How to set up regular SFTP connection for audiences
You must be a power user to see the following settings. Reach out for access here or within #alli-audiences if you are not currently a power user.
To create an SFTP connection, you will have to be an admin in the audiences platform. Please reach out to an admin to create sftp connections.
Go to Alli audience client settings within your necessary client.
Click SFTP Connections → Add Connection
Fill in the form with the SFTP details you are using.
The name is whatever makes sense to you/the client.
Connection type
IMPORT if you will be bringing data in from the destination
ACTIVATION if data will be sent to the destination.
Standard SFTP port is 22
Username & Password for the SFTP supplied by the client/vendor/1password
For PMG SFTP’s the default file path should be set to /writeable as this is the only folder that we allow data to be dropped to.
Click Save & your new connection will be ready for import or activation use!
We suggest that the username, host and password be stored in the clients 1password vault for other users to access. The password can be shared safely with the client using 1 time link generators such as pwpush.com
