Implement an Integration to Send a PDF/CSV Document Downloaded from an SFTP Server to an External REST API that Accepts Only application/octet-stream as the Content Type

In an orchestrated integration, the FTP adapter is only supported as an invoke connection. Implement this use case by selecting either an App Driven Orchestration or Scheduled Orchestration integration on the Integration Style dialog.

The following example provides a high level overview on how to implement this use case as a scheduled orchestration.
