Hi Experts,
I am willing to transfer files from a remote SFTP server to local linux server and my command is below:
Is there any problem with my code below as an example?
method1:
%let ftpcmd = "sftp -i path of SSHKEY username@sftpserverdetail:/sftppath/file.csv /localpath/file.csv";
filename ftppipe pipe &ftpcmd.;
data _null_;
infile ftppipe;
input;
put _infile_;
run;
method2:
%let ftpcmd = "scp username@sftpserverdetail:/remotesftppath/file.csv /localpath/file.csv";
filename ftppipe pipe &ftpcmd.;
data _null_;
infile ftppipe;
input;
put _infile_;
run;
Add "2>&1" to your commands, like
"sftp -i path of SSHKEY username@sftpserverdetail:/sftppath/file.csv /localpath/file.csv 2>&1"
This will reroute stderr to stdout, so you can catch diagnostic messages in the DATA step. After that, run your code and read the log.
