Transition WinSCP operations to SSH.Net

I am also interested in documentation/guidance on transitioning from WinSCP to SSH.NET. According to OneStream SIC documentation, WinSCP will be phased out in a future release.

Hello!

  Great question; WinSCP, indicated by the name, has dependencies on Windows which will unlikely be used in as an underpinning operating system in future releases as some context as to the why.

We have some details and examples on how to use the SSH.NET library outlined in the 8.5 SIC connector guide (Use Smart Integration Connector) with a simple example below.

The libraries are quite similar.

                    }
     }
                // SCP Example

     {
