FTP

FTP

FTP refers to File Transfer Protocol. This protocol provides a list of rules that monitor how a computer transfers files from one system to another via the internet. FTP is needed in rubiscape because it enables the user to send high-volume files easily with safety. Users can also access files in FTP within the same network. Rubiscape allows you to create a dataset using four options- Upload Excel (or CSV or JSON or Text) Files, S3, FTP (File Transfer Protocol), and Azure Blob Storage. FTP provides you the functionality to browse files on an FTP server and upload them to the platform.
In Rubiscape, you can use FTP to create datasets by entering the following information:

  • Host – FTP server IP address. You need to enter the IP address.
  • Username – Enter a valid username for login.
  • Password – The password used to login into the FTP server and given as input by the user.
    In case any of these three values is entered incorrectly, an error message is thrown.
  • File directory URL– This gives the location of the file. Given as input by the user.

Filename/Wildcard – This acts as a filter that allows the user to select specific files from the directory.
