Delivery of data to Statistics Finland by means of the file transfer web service
The data files to be delivered are transferred electronically to Statistics Finland by means of an easy-to-use file transfer web service. Remember to make an agreement beforehand with Statistics Finland’s contact person regarding the name of the file to be delivered!
Identifiers for the Web Service
Login data (supplier_id and password) for Statistics Finland’s server are sent to the supplier’s contact person by secure email. The identifiers are organisation-specific and they can be used for delivering several data files.
Login
Once you receive the identifiers, log in with them at https://siirto.stat.fi/aineistot. We recommend using the Chrome browser. After logging in, the file transfer web service opens in the browser:
Sending a file
- First, press the “Selaa” (select file) button under the “Upload files” heading.
- Then select the file you want to send.
- Finally, press the button “Upload file”.
- The delivery takes place one file at a time, but you can send several files in one session. Files you have delivered previously can no longer be viewed on the browser. They are also removed from the transfer server immediately after delivery to the recipient.
- The maximum size of a file that can be sent through the web service is 2 GB. If the file is larger, try splitting the file into several smaller files. If this is not possible, please contact: aineistojen.vastaanotto@stat.fi
