Integrate Egnyte with Couchdrop
How it works
The Egnyte connector allows you to integrate Egnyte storage with Couchdrop and use Egnyte folders as a secure location for sending and receiving files. This connector acts as a virtual folder to directly access files within Egnyte from within Couchdrop.
The Egnyte connector is compatible with all file transfer methods and tools including Shared Links, Mailboxes, Upload Portals, and automations.
Once connected, a folder for the Egnyte connection will be added to Couchdrop. From that folder, users can list objects in the Egnyte content cloud, as well as upload, download, and delete files according to the access permissions you configure. This allows internal and external teams to access files via SFTP, FTP, or any other supported protocol while being scoped to access and actions that you set.
Couchdrop connects to Egnyte over Egnyte’s API. Files are transferred through Couchdrop, but are not stored at rest on Couchdrop infrastructure.
You can make connections to different roots or Egnyte accounts by creating separate connections.
