Step-by-step guide

How to connect HTTP / Webhook to SFTP (key-based auth)

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active HTTP / Webhook account with API credentials
  • An active SFTP (key-based auth) account with repository access
  • A free DeskFerry account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
Start setup
  1. Step 01

    Create your DeskFerry account

    Sign up at deskferry.app — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

  2. Step 02

    Authenticate HTTP / Webhook

    Click "Add Connection" and select HTTP / Webhook from the app directory. You'll be redirected to HTTP / Webhook's authorization page. Grant DeskFerry access to your cloud resources and services. You select which services and regions the integration can interact with.

  3. Step 03

    Authenticate SFTP (key-based auth)

    Same process for SFTP (key-based auth). Click "Add Connection," select SFTP (key-based auth), and authorize access. Grant DeskFerry access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

  4. Step 04

    Choose your trigger

    Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: webhook received in http / webhook or new commit pushed in sftp (key-based auth). The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

  5. Step 05

    Configure the action

    Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create issue in sftp (key-based auth). Map the data fields between HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth) so the right information lands in the right place.

  6. Step 06

    Test and activate

    Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth). Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — DeskFerry handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect HTTP / Webhook to SFTP (key-based auth)?

Sign up for a free DeskFerry account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth) via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing infrastructure & cloud events to developer tools actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth)?

You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new HTTP / Webhook events to SFTP (key-based auth) actions, trigger SFTP (key-based auth) updates when HTTP / Webhook data changes, create SFTP (key-based auth) records from HTTP / Webhook events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.

Is the HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth) integration free?

DeskFerry's 7-day free trial is enough to prove the workflow out. If your HTTP / Webhook-to-SFTP (key-based auth) workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my HTTP / Webhook data secure when connected to SFTP (key-based auth)?

Yes. DeskFerry uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your HTTP / Webhook or SFTP (key-based auth) passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your infrastructure & cloud data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your DeskFerry dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth)?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either HTTP / Webhook or SFTP (key-based auth). For example, create a workflow where HTTP / Webhook events update SFTP (key-based auth), and a separate one where SFTP (key-based auth) changes sync back to HTTP / Webhook. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect HTTP / Webhook and SFTP (key-based auth)?

No coding is required. DeskFerry's builder is prompt-based: you describe the trigger and what should happen in plain English, and the agent handles the field mapping.
