# SFTP Reports Integration

The SFTP Reports integration enables the secure, automated export of data from Asset Panda Pro to a specified folder on an external SFTP server. 

## Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

* Active Asset Panda Pro subscription
* Administrator access in Asset Panda Pro to configure the integration
* Access to an external SFTP server
* Authentication credentials (username/password or public key)
* SFTP folder structure prepared for uploads

### **Obtain SFTP connection details** <a href="#getting-sftp-connection-details" id="getting-sftp-connection-details"></a>

Asset Panda Pro does not provide SFTP hosting. The following SFTP connection values must be obtained from the administrator of the external SFTP server:&#x20;

* **SFTP Hostname**: IP address or domain of the SFTP server
* **Port**: Port number used by the SFTP server (commonly 22 or as specified)
* **Username**: User account on the SFTP server
* **Password**: Password for the SFTP user account (optional if using key-based authentication)
* **Destination Folder**: Full path to the directory where files are dropped

If using public key authentication, download the public key from Asset Panda Pro and install it on the server before initiating the connection.
