Introduction to Connection Profiles

A Connection Profile is a connection settings template to be used in Event Rules that contains the server connection settings. A profile includes the Profile Name, Description, and Connection details such as protocol, host address, credentials, proxy, socks, and so on. A Test button is provided to verify the specified connection options. After you've created the profile on the Site, you can specify it in Copy/Move and Download Actions so that you don't have to define it every time you create a Copy/Move or Download Event Rule. (Connection Profiles require HTTPS, SFTP, or FTPS to connect as the server.)

For more information about how the Connection Profiles are used, refer to Copy/Move (push) File to Host Action and Download (pull) File from Host Action.
