Let the conversation begin!

Hi David,

What is Managed File Transfer (MFT)?

Is it a tool to transfer files between partners? Can you please share some more information (like links or docs) in detail.

Also can you let us know in which version of wM do we have this product integrated.

I am very eager to know about MFT.

Where is webClient GUI? Is it integrated with MWS or IS admin page or we have some different UI for that. If there is a different UI from where can I find the URL for that.

All MFT administration is done via MWS portal.

HTH,
RMG

After configuring the MWS and everything. WebClient GUI is the point for uploading and downloading files right??? I mean to ask is it the point to kick start the File Transfer process???

Yes where ever you are pointing the dirs to pick/upload and send the files via FTP.

HTH,
RMG

I have configured MWS for a basic sample run. But to test it (for sharing, uploading or downloading Files)I need to log in to webClient UI, which I am not able to do (both with my credentials OR default Administrator, manage credentials). Its allowing me to login , but I am forced to log out after a moment. I believe we can’t have a sample run without resolving this issue right ???

Does administrator and manage is the default credentails for that Or Do we have something else for it. Please help me out ASAP.

Can some have any idea on the issue mentioned above. its Kind of urgent.

Aditya,

You may have better luck posting the question as it’s own topic in the forum instead of in the “welcome” thread as more people may see it. Another option may be to contact support.

Dave
