Let us specify the root for a new SFTP account
This is such a basic feature that exists on any cPanel hosting plan. Simply allow us to set the root folder for a new SFTP accounts for an application.
I have software that automatically uploads to the SFTP but the upload fails because your default root (applcations/(appname) is not writable. Simply add a field to let us specify where the root for he new SFTP we just created will be (i.e. applications/(appname)/public_html/newfolder
I cannot stress enough how useful this will be for us developers and will make the CloudWays experience more robust and scalable.

YES. I checked with support. Unfortunately cloudways demanding advanced support subscription just for restricting ftp users to a specific folder.
I am wondering, actually, this is a standard feature with cpanel or plesk and child's play to create one in minutes.
When the service is offered as a managed server, this option is a must. Realy wondering why this is not achieved yet and really it is a bottle neck while prividing CMS services to our clients by having our hosting accounts with CLOUDWAYS.
Thanks and regardds,

I really just assumed that this was possible with Cloudways - I didn´t even check, because thats how basic I think this feature is. All the hosts I used before (even the really cheap ones) supported this.
I have an external party uploading xml files. I need to be able to access those files within the context of the application without them beeing able to modify all website files.
A really complicated "workaround" would be to create a second application on the same server and use a CRON job to somehow copy the files from one application to the other :/
Thats ridiculous... -

I've been waiting for CW to add this features for a while. I run into this issue all the time when running crons on the server and the root isn't writable.

I see that the Cloudways team has thought of almost everything, this is an important option that is needed to be able to give permissions to non-technical and external teams to certain folders without risk
