7.10. FTP access to storage

FTP users are managed in the "Storage" section on the "FTP users" tab:

1. Click "Add user".
2. Fill out the form and click "Add":
   • "Login" — FTP user name. Always starts with an unchangeable prefix with the storage name.
   • "Password" — FTP user password. Can be specified manually or generated. ⚠️ Not saved on hosting.
   • "Access directory" — path to the directory in the storage to which this FTP user should have access. Use this setting if you want to provide access only to a specific directory without access to other directories in the storage.
   • "Read only" — enable if you want the FTP user to only be able to view files and not be able to make changes.

1. In the FTP user row, click 📝.
2. Specify the settings you want to change and click "Save":

In the row with the FTP user, press 🗑 and confirm the operation with the button in the window.

To connect to the storage via FTP using FTP client, use the data or FTP URL from the "FTP access" tab.

• Host (server) — storage address from the "Host" column.
• Login — FTP user login from the "Login" column.
• Password — FTP user password (not stored on hosting).
• Port — 21.

FTP URL — link in the format ftp://login@host:port/, which contains all connection data except the password.

When you click on the link, it is copied to the clipboard. The copied link can be used for a quick connection using a FTP client — usually the client recognizes the link and automatically places the data from it into the required fields, after which you only need to enter your password. This feature is available in FileZilla and WinSCP.
