Create a connection with an FTP server

Solution

We need a username, host key, password GUID, and URL of the FTP server to create a connection with Netsuite and FTP.

Generate host key and Password GUID using this Suitelet below

See an example below

var userName = 'brenna.mitchell@oxtools.com'; // username of FTP server that used for logging in to FTP
                var URL = 'in1.hostedftp.com'; // URL of FTP server

                var hostKey = 'AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQC4ZIMHa5GWDaRmXAxhG8rAU6VrSNSanEDVk2O+h22dJIPZsaNl9jc0kll4WeB4hbsjISiyjAKRpK6oHiGF8I2ImRFFjGS7/fUnoLMPEWF2asJ6YnsTZvOX+wR1aCJNAg9nwhJVH6uznVmQ/M2ZrkY64G7C2UHY+hQYHouLRRdY6KiQuM4R/Z5SdN5BKjJhKLYHU5p/GaU7n/JwzkUHrVazdvNEZaQhiQpIK+YmnHZZAbyzY9WHn/lsQ4KskFkkadhUUKws2J8D0uIlLJZW0XwG2mpjXt+sTUfQdL94jWo+/sdvGdjdL0cHXVxOUpO7K07moIxsPqNvCNzZYBugm/0v'
                var passGUID = '1a3e355f43564c2c95c4d4d0d0f2e3f5';
                
                var connection = sftp.createConnection({
                    username: userName,
                    passwordGuid: passGUID,
                    url: URL,
                    directory: '/',
                    hostKey: hostKey
                });

                log.debug("connection", connection);
