# (S)FTP Trigger Node for n8n
The FTP Trigger node is a custom-built node for n8n that triggers a workflow on FTP or SFTP filesystem changes. The node listens to a specified FTP or SFTP server and triggers a workflow when a specific event occurs. Events can include file or folder creation, deletion, or updates. The node can monitor a specific folder or any file/folder in the filesystem.
[n8n](https://n8n.io/) is a [fair-code licensed](https://docs.n8n.io/reference/license/) workflow automation platform.
## Features
* Support for both FTP and SFTP protocols.
* Ability to trigger on various filesystem events.
* Support for watching specific files or folders.
## Installation
Follow the [installation guide](https://docs.n8n.io/integrations/community-nodes/installation/) in the n8n community nodes documentation.
## Events
* **File Created**: Triggered when a new file is created in the specified folder or directory.
