To transfer files with SFTP, you will need to have your Partek Flow:

• Your Partek Flow server name. For exampleServer Name. Example: myname.partek.com

• Your login id. For exampleUsername. Example: flowloginname

• Your password

 - OR -

• Your private Private authentication key

This information should have been e-mailed to you from the Partek licensing team. If you lose this information, contact Partek support and we can reset your password or issue a new authentication key. For the initial roll-out of SFTP, we offer access via both password and private key. We highly recommend using only your private key to connect and ask us to disable password-based access. The reason is key-based access is much more secure and easier to use as there is no password to remember. If you opt to keep using password based authentication, you can change your SFTP account password after logging in by using the passwd program. Note this does not change your Partek Flow login password. These are two separate account spaces and one does not affect the other.will resend your authentication key to you.

SFTP with FileZilla

FileZilla is a graphical file transfer tool that runs on Windows, OSX, and Linux. It is great when needing to do bulk transfers as all transfers are added to a queue and processed in the background. It is possible to browse your files on the Partek Flow server while transfers are active. This is also the best solution when you are not on a computer with command line access or you are uncomfortable with command line operations.
