## How to Send Data to Daasity using the Daasity SFTP Server

### How to set up Transmit software (recommended by Daasity) that will enable you to send files to Daasity via SFT

Setting up the SFTP takes 2 steps:

1. Configuring a connection to the Daasity SFTP Server
2. Transferring files to Daasity

{% hint style="success" %}
**You can watch a walk-through of these steps** [**here in this video**](https://youtu.be/pduEhxq0Xbc)
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**These instructions assume the user has already been set up in the Daasity SFTP server.**  
{% endhint %}

This means:

* The merchant user has completed the instructions to generate an SSH key, simple docs on [**setting up SSH and DB connection here**](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q_1cnUR8OxG0HjAj92zrSPLpRkPm8gNpv2D_SdrFIZQ/edit#heading=h.bx20h6b2n59d)
* The merchant user has submitted the public key, of the SSH key pair to Daasity (Email: <Suport@daasity.com>
* Daasity DevOps team has created the SFTP user with the supplied SSH public key
* Daasity team has sent the SFTP user credential and SFTP folder to the merchant user

{% hint style="danger" %}
The convention for the folder is the merchant account id. e.g. **daasity-sftp/1f1ff7dc-dd0c-42a6-82ea-d166e4565753**
{% endhint %}

We recommend using Transmit 5 (by Panic Software): [transmit web site.](https://www.panic.com/transmit/)
