Answer 1

The second argument to SFTPClient.get is a path to a local file. While you seem to pass a path to a directory.

Also, you should not use os.path.join on SFTP paths. os.path.join is for local paths. SFTP always uses forward slashes, while os.path.join uses local OS-specific separators (back slashes on Windows).

sftp.get(path + '/' + file, os.path.join('E:\InsightImport\CSV_EXTRACT', file))
