Allow a collaborator to work in the folder they need without exposing the whole hosting account.
What to do
- Open Account Manager > FTP Management in DirectAdmin.
- Choose Create FTP Account and enter the username.
- Generate a strong password and choose the permitted directory or custom path.
- Confirm the path belongs to the correct site and save.
- Test the account access and remove it when the work ends.
Check the result
Use the exact username the panel displays; it may include the domain.
If you need a hand
If the required directory cannot be selected, ask support rather than sharing your main account login.
Open a support request. Include the affected domain and what you tried. Leave out passwords, full payment details, and private keys.
