Getting started for users
As a Managed File Transfer user, you have access to all enabled Managed File Transfer functions. To get started, you can activate or deactivate a listener, add a virtual folder, or add a post-processing or scheduled action.
Before you begin
You must have the MFT user role. For more information, see Roles.
Procedure
- Activate or deactivate a listener. When you activate a listener, Managed File Transfer prepares to perform file operations. Deactivating the listener stops the file operations.
- Configuring additional settings for a virtual folder. Information that is stored across multiple remote file systems is displayed as a cohesive data collection in the virtual folders.
- Configure the virtual
folders. The virtual folders settings enable customization of partner settings, location preferences, and user access levels for viewing, downloading, uploading, and deleting files and folders.
- Define a post-processing
action. The post-processing action runs when a file is uploaded, downloaded, or deleted.
- Define a scheduled action for execution at
a specific date and time. Scheduled actions automate file operations according to a predefined schedule, ensuring timely and efficient data exchange.
