1. Re: Can I sftp any kind of file (say pdf) using Informatica PowerCenter without concerning about the content of the file?
Nico Heinze May 28, 2019 12:05 PM (in response to Srinivasarao Kotipatruni)The SFTP connections provided by PowerCenter can only be used for the standard source / target flat files, not for binary files.
Having written that, you can always write your own Java code in a Java Transformation to perform a SFTP transfer for any file accessible locally. I've done something similar years ago with FTPS, that works. You just need to find some JAR library which provides SFTP functionality which you can use without violating any license rules; that can become a real challenge for commercial use.
