THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE APPLIES TO:
SYMPTOM
SFTP connections failing in Automate 2024 after upgrading to 8.2.0.46
CAUSE
Automate is using KEX algorithms disabled/ not supported in EFT.
RESOLUTION/WORKAROUND
The workaround solution for this is to either use EFT's connection profiles and connect to remote clients using EFT's SFTP protocol or EFT, or the remote server must have the following KEXes enabled/supported. These are required and only supported by Automate:
- diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1
- diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
- diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
- diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
​Refer to Upgrading the Advanced Workflow Module for more details of upgrade the Advanced Workflow module with EFT.
