Set an FTPS Client Certificate from a PFX File

See more FTP Examples

Demonstrates the Chilkat Ftp2.SetSslClientCertPfx method, which loads a client certificate and private key from a PFX/P12 file. The first argument is the file path and the second is its password.

Note: The local paths are relative to the application's current working directory. Absolute paths may also be used. Supply the paths appropriate to your own environment.

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    //  Demonstrates the Ftp2.SetSslClientCertPfx method, which loads a client certificate and private
    //  key from a PFX/P12 file.  The 1st argument is the PFX file path and the 2nd is its password.

    let ftp = CkoFtp2()!

    ftp.hostname = "ftp.example.com"
    ftp.username = "myFtpLogin"

    //  Normally you would not hard-code the password in source.  You should instead obtain it
    //  from an interactive prompt, environment variable, or a secrets vault.
    ftp.password = "myPassword"

    //  Use explicit FTPS (AUTH TLS) on the standard FTP port.
    ftp.authTls = true

    //  Provide the PFX client certificate before connecting.  The password should come from a secure
    //  source rather than being hard-coded.
    var pfxPassword: String? = "myPfxPassword"
    success = ftp.setSslClientCertPfx(pfxPath: "qa_data/client.pfx", pfxPassword: pfxPassword)
    if success == false {
        print("\(ftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    success = ftp.connect()
    if success == false {
        print("\(ftp.lastErrorText!)")
        return

    print("Connected with a PFX client certificate.")
