    any idea how I can use a remote file share as a local file path?

    $Credential = get-credential

    $FilePath = 'P:\'
    $sftppath = '/home/user'
    $remoteIP = '10.50.233.13'

    $session = New-SFTPSession -ComputerName $remoteIP -Credential $Credential

    # Upload the file to the SFTP path
    Set-SFTPFile -SessionId ($Session).SessionId -LocalFile $FilePath -RemotePath $sftppath

    P was a drive I create via

    New-PSDrive -Name "P" -PSProvider "filesystem" -Root "\\server\share"

    but got error

    Set-SFTPFile : File to upload \\server\share was not found.
    At line:21 char:1
    + Set-SFTPFile -SessionId ($ThisSession).SessionId -LocalFile $FilePath ...
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Just use the SMB client to copy the file. https://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/SMB-HOWTO-8.html 

    Or configure FTP on the Windows server and run the FTP client on the Linux machine.

    Or put Putty on the Windows machine and connect to SFTP on the Linux machine. https://www.maketecheasier.com/use-sftp-transfer-files-linux-servers/

    If your Windows machine is Server 2019 or win10 you can install OpenSSH. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/openssh/openssh_install_firstuse

    Linux has shares (SMB shares).  Just copy the file from the windows share to the Linux share.

    Ask you Linux admins for help.  They will tell you what is available.

    Just save it to a dvd and copy it to the machines as needed.

    Download it to the machine that you are currently using. Run mstsc and configure it to map your C drive when you RDP to the machine with no internet access. Then follow the install instructions.

    Please ask the author of you module how to use the module.  You can also try learning how to access shared files in Windows.

    "FilePath" is a file name and not a folder.

    This is not a scripting question but rather a "how do I copy file between hosts with different operating systems" question.

    Two common ways to do this are to use SMB and SSH file transfer mechanisms, as already noted.

    Other than to give that answer, this question is not within this forum's scope.
