So, you have files you need to manage on servers. Maybe you're a developer. Maybe you're a system administrator. Maybe you're a contractor or freelancer. But you need to connect to a thing, and upload, download, or tweak the files on that thing.
- Install the Microsoft School Data Sync Toolkit. Download the tool from Microsoft School Data Sync Toolkit. Double-click the tool to run the wizard. On the Welcome page, choose Next. Accept the license agreement click Next, choose an installation path, and then choose Next.
- The secure file transfer protocol (SFTP) sync allows school districts to 'push' data to Clever. Districts generate five required CSV files (schools.csv, teachers.csv, students.csv, sections.csv and enrollments.csv) from their student information system (SIS) according to Clever's specified file format.
That's what Transmit is for.
Fast, reliable, easy to use, file and folder synchronisation software.
Transmit's big strength is its clean interface — our famous 'dual-pane' view is way faster than the Finder. But Transmit also has tons of very nice features like File Sync, which can mirror remote and local (or, now, local and local!) files in one click.
Sftp Sync Tool
Transmit also takes great care to let you organize your Servers for fast access. And with Panic Sync, you can sync them to all of your computers. Never type a server address again.
Now, long ago we'd call Transmit an 'FTP client', but today, with Transmit 5, we connect to lots of different server types and cloud services. For example, Amazon S3 dramatically changed the way files are served on the internet, and Transmit is a great way to manage your Amazon S3 buckets.
Put simply: Transmit lets you quickly and easily manage files on the internet.
Use SFTP and FTP features inside Atom, having the ability to upload and download files directly from inside Atom.
