Offboard documents to a SFTP server

Scrive offers automatic archiving of your sealed documents through a SFTP server. To get started, reach out to your contact at Scrive or our Sales team.

How it works
As soon as all parties have completed their required actions and the document has been signed and sealed, it is automatically offboarded to a folder located at the root of your SFTP server environment.


Connect SFTP server for offboarding

  1. Log in to eSign Online.

  2. Navigate to Settings > Offboarding.

  3. Under SFTP, click Connect.

  4. Grant the privileges through Scrive.

  5. Fill out your SFTP credentials:

    Host: Public IP address (Server IP), alternatively add your server name
    Username: The username of your SFTP user
    Password: The password for your SFTP user
    Folder: The name you want the new off-boarding folder to have

  6. Click Save changes.

  7. Done! The status for the offboarding connection will now be set to Status: OK in Scrive.

Note that it can take up to 24 hours for the connection between Scrive and your SFTP server to be completed. Once connected, all of your sealed documents will automatically be archived within a few minutes in the folder in your server environment. Documents sealed prior to the offboarding connection will not be automatically archived.
