About File Server

File Server provides an embedded SFTP server within Oracle Integration, enabling organizations to focus on building integrations without needing to host and maintain a separate SFTP server.

Note:

Before use, File Server must be enabled for the Oracle Integration instance. Enabling File Server is a one time action completed in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure by an administrator with manage access to the instance. See Enable File Server in Using File Server in Oracle Integration Generation 2.
