Upload files to FTPS
Description
Upload Files to FTPS transfers local files to a remote server using FTP Secure (FTPS) with SSL/TLS encryption. Use this process entry when your process needs to securely upload files to a server that requires encrypted FTP connections — for example, delivering compliance reports or sensitive data exports. It supports both implicit and explicit encryption, proxy connections, and configurable connection types.
