Is SFTP possible on ESP32 using Arduino IDE?
Posted: Mon Feb 16, 2026 5:13 am
Hi,
I am using ESP32 with Arduino IDE and I need to download a bin files from a server(S3 bucket) using SFTP.
I tried using libssh, but it only supports:
SSH
SCP
It does not support SFTP.
My server only allows SFTP, so SCP will not work.
Is it possible to use SFTP on ESP32?
Is there any library available for Arduino IDE?
Has anyone successfully implemented SFTP on ESP32?
Any suggestions or alternative solutions are welcome.
Thank you.
