Cloud accounts · FTP and SFTP servers
What is the base path on an FTP or SFTP account?
Short answer: An optional starting folder on the server. Blank means the server's default folder; set it, for example /backups/macbook, and this account's transfers stay inside that folder.
It's an optional starting folder on the server. Leave it blank and Storage Studio starts at the server's default landing folder. Set it — for example /backups/macbook — and transfers for this account are kept inside that folder.
It's a handy way to keep Storage Studio's work in one place on a shared server. To work in several areas, add a separate account for each base path with its own nickname.
