SFTP to OneDrive connector
Transfer files to and from Microsoft OneDrive using SFTP, FTP, and SCP
Couchdrop transforms your Microsoft OneDrive cloud storage to give you simple, fast and secure SFTP, FTP, and SCP connectivity for your OneDrive files and folders, including Office 365 accounts.

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

Direct SFTP/FTP access
Create SFTP user accounts that map directly to OneDrive 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 OneDrive. 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 OneDrive. 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 OneDrive and any SFTP endpoint. Monitor OneDrive folders and automatically send new files to partners, or pull files from external servers into OneDrive. 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 OneDrive.
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 OneDrive folders. They upload purchase orders, you send back confirmations—all automated and tracked.
Automated report distribution
Watch your OneDrive folders for new reports and automatically send them to stakeholders via SFTP. When your BI tool drops a report in your OneDrive, 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 OneDrive folder. No more chasing documents or managing shared inboxes.
Legacy system integration
Connect old systems that only speak FTP directly to your OneDrive. 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 OneDrive. 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 OneDrive 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 OneDrive 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 OneDrive to external SFTP storage or cloud archives. Or reverse it—archive old files from network drives into your OneDrive for better governance. Set retention rules and forget about it.
