Hello Gebi,
Thank you for replying and that's a great answer! Dan Fandrich got back to me earlier with the same information and I'll put it to use.
However, I did open a ticket for an enhancement. My understanding is that after the SFTP directory listing retrieval, we must issue separate SFTP checks for each file, which could probably be improved.
I opened an issue to see if a new flag could be used to send back the file name bundled with the files other attributes.
Best Regards,
Mike Loutris
