Not sure whether this is a bug report, or a feature request or a request for clarification - is it possible to do an apoc.load call, using FTP/SFTP as a url? If so, how would you pass in the username and password?

I'm not really fluent in Java to delve into the code myself, but I'd imagine the underlying mechanics would involve opening the stream and reading it, just like any other file. Perhaps username and password could be passed in with the options object, just like the separator?

If it is currently possible, can someone point me in the right direction of how? If not, can I please officially request support for this? It'd save like 3 steps on a project I'm currently working on.
