FTP Server Connector

Simple and secure file transfers with remote FTP Servers

Couchdrop can connect to remote FTP servers and add additional security to make transfers involving the normally unsecure FTP protocol more secure.

Instant access • 14 day free trial • No card required

“Couchdrop is very easy to setup and maintain. The solution just works. Once you hooked up your cloud storage and mounted it to an endpoint, all you need to do is give access to your SFTP users within the interface. That's it. You're done.”

Simple file transfers to remote FTP servers

Connect to your partner’s servers using your Couchdrop cloud SFTP server to transfer files from any platform directly into the remote FTP Server. External parties can connect to your Couchdrop server via FTP/S using clients like FileZilla, Cyberduck, or WinSCP and transfer files from their server to yours or vice versa.

Secure file sending to remote FTP servers

Securely send folders or single files to your partner’s FTP server by generating secure sharing links. Each link can be configured with optional security settings like password, an expiration period, and one-time use, and you can require users to have a verified white-listed email to access the link and accept files into their server.

Email attachments to an FTP server

Create dedicated email addresses that automatically extract attachments. Update the recipient address in your automated systems to a mailbox address to email files directly from the system to a remote FTP server directory.

Automate file transfers involving remote FTP servers

Use automations to schedule transfers to and from remote FTP servers without manual steps. Build multi-step workflows and add file processing actions like renaming, encrypt/decrypt, and use event-based triggers or run automations on a schedule.

Frequently asked questions

How do you connect a remote FTP server to Couchdrop?
Remote FTP servers are connected as Partner/Provider connections in Couchdrop. Admins can create a new partner connection from any page, and during setup can specify a particular folder in the remote server as the root and name how that folder will appear in Couchdrop’s virtual file system
What information do I need to connect to a remote FTP server?
The server owner will need to add you as a user before you can FTP into the server. Once you are a user on the server, you can use Couchdrop to integrate with the server as that user and quickly transfer files from other platforms to the remote server or vice versa.
Can Couchdrop connect to FTP servers that don’t use the default port settings?
Yes, Couchdrop can connect to FTP servers that don’t use the default port settings. Simply specify the correct port during setup and test the connection when adding the integration.
Can I connect using FTPS?
Yes. The “Enable TLS” option on Couchrop’s FTP connector configuration will use FTP over TLS for the FTP connection. This option adds an encryption layer via TLS, enabling FTPS connections that are more secure and scalable.
Can I connect multiple different servers in a single Couchrop account?
Yes, you can create multiple different FTP connections in a single Couchdrop account to connect to different servers or different folders on the same server. Each connection counts as an endpoint, and you can add as many endpoints as your plan allows.
