How to Delete and List files with SFTP

Question

is there a way to be able to interact with an SFTP server to perform these two operations:

• Delete a file from the server
• List the files that are in a folder on the server

Within the documentation I do not see these functionalities:

Answer 1

Reading the GxWiki there is a warning about the use of this module. I think you have two options:

1. Develop an external object with a standard library.
2. Use some command line tool like you could see here https://soic.iupui.edu/technology/kb/sftp/

If you want to do the second way, you can use the shell command: https://wiki.genexus.com/commwiki/servlet/wiki?8502,Shell%20function
