STEP 1
Connect CSV and FTP
Save credentials in WEXTL once. We store them encrypted and reuse the authorization across every workflow [3]. No coding or API skills required.
CSV and FTP Integration
CSV is a WEXTL® built-in workflow node — it ships with the platform and drops straight into any FTP workflow you build. Pick a FTP trigger or action below, then add CSV to the canvas in one click. Full visual setup, 3 simple steps, no code and no extra credentials to configure.

How does the integration between CSV and FTP work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for CSV and FTP that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting CSV and FTP.
Connect your CSV and FTP accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when FTP's "Watch files / folders" fires, WEXTL can "Create CSV" in CSV. CSV has 2 actions (including Create CSV and Parse CSV); FTP has 5 actions (including Delete File, Download File, and List Files). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. CSV-to-FTP automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment CSV (or FTP) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your CSV + FTP automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
