In 4.3.2, the command in is Commands menu.
Though you SHOULD NOT use 4.3.2. You need to upgrade!

thanks for update.

we are using WINSCP 4.3.2 version. I couldn't able to find the option which you were telling.


open sftp://user:password@example.com/ -hostkey=""

do we need to give the private key in the hostkey value??.

If you are using 5.7.2. version, click 'Session' tab in the Menu, then click 'Server/Protocol Information'. 'Server host key fingerprint' can be seen at the bottom of the 'Protocol' screen.

Thanks for the update.

what should be given in the hostkey value.

open sftp://user:password@example.com/ -hostkey=""

Just create a simple upload script and schedule it to run in regular intervals (or in a loop from a batch file).

1. Files will be polled from local machine.
2. I need to transfer multiple files from local machine to remote SFTP location.

Could you provide sample script for the above requirement.

What specific problem are you having with the task? Where are you polling the files from? A local or remote location?

Hi All,

Poll the files from a particular location and send to target location using SFTP (WINSCP).

Thanks in Advance.
