Put -r is not working in SFTP

Hi Folks,

I am trying to copy a directory along with sub-directories to SFTP server.

I have connected to SFTP and tried to run the below command:

Code:
sftp> get -r abc/*

It is throwing the error Invalid flag -r

Can you please let me know the ways to copy a directory from Local to SFTP
