I’m wondering if there is an app to upload files (from image tokens, text tokens) to a FTP or SMB share?  
It would allow an archiving or camera snapshots using flows - time or event triggered.  
Any ideas?

If not, a simple SMB example would be nice. Thanks.

Just thinking…  
I know the [Archive Insights app](https://homey.app/a/com.gruijter.insights2csv/) can export data to FTP or SMB shares.  
Maybe Robin can add a flowcard for exporting an specific (image) token?

Ok, then I will take a look at the app. But it would be better to make a specific app for such things (like SQL client app). I will check what’s easier.

A SMB logic card in the core would be great like the http cards 🙂

Yup, a few months later, the [FTP client app](https://homey.app/a/nl.qluster-it.FtpClient/) has just landed at the app store. (It needs Micro Web server to function).
