Masks are typically used to select multiple files to be retrieved from the server.
The SFTP Input and "SFTP Output" on page660 tasks are part of a separate installer and are
not included in the Workflow installer. The SFTP plugin installer can be downloaded from the
Resource Center, under 'Plugins' in PlanetPress Connect.
Input
The SFTP Input connects to the specified FTP server and path, and retrieves a list of all files
corresponding to the specified mask. These files may be of any format, even formats that are
not readable by PlanetPress Workflow. The files are not deleted from the server when they are
downloaded. They are added to a list of processed files for this server. These lists are located
under C:\ProgramData\Objectif Lune\.
