Custom SFTP Port (e.g. 2004) in Qlik Data Transfer – Is it possible?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working with Qlik Data Transfer and need to set up an SFTP connection. In the dropdown for the SFTP port, I can only select 22 or 2222. According to the Help article and a Community post I found, those seem to be the only supported ports.

However, our IT department is running the SFTP server on port 2004 for security policy reasons. Before I try to work around this or escalate it internally, I’d like to confirm:

Is there any way to use a custom SFTP port (specifically 2004) with Qlik Data Transfer?
Or is the port selection strictly limited to 22 and 2222 with no workaround?

Any insight or experience with this limitation would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
