FTP options other than EasyFTP

I need to occasionally move a file from Sharepoint via FTP to anohter server as part of a Zap, <50 times a month. Currently we do this via python locally, but I’d like to move the process to Zapier. The only option I see within Zapier is EasyFTP, which is $10/month. I'm surprised this isn't a native app within Zapier itself. Am I missing something or is EasyFTP the only option?

Perhaps explore using the WordPress API: https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/

You can use the WordPress API via this Zap action: WordPress - API Request

Hi ​@Cignal 

Zapier does not have a native FTP Zap app.

Zap apps can be searched here: https://zapier.com/apps

Options include using an available Zap app that supports FTP, workarounds using code/webhooks, or possibly a different platform.

I need to place the file in a specific directory on a Wordpress server, and overwrite an existing file. The File is not part of the media library.
