I am using the following code to connect to our SFTP server.
Up until a few hours ago this was working.
I can connect via the same user/password via the WinSCP client (Full Install), but not via the COM library (WinSCP-6.5.4-Automation.zip).
I receive the following error:
<path>\install.ps1 : Exception calling "Open" with "1" argument(s): "Authentication failed.
Authentication log (see session log for details):
Using username "j****d@*****.com".
Access denied.
Authentication failed."
I have verified my credentials and that this is the only WinSCPnet.dll available to the PowerShell 5.x script.
Is there any known issue, or have they simply blocked the call from the library?
I can post redacted logs if necessary.
Thank you
