File Exchange

If you need to exchange files with Figure, whether that is one-way or bi-directional, we have a few options on how this can be done.

NOTE: Data Export files can only be delivered to a storage solution hosted by the partner. Figure does not host the storage solution for you. All reports are also available for download from Lead Portal.

Files can optionally be GPG encrypted, please see Data Encryption for more information.

note

Figure does not require file transfers from all partners and will be requested if necessary.

The recommended file exchange option is Google Cloud Storage, but we can also use AWS S3, and if absolutely required, SFTP.

SFTP is not recommended as Google Cloud Storage and AWS S3 offer improved reliability and simpler lifecycle management.
