FTP (File Transfer Protocol) was the standard {{glossary("protocol")}} for many years for transferring files from one {{glossary("host")}} to another over the Internet. Increasingly, though, teams and hosting accounts don't allow FTP and instead rely on a version control system like Git. You will still find it used on older hosting accounts, but it is safe to say that FTP is no longer considered best practice.

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is an insecure {{glossary("protocol")}} for transferring files from one {{glossary("host")}} to another over the Internet.

+ +

For many years it was the defacto standard way of transferring files, but as it is inherently insecure, it is no longer supported by many hosting accounts. Instead you should use SFTP (a secure, encrypted version of FTP) or another secure method for transferring files like Rsync over SSH.

The first part of the URL is the scheme, which indicates the protocol that the browser must use to request the resouce (a protocol is a set method for exchanging or transferring data around a computer network). Usually for websites the protocol is HTTPS or HTTP (its unsecured version). Addressing web pages requires one of these two, but browsers also know how to handle other schemes such as mailto: (to open a mail client) or ftp: to handle file transfer, so don't be surprised if you see such protocols.

FTP support disabled

- -

For security reasons, {{Glossary("FTP")}} is disabled from Firefox 88 in all releases ({{bug(1691890)}}), with the intention of removing the feature in Firefox 90 (previously FTP was only disabled in nightly builds). The network.ftp.enabled preference must be enabled (set to true) to allow FTP to be used.
