How to Create FTP Sessions in Plesk?

To connect via FTP to your account you will need an FTP client. There are several programs of this type and you can use any to connect. A popular FTP client is Filezilla.

With your FTP client open, the details to connect are:

  • Host: midominio.com o 69.61.28.146
  • User: Plesk user
  • Password: Plesk password
  • Port: 21
Example connection in FileZilla

Example connection in FileZilla

You will find the FTP connection details in your control panel, option Connection Information.

Below you will see the option FTP Access, from where you can create FTP Sessions for different users.

When entering Connection Information you will see a screen with the FTP connection details.

FTP Sessions

In cases where you do not want to use your control panel access credentials to connect via FTP, or you want to give others access to specific directories, you can create FTP Sessions to provide individualized access.

In an earlier image we showed you where to find the FTP Access option. Go to that option to create FTP Sessions.

The first screen you will see shows the FTP sessions created. To create a new session press the Add an FTP Account button.

The form to create the FTP session is quite simple; it will ask you for a username, a password and a directory to give this new user access to. Then, you must save the session with the Accept button.
