No, not yet but we could provide an Intent to allow such feature. What parameters would you need to pass to Intent to make your FTP transfer ? Do plan plan to manage FTP host, login, password in your application ?

Hello,
Yes, I was thinking of managing the host / login / password within my application.
So the Intent would need those 3 params and the full paths of the file to transfer and of the remote directory.
thanks a lot for your really fast answer !!!
Best Regards,
Luc

When would you need it ? We don't plan this feature soon because we have others issues/features to implement. If you're willing to pay to have then we could make it happen sooner. If you're interested in then drop an email to support(at)lysesoft(dot)com

Hi ,
we are looking for intents for the following scenarios
1. Launch app (all the server settings are saved to the profile)
2. intent to connect to the server
3. download (will provide arguments, filename, location of source, location of destination)
4. upload (arguments same as above)
5. Disconnect

Do u think you can open-up the intents for the same ? Let me know how much it'd cost us to get that ?
