SFTP is available on all hosting plans which have SSH access included, that is, Premium and above. Just follow these steps:
Step 1 - Preparations
First, make sure that:
You have enabled SSH access.
You have installed the client version of FileZilla on your device
Step 2 - Connecting
You can easily connect to SFTP by following one of the options below:
Option 1 - Direct Access
Open FileZilla and fill in the Quickonnect section with the configuration you got from the SSH Access section:
Host: FTP IP from SSH Access section
User: FTP/SSH Username
Port: 65002
Click on Quickconnect - and you will be connected to FTP server 😊
If you encounter an Unknown host key message, check Always trust this host and click OK:
Option 2 - Site Manager
Unlike Direct access, with Site Manager, you are able to save your previous connection details, as well as change the encryption type.
Open Site Manager in FileZilla:
Click New Site:
Select SFTP connection:
Set the configuration you got from SSH Access or Remote Access section:
Protocol: SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol
Host: FTP IP from the FTP Accounts section (for example, 185.185.185.185)
Port: 65002
Logon type: Normal
User: FTP/SSH Username
Click on Connect - and you will be connected to the server 😊
NOTE
The SFTP/SSH password is the same as the FTP password of your main domain. If you are not sure about the exact value, you can set a new password for both FTP and SSH or create an SSH-only password
