This element includes the parameters for an HTTP file transfer connection including BasicAuthentication and URLConnection configuration items. Any number of fragments can be configured and are distinguished by YADE according to their name attribute. A fragment is referenced by a transfer profile using the value of the HTTPFragmentRef ref attribute. This attribute identifies the current fragment. Any number of fragments can be used and are distinguished by YADE according their name. A fragment is referenced by a transfer profile using the value of this attribute. This attribute identifies the current fragment. Any number of fragments can be used and are distinguished by YADE according their name. A fragment is referenced by a transfer profile using the value of this attribute. A URL connection specifies parameters such as a Hostname, Port, Account by which a connection is established within the URL. The use of URLs depends on the server system, e.g. the following protocols and configuration items could be used: A URL connection specifies parameters such as a Hostname, Port, Account by which a connection is established within the URL. The use of URLs depends on the server system, e.g. the following protocols and configuration items could be used: The BasicAuthentication element specifies the credentials for authentication with a server, e.g. using an FTP protocol or a Proxy Protocol. Child elements include: BasicAuthentication is available for a number of File Transfer Protocols and Proxy Protocols. The drawback with BasicAuthentication is that passwords are stored directly in configuration files. In order to avoid this you could switch to using File Transfer Protocols that allow SSHAuthentication, e.g. SFTP. Account for authentication at one of the systems involved in file transfer, e.g. an FTP or SFTP server. Usually the account corresponds to a user name. Should the respective server system be part of a Windows domain then the syntax domain\account can be used. Support for KeePass versions 1 and 2. Note: Availability starting with YADE-464. Referencing CredentialStore fields. Note: Availability starting with YADE-481. Referencing a field in the CredentialStore is effected by the following syntax: cs://[entry_path]@entry_field where <Hostname> element: Examples Password for authentication at a server that is involved in file transfer, e.g. with an FTP or SFTP protocol or Proxy protocol that makes use of BasicAuthentication. Passwords are not displayed in the YADE log files. A drawback is that passwords are visible in YADE configuration files. In order to avoid this you could switch to using File Transfer Protocols that allow SSHAuthentication, e.g. SFTP. Support for KeePass versions 1 and 2. Note: Availability starting with YADE-464. Referencing CredentialStore fields. Note: Availability starting with YADE-481. Referencing a field in the CredentialStore is effected by the following syntax: cs://[entry_path]@entry_field where <Hostname> element: Examples This element references the fragment that is used to insert configuration items from a secure store into a file transfer configuration. Any number of reusable CredentialStoreFragment elements can be configured and are distinguished by YADE based on their name attribute. The reference to a fragment is based on the value of the ref attribute of this element to the corresponding name attribute of the CredentialStoreFragment element. Support for a jump host. Note: Availability starting with YADE-488. This attribute identifies the fragment that is used for inserting secure configuration items. Any number of reusable JumpFragment elements can be configured and are distinguished by YADE based on their name attribute. This element identifies the JumpFragment that is applied for use of a jump host in a file transfer. The reference to a fragment is based on the value of the ref attribute of this element to the corresponding name attribute of the JumpFragment element. This attribute identifies the fragment that is used for a jump host. Proxies can make use of different protocols, a HTTPProxy - as the name suggests - will use the HTTP protocol HTTP proxies optionally support authentication. HTTP headers let the client and the server pass additional information with an HTTP request or response. This parameter specifies a HTTP header, which is used for a HTTP(S) file transfer.
