Prepare Your Tridion Connection

Before you create a Tridion connection, complete these prerequisites. The Tridion connector uses a Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) staging area to transfer your content to Data 360 and requires Secure Shell (SSH) key authentication. Create a staging area, generate an SSH key pair, and gather your connection details.

Find Your Username and Hostname

After you create the staging area, Data 360 provides a username and hostname. Tridion requires this information to configure your connector in Tridion.

In Data 360, click Setup, and select Data Cloud Setup.
From the left navigation menu, click Staging Area.
From the staging area details page, locate the Username and Host Name.
Copy and save these values in a secure location. You need to give this information to your Tridion Support Representative.

Configure Tridion Publishing

Contact your Tridion support representative. Ask them to help you configure a method to publish content to the Data 360 staging area over SFTP.

You will need to give the support representative:

The Host Name from your Staging Area.
The Username from your Staging Area.
The Private Key from your Generate an SSH Key Pair
