NPrinting FTP support

One of our customers uses NPrinting to distribute files (CSV) to their customers. We're about to go from NP 16 to NP 17+ (whatever the latest is). Reading all the articles it looks like it may not be possible to distribute CSV files to FTP sites in NP 17+. Is that correct?

Hi,

QlikView NPrinting 16 has the feature to send reports via FTP (it uses the FTP protocol, connect to the FTP server and send the files there. In Qlik NPrinting 17+  it still is a gap feature https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2022/Content/NPrinting/Migrate/Before-you-migrate.htm#ancho... so you can save report to a folder and use an external tool to send the files via FTP or share the folder via cloud storage, etc.

Qlik NPrinting 17+ has the NewsStand  so maybe another solution could be to publish reports for customers there. 

Best Regards,

Ruggero
