FTPS is a secure file transfer protocol available in most FTP clients, including FileZilla and Cyberduck. Your Cloud environment does not accept plain FTP connections, but it will accept FTPS connections.
If you’d like to provide more control over which files a user can access, you can use an FTP Secure account. Please ensure that you’ve configured your FTP client to connect via SSL/TLS with explicit encryption. For security purposes, all usernames must include the site’s domain as the mail server. However, this email address does not need to exist to be set as a username.
Credentials for FTPS access are available and are found within each service plan’s dashboard. This article will walk you through the steps to find your FTPS login information and modify it for your development needs.
Note: |
It is not advised to share passwords. Please generate a new password each time you need to log into FTPS to protect your site from compromise. |
