Credentials required to move the files in and out of XI server !

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

              Please give me a overview of what are the credentials required to move the files around XI server.

If I want to move the file to a third party - I need FTP server name, Port, User Name and Password ?

If I want to send a file to XI server, do I need the same stuff from XI Server ?

Thanks

Yes you are correct for moving file to a FTP location. You require FTP server name (HOST), Port, User Name and Password.

But in case of sending file to application server (XI Server) you need not all these stuff rather you require a folder in aplication server i.e. Source Directory   and file name.

In case you are not able to get the file from Source Directory then check for the authorisation of the user like SAPserviceSID SID = name of PI system to read that location.
