SFTP to Mac OSX Server connector
Move files to and from OSX Server using SFTP, FTP, and SCP
Couchdrop enables seamless SFTP, FTP, and SCP access to your OSX Server, supporting both direct connections and agent-based integration.

4 ways to move files to and from Mac OSX Server
Whether you need manual transfers, self-service uploads, email-based collection, or fully automated workflows, Couchdrop provides a secure SFTP gateway into your Mac OSX Server environment.

Direct SFTP/FTP access
Create SFTP user accounts that map directly to Mac OSX Server folders. Partners connect using standard FTP 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.

Web upload portals
Generate secure, branded upload pages where external users can drag-and-drop files directly into Mac OSX Server. No accounts or software needed—just send them a link. Perfect for collecting documents from clients, vendors, or anyone who needs to send you files occasionally.

Email inboxes
Create dedicated email addresses that automatically extract attachments and save them to Mac OSX Server. Partners just email files like they always have—Couchdrop handles the rest. Set rules to route files based on sender, subject, or attachment type.

Automated transfers
Set up scheduled or triggered file movements between Mac OSX Server and any SFTP endpoint. Monitor Mac OSX Server folders and automatically send new files to partners, or pull files from external servers into Mac OSX Server. Build complex workflows with file processing, routing, and notifications—all without writing code.
Common use cases
From vendor invoices to automated reports, here's how some organizations are using Couchdrop with Mac OSX Server.
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 Mac OSX Server folders. They upload purchase orders, you send back confirmations—all automated and tracked.
Automated report distribution
Watch your Mac OSX Server folders for new reports and automatically send them to stakeholders via SFTP. When your BI tool drops a report in your Mac OSX Server, 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 Mac OSX Server folder. No more chasing documents or managing shared inboxes.
Legacy system integration
Connect old systems that only speak FTP directly to your Mac OSX Server. 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 Mac OSX Server. 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 Mac OSX Server 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 Mac OSX Server 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 Mac OSX Server to external SFTP storage or cloud archives. Or reverse it—archive old files from network drives into your Mac OSX Server for better governance. Set retention rules and forget about it.
