Publishing and Auto-update apps uisng SFTP in VB.net


Visual Studio 2022, has a feature in VB.NET applications to publish the app using FTP. but nowadays FTP and HTTP protocols are not supported by many providers due to their lack of security. is there any way to use SFTP and HTTPS for such reason? I need my program to check for updates daily and update automatically as needed. I know the VISUAL STUDIO 2022 has such a feature to check for updates in defined intervals but I don't know how to use it.
