating with the FTP server.
