# Using FileZilla for SFTP

Regrid most commonly delivers data as a pull process using SFTP (SecureFTP). FileZilla is a common cross-platform file transfer client that supports SFTP, but any transfer software that supports SFTP will work and is generally configured with the same settings as described below.

### Step-by-Step

1. Download and install FileZilla if you haven't already. You can download it from the [official website](https://filezilla-project.org/download.php?show_all=1).
2. Open FileZilla and go to `File` -> `Site Manager`.

      <br />
3. Click on the `New Site` button and enter a name for the site (e.g. "regrid.com").
4. In the `Protocol` dropdown menu on the right, select `SFTP - SSH File Transfer Protocol`.
5. In the `Host` field, enter` sftp.regrid.com`.
6. In the `Port` field, enter `22` (which is the default port for SFTP).
7. In the `Logon Type` dropdown menu, select `Normal`.
8. Enter your username and password for the SFTP server Regrid provided in the `User` and `Password` fields.
9. Click `Connect` to connect to the SFTP server.
10. If everything is set up correctly, you should be able to see the files on the remote server in the right-hand pane of FileZilla. You can navigate through the directories and drag-and-drop files to transfer them between your local machine and the remote server.
