Upload files from Qlik Cloud to SFTP folder

Hello There,

We currently have the ability to upload / download files from an SFTP folder in our on-prem Enterprise version of Qlik Sense using the web connectors. Does the ability to upload files to an SFTP folder exist in Qlik Cloud?

@rdm6532 Qlik Cloud has an SFTP connector to pull data:

But not sure about upload, what sort of files do you need to upload from Qlik Cloud?

Hello @David_Friend, these would be XLSX files that we upload. Currently, we pull data from our constituent systems, generate a table that is then stored in an XLSX file in a network drive. We then use the Web Connectors to send the stored file SFTP. We are hoping to emulate this process in Qlik Cloud.

@rdm6532 Qlik Cloud has a built-in reporting tool we called 'Tabular Reporting' or 'Reporting Service' it uploads to SFTP:
