Help Studio

Hi,
I am able to connect to an sftp server using PEM key file(no password) for a specific userid in FileZilla, but my ftp activity(sftp turned on) code fails to establish connection using PEM keyfile. The error i get is connection timeout. Not sure whats wrong. Please help.

TIA
-DP

Hi @Daksha
Welcome to UiPath

use host name and port 22 check sftp is true set username and path to pem file leave password blank check if pem file is valid and accessible confirm no firewall or proxy is blocking try converting pem to ppk if needed or use custom ssh activity if still not working

Thank you for your input :), the issue seemed to be with the PEM file it seems. I was able to connect to another site with its associated PEM key file, and the same code worked just fine.
