Thank you @Martin this has resolved our issue.

It's likely due to the doubled-double quotes in your put command: 
put -delete ".\Downloads\...d79d255c4b09.xml" ""cacs/""

Use just "cacs/", or even no quotes at all: cacs/.

and this is when we do a manual drag and drop via the GUI (which works fine and the files get coped over)

Script adding an extra "/"

Hi,

We have a bat script set up to move files from a local folder to a SFTP site using a program called Datamotion adapter which executes WinSCP to copy the files.
It is moving files to a folder called cacs on the SFTP site but we are getting the following error in the logs

Cannot create remote file '/"/cacs/"'.
No such file or directory.

The cacs folder already exists but it looks like the script is trying to add an extra / and trying to create a new folder. But we cant see anywhere in the script where it is doing this.
Has anyone come across this issue before?
