Process

First connection

  1. Go to the Collect reviews > Send review requests menu
  2. Choose SFTP
  3. Click on the button to create your SFTP account
  4. Once the account is created, you can view your SFTP settings (Host, username, Port, Path, password). They will automatically be there, you just need to copy/paste

You also have the possibility to test the connection.

SFTP Architecture:

By default, the partition structure is defined as follows:

 

Folders

Description

.../orders/

Main drop folder

.../orders/success/

Successfully Processed Files Subfolder

.../orders/error/

Subfolder of files processed in error *

An error in the  file: You will find an error report with the description of the problem in order to be able to correct it.

Any deposit in the /orders/ folder will be processed by our system the day after the deposit between 1am and 3am (UTC+1 or UTC+2).

Files will end up in the /success/ or /error/ subfolders depending on their validity. 

In order to be able to send us your data by SFTP, remember to authorize the following list of IPs: 52.214.31.102, 34.251.16.171, 34.252.230.124 and 34.251.217.121

It is possible to use a single SFTP for several dissociated accounts within the framework of an international collection or in a company/subsidiary system.

Here is an example: 

Country

Folder

France

.../fr_FR/orders/

France

.../fr_FR/orders/success/

France

.../fr_FR/orders/error/

USA

.../en_US/orders/

USA

.../en_US/orders/success/

USA

.../en_US/orders/error/

If you have more than one account, you must complete the procedure on each of them.

File format

The characteristics to be respected are the following:

File type 

CSV

Encodage

UTF-8 sans BOM

Délimiteur

";" (semicolon separator)

Date format

AAAA-MM-JJ / jj-mm-aaaa

You have the option of setting the deadlines for sending reviews from Collection of reviews – Configuration, for brand and product reviews by default. If you want to have a different delay per product, you can add it to your csv file, in the delay_product column
