Prerequisites

In order to complete this tutorial, you should have access to the following:

• FileZilla Pro is downloaded and installed on your local machine. You can purchase FileZilla Pro for Windows or macOS from filezillapro.com.
• A DigitalOcean Space and API key is created by following How To Create a DigitalOcean Space and API Key. Be sure to note the following credentials for your Space:
  • Access Key
  • Secret Key
  • Space URL
  • Bucket Name

With these prerequisites in place, we can begin setting up FileZilla Pro to work with DigitalOcean Spaces.

Step 1 — Configuring Spaces Endpoints

To connect to your DigitalOcean Spaces repository with FileZilla Pro, you must configure the FileZilla providers list with DigitalOcean endpoints. Open FileZilla Pro and follow these steps:

• Choose Edit from the menu at the top of the screen, and select Settings. You will see a dialog box, where you should see a Transfers heading. Select S3: Providers under that heading.
• In the S3: Providers page, you will see a box for Providers, with an, Add Button below it. Click this button to add DigitalOcean to the list of providers:

• Below the Providers box, you will see a Regions box and another Add button. Click on it and add the following regions and endpoints:
• Name: sgp1
• Description: Singapore 1
• EndPoints: sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com

You can add other regions later. The completed Regions list will look like this:

• Below the Regions box, you will see a Catch All box. Enter .digitaloceanspaces.com in this box. Be sure to include the leading dot before the text.
• In the Format box enter: {region}.digitaloceanspaces.com Your Settings page should now look like this:

• Press the OK button located on the left-hand side of the screen to finish.

From here, we’ll connect our Spaces buckets to FileZilla.

Step 2 — Adding a DigitalOcean Spaces Repository

Now we can add our Spaces bucket information — including our repository URL and Access and Secret Keys — to FileZilla in order to connect to each of our Spaces.

• Select File from the top menu, and choose Site Manager.
• In the Site Manager dialog box, click the New Site button, located on the bottom left-hand side of the screen.
• Enter the name of the new site. It may make sense to call this DigitalOcean.
• In the Host text box, located to the right of the site list, enter your Space URL. This could look something like the following: your_space_name.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com, with your_space_name being your Space Bucket Name, and sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com being your endpoint.
• Using the Protocol dropdown menu located below the Host box, select S3 - Amazon Simple Storage Service.
• In the Logon Type box, select Normal from the dropdown menu.
• In the Access Key ID box, enter your DigitalOcean Key.
• In the Secret Access Key box, enter your DigitalOcean Secret.

With these information fields complete, your Site Manager page should now look like this:

When you have finished and ensured that everything appears to be correctly filled in, press the OK button at the bottom of the screen to complete the setup.

Step 3 — Connecting to Your Spaces Repository

With the setup complete, you can now connect to DigitalOcean Spaces with FileZilla Pro.

• Navigate to the File header again, and select Site Manager. Within the Sites dialog box, select your DigitalOcean Spaces site.
• Press Connect.

You have now successfully integrated DigitalOcean Spaces with FileZilla Pro and can now transfer files to your Spaces bucket.
