Oceans Blue operate public and private File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers, primarily in order for our customers and prospects to submit large test data files to us for analysis.
You may upload files to our public FTP server with our permission, using the following connection information:If you're sending us a text file, it's always best to zip and encrypt the file
first. Not only will this help to ensure file integrity, but will deter snoopers.
Please note that this address is for our public server and we strongly recommend that any data transmitted is desensitised prior to
send.
From a formatting perspective, text fields should be quote delimited, and field
separators for variable length files should not be present in the data itself.
A most excellent field separator to use is the tilde [~] character. If you
require
a secure
area
to place your files, please contact your account manager who will arrange access
for you.
When your FTP is complete, you can email your account manager/technical contact with the file details, or alert customer services using this address ftp@oceansblue.co.uk.
