I want to upload my illustrations using SFTP.
It worked successfully since yesterday. Now that option disappeared and I can't connect to SFTP server using existing credentials anymore.

Thanks for your message. I would like to inform you that only qualified accounts can use SFTP to upload files.If you do not see the SFTP upload option in the contributor portal, you will need to use the drag and drop method and upload your files directly via the portal. To do this, click the upload button in the upper right corner, then simply drag and drop your files into the blue upload circle.
Details regarding the criteria for qualifying for the SFTP upload option can't be specified.

This is what Adobe also told me, but when I upload a file using my portal as they instructed, this is what happens: I get an ERROR even though my file is valid. The portal says my file is invalid. I don't know how to upload my files at this point if this restriction continues indefinitely.

 

Adobe, I hope you can bring back the previous method that allowed us contributors to freely use SFTP like we used to. We are willing to follow the platform's guidelines, but when I upload a file through the portal as for instruction, I encounter errors and the file is not accepted. Unlike before, when a warning appeared on the portal, the upload through SFTP was still successful.

Create a small test file. Upload that. If you get an error, upload that test file here. We will have a look into it.

Same happened to me and my wife. Different acocunts. It is definitely a new bug. It is definitely not a cache thing, nobody ever logged in there from the laptop i've tested. Tried switching to other network as well.  Region: Turkey

I still can do that:

Check if it is a browser issue:

  • clear cache and cookies.
  • disable ad blocker
  • change the browser
  • change the network
  • change the computer

No. Nothing from this list helps.
As I mentioned, I lost not only the link in the UI, but as well SFTP connection that worked before.
