About the FTP/SFTP integration

Add the FTP/SFTP piece to a flow, connect your account once, and the rest of the builder can read from it and write to it. Because the piece is open source you can run it on our cloud or self-host it, and combine FTP/SFTP with 760+ other apps in the same flow.

FTP/SFTP, answered.

Yes. Activepieces is open source and free to start, and the FTP/SFTP piece is included on every plan, from the free cloud tier to any self-hosted deployment.

Add the FTP/SFTP piece to a flow, then authenticate with Custom auth. Once connected, its 1 trigger and 8 actions are available anywhere in the builder.

"New File" can start a flow that runs "Create File from Text", and you can chain FTP/SFTP together with any of 760+ other apps and AI steps in between.

Yes. Activepieces is fully self-hostable, so you can run the FTP/SFTP piece on your own infrastructure with your connections and your data staying in your environment.

Yes. Every piece you connect can be exposed over one Activepieces MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or any MCP client can call FTP/SFTP actions as tools.
