Stored Procedures
Stored procedures are function-like interfaces that extend the functionality of the connector beyond simple SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE operations with FTP.
Stored procedures accept a list of parameters, perform their intended function, and then return any relevant response data from FTP, along with an indication of whether the procedure succeeded or failed.
CData Python Connector for FTP Stored Procedures
| Name | Description |
| DeleteFile | Deletes a specific file from the connected FTP server, which is useful for removing outdated or unwanted files during automated file management processes. |
| Download | Retrieves a file from the FTP server to the local system as a backup, or transfers a file from the FTP server for remote data ingestion. |
| MoveFile | Transfers a file from one directory to another on the FTP server. This is useful for organizing files into appropriate folders or for archiving after processing. |
| RenameFile | Renames a file on the FTP server without altering its location. This helps standardize naming conventions and resolve conflicts. |
| SendCommand | Executes a raw FTP command directly against the server, providing flexibility for advanced operations not covered by standard stored procedures. |
| Upload | Sends a file from the local system to the FTP server, often for the purpose of publishing new files, updates, or reports to remote environments. |
