FTP File Upload Automation

This workflow is ideal for:

• Small Business Owners: Those who need to automate file uploads to an FTP server without manual intervention.
• Freelancers: Individuals who frequently share files with clients via FTP and want to streamline the process.
• Developers: Tech-savvy users looking to integrate FTP file management into their applications or workflows.
• Data Analysts: Professionals who require regular data uploads to FTP servers for analysis or reporting purposes.

This workflow addresses the challenge of manually uploading files to an FTP server, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors. By automating this process, users can:

• Save Time: Eliminate the need for manual uploads, allowing users to focus on more critical tasks.
• Reduce Errors: Minimize the risk of human error during file transfers.
• Enhance Efficiency: Ensure that files are consistently uploaded as needed without additional effort.

1. Manual Trigger: The workflow begins when the user clicks 'execute', initiating the process.
2. HTTP Request: The workflow makes an HTTP request to download the file from a specified URL (https://n8n.io/n8n-logo.png). The response is formatted as a file.
3. FTP Upload: The downloaded file is uploaded to the FTP server at the path /upload/n8n_logo.png.
4. FTP List: After the upload is complete, the workflow lists the files in the /upload/ directory on the FTP server to confirm the upload and check the contents.
