4 ways to move files to and from Google Cloud Storage

Whether you need to support manual file transfers, self-service uploads, email-based collection, or fully automated SFTP workflows, Couchdrop provides a secure gateway into your Google Cloud Storage environment.

Direct SFTP access to Google Cloud Storage

Direct SFTP/FTP to Google Cloud Storage

Create SFTP user accounts that map directly to Google Cloud Storage folders. Partners connect using standard SFTP/FTP protocols, and clients like FileZilla or WinSCP, to upload and download files. You control permissions down to the folder level, while they use the tools they already know.

Automated sftp transfer workflow for Google Cloud Storage

Trusted by businesses worldwide

Common use cases

From vendor invoices to automated reports, here's how some organizations are using Couchdrop with Google Cloud Storage.

B2B file exchange

Exchange files with partners, suppliers, and customers using their preferred FTP clients. Give each partner their own SFTP account with access to specific your Google Cloud Storage folders. They upload purchase orders, you send back confirmations—all automated and tracked.

Automated report distribution

Watch your Google Cloud Storage folders for new reports and automatically send them to stakeholders via SFTP. When your BI tool drops a report in your Google Cloud Storage, Couchdrop picks it up and delivers it to partner servers, data warehouses, or analytics platforms.

Vendor document collection

Create dedicated email addresses or upload portals for each vendor. Attachments sent to your Couchdrop Mailbox automatically land in the correct Google Cloud Storage folder. No more chasing documents or managing shared inboxes.

Legacy system integration

Connect old systems that only speak FTP directly to your Google Cloud Storage. Your 20-year-old ERP can finally talk to the cloud. Schedule nightly exports, hourly syncs, or real-time transfers without touching legacy code.

Client deliverable portals

Give clients secure SFTP access to their project folders in your Google Cloud Storage. They download deliverables on their schedule, upload feedback and approvals. You maintain one source of truth while they use familiar tools.

Multi-site data consolidation

Collect files from branch offices, retail locations, or field sites into centralized your Google Cloud Storage libraries. Each location uploads to their folder via FTP, and you can trigger Power Automate flows for processing.

Regulatory submission workflows

Automate compliance reporting by scheduling transfers from your Google Cloud Storage to regulatory bodies' SFTP servers. Set up once, never miss a deadline. Full audit trails satisfy compliance requirements.

Backup and archive transfers

Schedule nightly backups from your Google Cloud Storage to external SFTP storage or cloud archives. Or reverse it—archive old files from network drives into your Google Cloud Storage for better governance. Set retention rules and forget about it.
