Hi,

Current PI Version doesnot support SFTP connections. But it does FTPS.

We need the Open-SSL tool kit for Key conversion so that we can create the public and pvt ket for the key based authentication.

This is needed to share the public keys to vendor , so that they can access the SFTP server.

SAP PI donnot support SFTP protocol. If you have a third party SFTP adapter and wanted to generate a keypair, you can use tools like PuttyGen.

But you need to download the tool on to the PI server to generate a key pair.

Instead, you can use the unix command to generate key pair (Recommended) -

ssh-keygen -t rsa
