OK!

After continuing with your solution, why don't you use ssh to list the file and use scp to copy it to the localhost?

Code:
# To list
echo "ls -l /remote/file/path/remote_file_name.csv*.gz" | ssh -C -T -l <User>

# To get the file
scp <User>@<Host>:<FileFromAbove> <LocalPath>

Regards!

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       >0	An error occurred.
