Temporary SFTP Server for Testing
Create a disposable SFTP test server for FileZilla, WinSCP, Cyberduck, command-line sftp, and CI uploads. It expires after 30 minutes.
Limits30 minutes · 300 MB · one server per IP · password login only
Allowed useTemporary testing only. Do not upload illegal, malicious, copyrighted, or sensitive files.
Use this SFTP server only for disposable tests
This service provides a short-lived, password-authenticated SFTP endpoint for checking clients, upload paths, commands, or CI—not as a managed file service.
- Use synthetic files and a non-production account configuration.
- Do not paste the generated password or connection command into public logs or documentation.
- Confirm one upload or download, disconnect, then destroy the instance.
The SFTP endpoint has a configured 30-minute lifetime with scheduled cleanup. Authentication does not make it a private long-term environment; minimize data and remove it when done.
How to Use Temporary FTP, SFTP, Redis, MySQL, and WebDAV Test Services SafelyTemporary SFTP Server for FileZilla and CI Testing
Create a disposable SFTP server with random credentials for FileZilla tests, CI/CD checks, and temporary SSH file transfer workflows.
Common Use Cases
- Testing SFTP clients such as FileZilla, Cyberduck, WinSCP, or command-line sftp
- Running temporary CI/CD upload tests against an SFTP endpoint
- Checking application integrations that need a short-lived SFTP server
How Data Is Handled
Temporary SFTP files are stored only inside the disposable upload area and are deleted when the instance expires or is destroyed. Do not upload sensitive, production, illegal, malicious, or copyrighted files.
FAQ
How long does the SFTP server last?
Each temporary SFTP server expires automatically after 30 minutes.
Can I upload files with FileZilla?
Yes. Use the returned host, port, username, and password, then upload into the upload directory.
Is this the same as FTP?
No. SFTP runs over SSH and uses one mapped port, while FTP uses separate control and passive data ports.
Can I use it for production data?
No. It is for temporary client, CI, and integration testing only.
