How to make an SFTP connection with Delphi?

Question

I need to do a file transfer process inside my software, and the files are a little sensitive, so I would like to do via SFTP, so I have researched that there are some components (all the payments I've researched) that make use protocol.

I would like to know if you have a free component, or how to do it manually, if possible.

I don't understand the question. What exactly are you asking. — David Heffernan, Nov 07 '17 at 13:27
FTPS which is FTP over SSL, but not SFTP is supported by the included Indy components. — bummi, Nov 07 '17 at 14:30

Use the Indy sftp component. The Indy components are included in delphi since a while.

Alternativley you could try these activex method: https://www.activexperts.com/network-component/howto/sftp/delphi/

Like I said, this doesn't fit as an answer. It should be a comment. – David Heffernan Nov 07 '17 at 13:37

if you have less than 50 points of reputation, you are not allowed to write comments. the only way to give inputs are answers. Its not my system. Therefore i can only follow these rules. – C. Hediger Nov 07 '17 at 13:39
You didn't follow the rules. If you can't make comments, then you shouldn't write comments as an answer. That is the rule. – David Heffernan Nov 07 '17 at 13:54
i did not realized that my asnwer could be counted as a comment. since the question opener has accepted my answer it looks like it was one. – C. Hediger Nov 07 '17 at 13:59
No, the people asking the questions often don't understand how the site works either. See https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/214174 – David Heffernan Nov 07 '17 at 14:43

This is wrong. Indy doesn't have any SFTP client :-( – Marc Guillot Jun 22 '20 at 13:14
