Introducing Progress Automate MFT

Azure Data Lake Storage Support

As organizations invest in analytics, reporting and AI initiatives, Azure Data Lake Storage has become a critical destination for structured and unstructured data. Progress Automate MFT enables teams to directly integrate file workflows with Azure Data Lake Storage, reducing the need for custom scripts or intermediary tools.

This capability allows IT teams to automate recurring file ingestion into data lakes while maintaining centralized visibility, scheduling and governance. Instead of relying on manual uploads or disconnected processes, teams know that data arrives consistently, securely and on time.

What’s new:

S3-Compatible Endpoint Support

Not all object storage lives in AWS. Many organizations rely on S3-compatible storage for private cloud, sovereign cloud or cost optimization strategies. Automate MFT supports S3-compatible endpoints, allowing teams to bring these environments into centralized file transfer automation.

This removes the need for one-off integrations and enables consistent workflow design across multiple storage platforms. Teams can standardize how files are moved, processed and monitored regardless of where the storage resides.

IMAP Mailbox Retrieval

Many important business files still arrive as email attachments in shared mailboxes. Automate MFT can retrieve invoices, claims files, bank statements, supplier reports, partner documents, operational spreadsheets and more from an incoming mailbox using IMAP.

S3 OIDC Authentication with RBAC

Security teams are increasingly moving toward identity-based access models. With support for S3 OIDC authentication, Automate MFT enables organizations to use role-based access instead of static credentials when connecting to AWS S3.

This approach improves security posture while simplifying credential management. It allows file transfer workflows to align with modern cloud identity practices, reducing risk and improving compliance.

Audit Log Filtering and Reusable Criteria

Audit logs are essential for compliance and troubleshooting but large volumes of data can make them difficult to navigate. Automate MFT includes enhanced filtering capabilities that allow teams to quickly narrow audit logs based on relevant criteria.

In addition, reusable filter criteria help teams streamline recurring audit tasks. Instead of rebuilding queries each time, administrators can quickly access the exact views they need.

REST API Support for Reports

File transfer activity is often critical to operations but visibility is frequently limited to the platform itself. With REST API support for Task Run, File Activity and Audit Log reports, Automate MFT enables teams to integrate reporting data into external systems.

This allows organizations to extend visibility into dashboards, monitoring tools and compliance systems, so that file transfer activity becomes part of broader operational intelligence.

Usability Improvements

As file transfer automation scales, teams need ways to reduce repetitive setup, recover from mistakes, document workflow logic and extend automation without returning to unmanaged scripts. New features include:

Recycle bin for tasks and library assets, helping admins protect critical workflows from accidental deletion
In-line task comments help administrators explain workflow context, handoff notes, partner requirements or operational instructions inside the automation itself
Key and certificate generation help administrators reduce friction and standardize security asset creation inside the platform (now workarounds or separate tools needed).
