Connect to an FTP account with SFTP

(Conditional) If you want to set up secure transfer with Adobe FTP servers:

1. Request an Adobe-hosted FTP account (50 MB quota).

2. Create Public/Private keys.

   • In Linux environment, run:

     code language-none
     ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your-comment-or-email"

     If your policy does not allow you to use ed25519, run:

     code language-none
     ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your-comment-or-email"

     Note: This typically applies to customers who operate under FIPS 186-4, as ed25519 is first supported in the newer FIPS 186-5.

   • In a Windows environment, use puttyGen.

(Conditional) If you want to set up secure transfer with your own FTP location, you must have an SFTP host, username, and the destination site that contain a valid RSA or ed25519 public key. You can download the appropriate public key when creating the feed.

Create a file named authorized_keys (no extension).

Copy the contents of the Public key into authorized_keys.

Upload authorized_keys to an FTP account:

• Connect to the Adobe FTP account.
• Create a .ssh directory (if it does not already exist).
• Upload the authorized_keys file to the .ssh directory.

Test the connection by logging in to the FTP account using SFTP.
