Public Access Is Open!

Important Notice:

FolderFort uses two account types: Billing and Storage.

To use FF Connect, sign in to your Billing account (click Unified Login button below) and connect your Storage account. Once connected, FF Connect access can be enabled for that Storage account.

This works with all Storage account types, including Lifetime and Subscription accounts.

You must complete this step in order to gain access to FF Connect.

Access & Limits

What You Need to Know

  • Username: your FolderFort account email
  • Password: your FolderFort API token
  • Region: use the region assigned to your account
  • Parallel transfers/connections: set to 1-2 (required)
  • Max concurrent sessions: 2 per user
  • SFTP auth attempts: 3 tries before reconnect

Plan Speeds

  • FF Pro: up to ~20 MB/s
  • Standard/Public plan: ~5 MB/s (for public rollout)

Metadata/listing activity is rate-limited across plans. Keep folder browsing and checker activity low to avoid 429 errors.

  7. Set timeout to 60s+ (or disable if supported).

WinSCP / Cyberduck / CLI

  • Credentials: email + API token
  • Connections/transfers: set to 1-2
sftp -P 3031 you@example.com@connect.na.folderfort.com

WebDAV Setup (HTTPS)

Use your assigned region URL in this format: https://connect.<region>.folderfort.com/

macOS Finder

  1. Go -> Connect to Server.
  2. Enter your assigned HTTPS URL.
  3. Sign in with email + API token.

Windows

  1. Map Network Drive or Add Network Location.
  2. Enter your assigned HTTPS URL.
  3. Authenticate with email + API token.

Cyberduck

  1. Open Connection.
  2. Protocol: WebDAV (HTTPS).
  3. Use your assigned HTTPS URL and credentials.

rclone Setup

WebDAV Remote (HTTPS)

  1. rclone config -> New remote -> webdav.
  2. URL: your assigned https://connect.<region>.folderfort.com/.
  3. Vendor: other.
  4. User: email, Pass: API token.

Use: --tpslimit 2 --checkers 1 --transfers 1

rclone copy ./local ff-webdav:/target/path --tpslimit 2 --checkers 1 --transfers 1

SFTP Remote

  1. rclone config -> New remote -> sftp.
  2. Host/Port: your assigned SFTP endpoint.
  3. User: email, Pass: API token.

Use: --transfers 1 --checkers 1 --sftp-concurrency 1

rclone sync ./local ff-sftp:/target/path --transfers 1 --checkers 1 --sftp-concurrency 1

Troubleshooting

  • 429/rate-limit: reduce operations and retry.
  • Slow listings: browse smaller folders and reduce scans/indexing.
  • Auth failures: verify assigned region, email, and API token.
  • SFTP host key warning: remove stale known_hosts entry and reconnect.
  • WebDAV 401: expected if credentials are missing or invalid.
  • Still failing: retry with Cyberduck or rclone to isolate client-specific issues.

Security Notes

  • Treat API tokens like passwords.
  • Rotate tokens immediately if exposed.
  • Use trusted devices/networks for mounted workflows.
