You can create a control file to connect and run the SFTP commands.

Something like below:-

Code:
cat > sftp_control.cntrl
cd <destination path>
get <file name>

Then run it by passing it to SFTP:-

Code:
sftp -b sftp_control.cntrl user@host

You can use your script to create the commands in the control file.
