SFTP file transfers occasionally fail..

Post by renders »

Hello.. I am using the SFTP actions for uploading several files to a website. For the most part, it works fine.. However, I occasionally have Open for write:failure. I think it may be due to file locks on the source file.. I am transferring every minute and the source files are written to quite frequently.

Is there a way to retry on error?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

Put Wait for File action before uploading.
Specify source file to check.
This action waits until the file is free to use.

I've noticed that the Help file and online help are having outdated info. The part of "wait accessibility / appearance" is not mentioned, including the screenshot.
