Location Type From the drop-down list, select the location type this CSV upload requires. The
options are:
SFTP – A frequently used backup technique
Windows Share – the MS Windows share technique (in a Windows environment,
most people will use this)
Host
If you are using Windows Share, enter the IP address of the computer on which the
share file will appear and the directory separated by a forward slash (/). If you are
using SFTP, enter just the host name (which can be just the IP address) without the
directory.
User Name
Enter the user name allowing access to this location.
Password
Enter the password allowing access to this location.
Location Enter the name of the subdirectory where the backup files are stored on the host
computer as shown in the above example.
If the file is to be located in a subdirectory of the share, use this format:
/directory_name/
Notice that the directory name needs both a leading slash and a trailing slash.
If the file is to be located in the top level of the share (no subdirectory), use this
format:
/directory_name
Notice that there is only one leading slash required. There must be an entry in the
Location field for the backup to work.
Delimiter
Select the delimiter used to separate column data for this data upload.
Text Qualifier Select the punctuation used to specify text for this data upload.
Date Format Select the format to be used for this data upload.
