ip http webdav enable
— enable the service;ip http webdav security-level (public | private)
— enable or disable access from the Internet;ip http webdav permissive

The SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is a network protocol that provides file access, file transfer, and file management functionalities over a secure connection.
ip ssh sftp enable
— enable the service;ip ssh sftp permissive
— ignore filesystem ACL;ip ssh sftp root {directory}
