New in SaaSwhen defining the parameters of the ftpConnection variable ( Timeout property). Note: This feature is only available from WINDEV Suite SaaS 2025 - Update 2.
Rights of users Only a user who has read rights on the FTP server can get information about the files or the directories located on an FTP server. In most cases, the read rights are granted to the "anonymous" users. Relative and absolute path The notions of relative path and absolute path are very important in an FTP application. - A path beginning with a slash is considered an absolute path. This path is relative to the root of the FTP server (server-specific parameter).
ex: /pub/user/JULIA - If the path does not begin with a slash, it is considered a relative path, i.e. the path relative to the current directory. This current directory can be obtained or changed using FTPCurrentDir.
When connecting to an FTP site, the initial directory (the "base directory" of the user) is not necessarily found at the root of the FTP server. Therefore, we recommend that you use relative paths. Business / UI classification: Business Logic
