Secure File Transfer
2 min
surescripts supports the secure ftp method for file transfer file processing guidelines the files received by surescripts must be in an ascii line feed terminated format typically, the file transfer methods will inherently perform character set and record termination translation the maximum file size a customer should send to surescripts is 1 gb if a customer needs to send a file larger than 1 gb, they should notify surescripts to ensure we will be able to process the file note compression should be used when possible while sending files to surescripts the preferred file type is gzip, but other supported file types are zip and bzip secure ftp the surescripts response file naming convention will closely match the file name as transfer to surescripts, with the addition of a timestamp value appended response files can be pulled by the customer using client software that is compatible with the surescripts secure ftp server if the customer has a compatible secure ftp server, surescripts can optionally push response files to the customer's secure ftp server contact your surescripts representative for more information on the secure ftp process
