Is it possible/ in the release plan to be able to connect to SFTP servers using a SSH Key file in Fabric?
I can temporarily connect using a username/password but the credentials expire so a key file in Key Vault is a better long-term strategy.
Thanks
Hi @BW_RFA
Thanks for using Microsoft Fabric Community.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
Currently, the SFTP connector in Microsoft Fabric does not support SSH public key authentication. Only Basic authentication is supported for SFTP connector in Fabric.
You can also refer this document for more information.
We have created a new idea so you can cast on vote on it and help us prioritize this work item: Microsoft Idea
