If you see You do not have permission to view this page, ask an admin to make the change, or to invite you with the Admin role. ; To exchange files with Mention Me over SFTP, add your SSH public key and the IP addresses you will connect from, then create the folders (feeds) you need. You can also encrypt your feeds. ## Add Your SSH Key and IP Addresses SSH keys and IP address allowlist on the SSH keys & IP page Go to **Settings > Integrations & data > Data feeds**, then select **SSH keys & IP**. Under **SSH public keys**, click **Add SSH key**. Paste your SSH public key (for example, one starting `ssh-ed25519` or `ssh-rsa`), then click **Submit key**. This sends your key to the Mention Me team. Under **IP address allowlist**, click **Add IP addresses**. Enter the public IP addresses or CIDR ranges you will connect from, then click **Submit allowlist**. This sends your addresses to the Mention Me team. Private (internal) addresses such as `10.x`, `172.16-31.x` and `192.168.x` can't be added. The Mention Me team applies your SSH key and IP addresses. This can take up to **two working days**. ## Add Your Folders Each folder on the SFTP server is a **feed**. Inbound feeds are for files you send to Mention Me. Outbound feeds are for reports Mention Me sends to you. Feeds setup page showing an inbound feed with Pending setup status Go to **Settings > Integrations & data > Data feeds**, then select **Feeds setup**. Click **Add inbound feed** or **Add outbound feed**. Enter a **Name** and **Description** for the folder. To encrypt it, turn on **Mark this feed as encrypted**. An encrypted inbound feed rejects files that aren't encrypted with its key. An encrypted outbound feed won't send you files until it has an active public key. Add inbound feed dialog with Name, Description and Mark this feed as encrypted turned on Click **Create feed**. Repeat for each folder you need. A new feed shows **Pending setup** while the Mention Me team sets it up on the SFTP server. This can take up to **two working days**. It changes to **Active** when it is ready to transfer files. ## Set Up Encryption (Optional) If you marked a feed as encrypted, give it a PGP key. Go to **Settings > Integrations & data > Data feeds**, then select **Encryption keys**. Encryption keys settings on the Inbound tab, with a feed key marked Active For files you send to Mention Me, Mention Me generates the key pair and you encrypt your files with the public key. On the **Inbound** tab, click **Generate inbound key**. Under **Feed**, select the encrypted folder. Or turn on **Set as your default key (covers all inbound feeds)** to use one key for every inbound feed without its own key. Generate inbound encryption key dialog with a feed selected Click **Generate key**, then **Download public key**. Use it to encrypt the files you send to that folder. For reports Mention Me sends to you, upload your own PGP public key and Mention Me encrypts the files with it. On the **Outbound** tab, click **Import outbound key**. Under **Feed**, select the encrypted folder. Or turn on **Set as your default key (covers all outbound feeds)** to use one key for every outbound feed without its own key. Import outbound encryption key dialog with a feed selected and a field for the public key Paste your PGP public key under **Public key**, then click **Import key**. See [How to Manage Encryption Keys](/knowledge-app/settings/integrations/encryption-keys) for rotating keys and key history. ## Connect Once your SSH key and IP addresses are approved, you can connect. See [SFTP Connection](/developer-docs/integration/mention-me/sftp-connection) for connection details and the folder structure. ## See Also Add inbound and outbound SFTP folders. Copy, review or add more keys and IP addresses. This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
