SFTP File Exchange Integration
The SFTP File Exchange integration enables batch data exchange with Wellhub using structured files (CSV or XLSX) transferred over Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). It is best suited for organizations that prefer file-based integration or whose HR systems can generate periodic export files.
