# Can I transfer files to an FTP or SFTP server?

Yes. Add the server under **More → Connect Accounts…** as an FTP or SFTP account with its address and your sign-in details. It then appears in the cloud picker in **New Transfer**, as a source or destination, and in scheduled transfers.

Transfers to or from a server resume and retry automatically, so a brief network drop doesn't lose progress on a large upload.
