All URL adapter parameters, that are specified on the <<URLAlias>> in the component diagram, can also be supplied dynamically via action script. Find below a list of all relevant parameters of the URL adapter and their description.

Noteinfo
iconfalse

With the URL adapter, it is possible to get and put messages via file transfer protocols: FTP, FTPS and SFTP. These protocols often get confused and mixed up due to the similarity in function and names. Please refer to Using the URL Adapter with the FTP Protocol and Related Protocols for a distinction and more information on the usage with the URL adapter.
