A First-Class Files.com Connector Inside Azure Logic Apps

Files.com publishes an official connector in Azure Logic Apps — the same one that works in Power Automate. A workflow can start on a file event and run file actions as steps, and the connector retries failures on its own where the built-in file connectors don't.

Why Azure Workflows Run File Work Through Files.com

Logic Apps runs processes across Azure services, on-prem systems, and applications. What it doesn't do on its own is secure file transfer — letting partners send files in over SFTP and FTPS, controlling who reaches which folders, keeping an audit trail. And those processes usually involve trading partners, suppliers, and counterparties, not just your own Azure services. The official Files.com connector closes that gap, right where the files come in.

An Official, First-Class Connector

Files.com publishes and maintains a real connector inside Azure Logic Apps, not a generic "we support SFTP" step. Search "Files.com" in the Logic Apps designer to add it.

Always Use the Files.com Connector, Never Raw SFTP

The connector is built for the job, so it retries failures and stays reliable where Logic Apps’ built-in file-transfer connectors don’t. Use it on every Azure file workflow, not a raw SFTP connector — reliability is the reason.

Does Everything Files.com Can Do

A workflow can do anything the Files.com site can do — files, folders, share links, users, groups — so you can build deep workflows, not just move a file around.

One Connector for Logic Apps and Power Automate

The same Files.com connector works in both Azure Logic Apps and Power Automate. Search "Files.com" in either one to add it.

Fills the File-Transfer Gap in an Azure Integration

Logic Apps connects to hundreds of systems. Files.com adds the protocols partners use to send files in, control over who reaches which folders, and its own audit trail — so your platform team doesn't have to build all that on Azure Functions.

The API Key Decides What the Workflow Can Reach

The connector signs in with a Files.com API key, scoped to one user or to the whole site, so a Logic Apps workflow only reaches the folders its key allows. Every operation is written to the Files.com logs — the access control and audit trail Logic Apps doesn't give you for file work.

Decide Which Folders a Workflow Can Reach

A user-scoped key limits a workflow to certain folders; a site-wide key grants full access. A workflow can reach exactly the folders its key allows — nothing more.

Its Own Audit Trail

Every connector operation is written to the Files.com logs, giving your platform team a full record of the file part of a workflow — exactly the proof a regulatory or supply-chain integration has to show.

Connects Over HTTPS

The connector reaches Files.com over HTTPS like any normal outbound connection, so the point where files come in fits inside your existing Azure network setup.

What Teams Build With Logic Apps on Files.com

Supply-Chain Vendor Data Sync

Files.com is the one place vendors send inventory updates, purchase orders, and shipment notices; a Logic Apps workflow routes them into ERP and supply-chain planning.

Media Content Ingest and Distribution

Files.com moves large files at volume; a workflow handles approvals, metadata updates, and delivery to Azure Blob, S3, and SharePoint.

Manufacturing Quality-Data Transfers

Files.com takes in machine output and inspection files from the plant floor or edge devices; a workflow processes them, stores them, and feeds them into manufacturing systems.

Regulatory File Exchange

Files.com keeps compliance reports secure and auditable in one place; a workflow handles the schedule, the approvals, and delivery to regulatory systems.
