I understand you want to use a private key with a password for SFTP authentication in MATLAB 2021, you can use the following steps to do the same:
- Create a ‘connection’ object to the SFTP server.
- Set the ‘PrivateKeyFile’ and ‘PrivateKeyPassword’ properties of the connection object.
- Create a ‘sftp’ object using the ‘connection’ object.
The ‘connection’ object can be used to manage the SSH connection to the SFTP server. The ‘connection’ object can also be used to specify the private key file and password.
