Using a Copy from SFTP Job Type

Use the Copy from SFTP job type to copy a file directly from a secure SFTP server to an Oracle Fusion Cloud EPM environment.

Note:

You cannot copy from SFTP to the Outbox.

See Outbound IP Addresses of Cloud EPM Data Centers and Regions in the Operations Guide for the outbound IP addresses of OCI regions.
