How To: Create a File Uploaded Event

Question

Can I create an automation that triggers once a file is uploaded into Titan SFTP Server?


Reasoning

As an admin, I would like to be able to create automations that perhaps can send email notifications or process the incoming files once uploaded.


Answer

In Titan SFTP Server, you have an event available to trigger when a file is uploaded to Titan by a user.


Steps

  1. Navigate to the Events section in the admin page and click on the + icon.
  2. Click on add event button.

NOTE: To Ensure we avoid any issues with post processing actions/workflows locking the file and causing an issue with the file transfer, always select “Upload/Write Successful” so the event waits until we get confirmation the file has been uploaded completely before proceeding with the next steps.

  1. Add conditions if needed.
  2. Click on Add Action.
  3. Select an action which will occur once a file has been uploaded to Titan SFTP Server and click Okay
