This article shows how to access your File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server from a workflow in Azure Logic Apps with the FTP connector. You can then create automated workflows that run when triggered by events in your FTP server or in other systems and run actions to manage files on your FTP server.

For example, your workflow can start with an FTP trigger that monitors and responds to events on your FTP server. The trigger makes the outputs available to subsequent actions in your workflow. Your workflow can run FTP actions that create, send, receive, and manage files through your FTP server account using the following specific tasks:

You can use triggers that monitor events on your SFTP server and make output available to other actions. You can use actions that perform various tasks on your SFTP server. You can also have other actions in your logic app use the output from SFTP actions. For example, if you regularly retrieve files from your SFTP server, you can send email alerts about those files and their content by using the Office 365 Outlook connector or Outlook.com connector. If you're new to logic apps, review [What is Azure Logic Apps?](../logic-apps/logic-apps-overview.md)

To automate tasks that create and manage files on a [Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP)](https://www.ssh.com/ssh/sftp/) server using the [Secure Shell (SSH)](https://www.ssh.com/ssh/protocol/) protocol, you can create automated integration workflows by using Azure Logic Apps and the SFTP-SSH connector. SFTP is a network protocol that provides file access, file transfer, and file management over any reliable data stream.
