Hi All,

We are facing an issue with IFS Cloud when uploading XML files to a third-party SFTP server hosted by a bank.
When IFS Connect uploads the file to the SFTP server, it follows this pattern:

Initially uploads the file as:
ISO20022_55c5746a-XXXXXX.xml.part

Then attempts to rename it to:
ISO20022_55c5746a-XXXXXX.xml

It seems the rename operation might be failing or getting blocked, possibly due to security policies on the bank’s SFTP server. In some cases, the connection is dropped or blocked entirely after this step.

Has anyone else experienced this behavior with IFS Connect and SFTP?

Is there a configuration in IFS Cloud to avoid using .part extensions?

Skip or handle rename conflicts gracefully?

Any best practices when uploading to strict SFTP servers (e.g., those that don’t allow overwrite or rename of existing files)?

How can we ensure a smooth, secure transfer without triggering security measures?

Any insights, experiences, or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance
