About: FTPWRITER Endpoint

In Business Integration Solutions, the FTPWRITER endpoint is used to write files to an FTP location.

Usage

Use this endpoint if you want to upload documents to an FTP location, containing exported data from Microsoft Dynamics BC.

Concept

To be able to upload the documents, you must provide the FTP server address, user credentials and appropriate file name. You can make use of various file naming tokens available to create desired file names. Also, make sure to provide proper file extensions as the documents can be written in CSV, XML or Text formats.

If you want to view queue documents from different Microsoft Dynamics BC clients or locations, an FTP server must be used with the appropriate permissions for the users who are using that client.
