Data Imports from SFTP with automatic updating
backlog

A client would like to have automated data imports into Displayr from a secure FTP (SFTP). They currently manually update project data everyday for financial institutions, so an automated data update would significantly reduce the amount of manual work they are currently doing in Displayr.
Due to their company protocols and the type of data they work with (banking) they are only able to store data in secure locations. For them, this has meant either SFTP or Google Drive (but this has limited storage space).

DataExperts is looking for a secure(r) way to upload and update Data Sets in Displayr.
The FTP approach isn't secure enough.

There is no pre-built function to connect and download data from SFTP servers, but I note that there are R-packages that can help with this (e.g. RCurl).
