Defining FTP settings
You can use Boomi Managed File Transfer to access the service through an FTP client. The Boomi Managed File Transfer FTP service lets you log into your site using SFTP or FTPS protocols.
SFTP\FTPS Client Configuration Information
note
- SFTP and FTPS access requires IP address whitelisting with MFT before accepting a connection.
| Region | Host |
|---|---|
| US | usnc-sftps.thruinc.net |
| UK | uks-sftp.thruinc.net |
| AUS | aue-sftp.thruinc.net |
| GER | eu-sftps.thruinc.net |
| US Sandbox | us-ftpsbx.thruinc.net |
To configure your FTP client to connect to MFT, refer to the following information:
- Protocol: Select your secure FTP preference, SFTP or FTPS
- Encryption: Require explicit FTP over TLS (required for FTPS)
- Logon Type: Select your preference
- User: The user is a combination of MFT site portal URL / username (typically an email address)
- Example: demo.thruinc.net\example@ftpuser.com
- Password: The password is the same one used for MFT portal authentication.
Network Firewall Considerations
- Egress connections to MFT FTP services may need to be enabled on a corporate firewall.
- If the error "The server rejected SFTP connection, but it listens for FTP connections" appears after attempting the authenticated connection. It is most likely that the MFT FTP host has to be added to the firewall allow list.
