How to upload your Minecraft world

How to move a world to your server from the panel or, if it exceeds 1 GB, over SFTP.

497 views Updated 16 Oct 2026

A singleplayer world or one from another provider can be moved to your server from the panel or over SFTP, depending on its size.

Worlds up to 1 GB

  1. Compress the world folder into a .zip file.
  2. In the panel, go to Files.
  3. Upload the .zip and select Unarchive in the file's menu.
  4. Make sure the folder is named after the level-name value in server.properties (world by default).
  5. Restart the server.

Worlds over 1 GB

The panel's file manager accepts files of up to 1 GB. Larger worlds are uploaded over SFTP:

  1. In the panel, go to Settings. The SFTP credentials box contains the server address and the username. The password is the same one used to sign in to the panel.
  2. Connect with an SFTP client such as FileZilla. The full procedure, with screenshots, is in Uploading files over SFTP with FileZilla.
  3. Stop the server and upload the world folder to the root.
  4. Start the server.
