What we need from you
Share the items below with your Conflixis contact to begin provisioning your SFTP integration. Use the secure channel they provide for anything marked sensitive — do not send secrets over email.
Connection details
Section titled “Connection details”| Field | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|
host | sftp.example.com | Hostname or IP Conflixis will connect to. |
port | 22 | Standard SFTP port; non-standard ports are supported. |
username | conflixis | A dedicated user scoped only to the import folder. |
basePath | /uploads/conflixis | Absolute path to the folder we should monitor. |
filePattern | *.csv | Glob that describes which files we should pick up. |
Authentication
Section titled “Authentication”Pick one of the two supported methods. Key authentication is strongly preferred.
- RSA key authentication — you generate a keypair, install the public key on your SFTP server, and securely share the private key with Conflixis.
- Password authentication — you set a password on the dedicated user and share it with Conflixis.
File details
Section titled “File details”| Field | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| File type | people | What Conflixis should do with matching files. Supported: people, supplier. |
| Column mapping | See table below | Only required if your file’s headers don’t match the Conflixis defaults. |
| Expected cadence | Weekly, Mondays | So we can alert if a file is unexpectedly late. |
Column mapping (optional)
Section titled “Column mapping (optional)”If your CSV headers don’t match the Conflixis defaults, provide a mapping of your header names to our field keys. For example:
{ "First Name": "first_name", "Last Name": "last_name", "Work Email": "email", "Employee ID": "external_id"}Your Conflixis contact will provide the full list of supported field keys for the file type you’re loading.
Network access
Section titled “Network access”If your SFTP server is behind a firewall or allowlist, your network team will need to permit inbound connections from Conflixis. Your Conflixis contact will provide the current source IP range for our ingestion worker.
