Using saved connections / transfer Profiles
Hi,
I am new to WinSCP (and new to administration). Therefore, I lack good skills in batch scripting. Also, we won't be using WinSCP a lot, so my time spent on this topic should be limited.
I got it running, but only if I spell out the password in the batch file. I hoped to define the connection and the transfer profiles in the GUI and call this saved information within the batch file. That way, I could keep track and update later in the GUI and won't have to bother about updating all scripts. Also, I know for sure where the passwords are saved.

However, this is the current working file (file/connection/Mask Data replaced):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe" /ini=nul /log="C:logFolder\batch.log" /command ^ "open sftp://Username:Password@remoteServer/ -hostkey=""ssh-rsa KEY""" ^ "synchronize local -filemask=""MyMask"" ""destinationFolder"" ""sourceFolder""" ^ "exit" pause
TestConnection and Testprofile in the GUI and have the Batch File as
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.exe" /ini=nul /log="C:logFolder\batch.log" /command ^ "open TestConnection ^ "synchronize local -filemask=Testprofile ""destinationFolder"" ""sourceFolder""" ^ "exit" pause
The second script (and variants I tried) fail at loading the connection (seem to be taking
TestConnection as the URL and tries to connect, so fails for sure).
