Thanks very much - that's fixed the problem.

Your rationale about SFTP vs SCP definitely makes sense - looking forward to the SFTP action being updated!

I tried that - unfortunately SFTP doesn't allow transferring a whole folder in place (only file by file).

I had a really nice workflow with the SCP action for adding new subfolders to existing folders on the destination server, just by dragging the folder on the source onto Dropzone. It meant I didn't need to take any further action on the destination for the files to be in the right place.

I know you can hold down Option to create a zip file with the SFTP action, but that just drops the zip file at the destination, which is not the same end result. I'd need to log into the destination server and unzip it each time.

Your immediate suggestion that I should use SFTP makes it sounds like the SCP action is not going to be fixed - is that correct?

I have an SCP upload action to a server on my local network, which has worked just fine for several years.

Suddenly (presumably after a Dropzone update...?) it has stopped working. Nothing else has changed, either with the machine that's running Dropzone or the server the SCP action tarets.

Version is Dropzone 4.2.7 installed via Setapp.

Here's the error output when I try to run the action:
