Automatically Importing Ack Files via an FTP Integration ✪

Acknowledgement files can be provided to you via FTP or SFTP, so you can direct Curve to automatically retrieve these straight from your society's database without any human interference.

In this case, Curve will scan, on a daily basis, for new files in this FTP folder and import these via our Bulk Upload tool. Any newly imported Acknowledgement files will appear on your Acknowledgements page and will be tagged as New.

To set up such an integration, please go to Settings > Integrations & FTP > Acknowledgement FTP Tab.

The below fields will need to be completed.

Name - Here you can name the FTP integration for your own reference.

Type - Here you select the type of FTP. Select the type that matches the FTP provided.

Host - The FTP's URL where your Acknowledgement files will be hosted. Typically this will begin with 'ftp.' and should not contain 'http://' or 'ftp://'.

Username - Your username with the FTP.

Password - Your password with the FTP.

Root Directory - In which folder on the FTP should Curve look for Acknowledgement files? Leave blank for server root.

Port - Here you will need to specify the port number

Once an integration is set up, Curve will scan the FTP for all existing files. Any new files that are added to the FTP from that point in time onwards will be imported to your Acknowledgement page.

Please be aware that at the moment MusicMark includes both CWR and ACK in the same folder, which is causing Curve to ingest both files and always error the CWR files, as they are not recognised as Society ACK files.
