Upload and manage files

The file manager

Open Files in the left menu. The top bar lets you create a New file or folder, Upload files from your computer, and pull a file from a web address.

Right-click a file or folder, or use the … button on its row, for these actions: Rename, Move, Permissions, Archive, and Delete. Files also offer Copy and Download, and archives offer Unarchive.

Good to know:

• Stop your server before deleting or moving important files such as a world.
• Uploads through the browser are limited in size. By default the limit is 100 MB per upload, so use SFTP for anything larger.
• The built-in editor cannot open very large files. By default the limit is a few megabytes. Download the file or use SFTP instead.
• Archive bundles files into one compressed file, which is handy for downloading a whole folder. Unarchive extracts one.

SFTP for large transfers

Use an SFTP program such as FileZilla or WinSCP for large folders like a full world or a modpack.

1. Open Settings in the left menu and go to the SFTP Access tab.
2. Copy the address, port, and username shown there into your SFTP program. The port is usually 2022, and the username has the form youraccount.serverid.
3. Use your panel account password to connect.

You can also sign in with an SSH key instead of a password. See Account security.

If you invited other people to your server, they need the file and SFTP permissions to use SFTP. See Users and permissions.

Upload a world

Stop your server, upload your world folder next to the existing world folder, then follow Regenerate your world to point level-name at the new folder name.
