Sigma now enables you to connect with FTP servers for secured transfer of files (CSV, PDF, XLS, DOCX, HTML, XML and TXT formats). The user can transfer as well as receive files from the FTP server in a secured manner. You can easily connect to FTP servers and perform actions like sending and receiving files with the limited configuration steps.

To create FTP connections, make sure to copy all the JAR files from the following folder in the CT Sigma platform binary package

  • ..\Supporting_Jars\Camel_Jars\FTP_Jars

And place those files in your application WAR files on the app or web server. For example, <Tomcat-Installed-Folder>\webapps\sigma\WEB-INF\lib folder in the above mentioned path.
