PeopleTools only
supports URLs with following syntax:
PROTOCOL://HOSTNAME
PROTOCOL://USER:PASSWORD@HOSTNAME
PROTOCOL://USER:PASSWORD@HOSTNAME:PORT
Therefore if for example only sftp://hostname:portname is provided, the URL syntax validation thinks you are providing the User and Password without any Hostname, and gives an Invalid Parameter error.
Create instead a URL with a dummy (fake) username and password to workaround the above. The username provided and password will not actually be used, since the URL Properties would be used instead.
For example:
URL value: sftp://dummyuser:dummypassword@mysftpserver.com:1111
PROTOCOL://HOSTNAME
PROTOCOL://USER:PASSWORD@HOSTNAME
PROTOCOL://USER:PASSWORD@HOSTNAME:PORT
Therefore if for example only sftp://hostname:portname is provided, the URL syntax validation thinks you are providing the User and Password without any Hostname, and gives an Invalid Parameter error.

Above applies only from Peopletools Version 8.51 and later
