Question:

How can a connection be initiated to Vault FTP for Vault Bulk API?

 Answer:

Vault Bulk API allows for uploading and updating documents in bulk utilizing an FTP connection.

Use the following settings with an FTP client:

• Protocol: FTP (File Transfer Protocol)
• Encryption: Require explicit FTP over TLS (FTPS). This is a security requirement. The network infrastructure must support FTPS traffic.
• Port: This does not typically need to be added and defaults to Port 21
• Host: {DNS}.veevavault.com.
  • Example: “veepharm” is the DNS in veepharm.veevavault.com
• User: {DNS}.veevavault.com+{USERNAME}. This uses the same username that the user logs in with.
  • Example: veepharm.veevavault.com+tchung@veepharm.com.
• Password: Login password for this Vault. This is the same password used for standard login.
• Login Type: Normal
• Transfer File Type: Transfer files as binary
