Upload custom worlds, mods, plugins, and configuration files to your server through the web file manager or over SFTP for larger transfers.

Using the file manager

1

Open the file manager

From the Dashboard, open your server and go to the Files tab.
2

Navigate to the destination

Browse to the folder where the file belongs, for example plugins/, mods/, or the world directory.
3

Upload the file

Click Upload and select files from your computer, or drag and drop them into the browser window.
4

Restart the server

Most changes require a restart. Stop and start the server from the console for the new files to load.
The web uploader is best for files under a few hundred megabytes. Use SFTP for larger uploads such as full worlds or modpacks.

Using SFTP

For bulk transfers, connect with an SFTP client such as FileZilla or WinSCP.
1

Get your SFTP details

Open the Settings or SFTP tab on your server to find the host, port, username, and password.
2

Connect from your client

Enter the details in your SFTP client and connect. You will see your server’s file tree.
3

Transfer files

Drag files from your computer into the destination folder on the server.
Do not delete system files or the server may fail to start. If in doubt, back up first from the file manager.
