when you open the connection dialog, click "SFTP" in the bottom right instead of "Connect"

So I’m a bit confused on how this SFTP is supposed to work. Does this allow me to use my browser as a way to transfer my local files to my remote server over ssh? I couldn’t find much information on how to do this? Could you please help? I can login via SFTP with no issues.

yes, that's what SFTP clients do.  you can upload or download files via it.

after you establish the sftp connection, open the 'files' application

that's if you use "SFTP Mount" which only works on CrOS.  if you use "SFTP", it opens a command line tool that works on all platforms.

@vapier is there a way to get SFTP working on Mac OS arm64? Something like how the "--ssh-client-version=wasm" relay option works for SSH?

Thanks

SFTP support hasn't been implemented for WASM yet.  star https://crbug.com/1312173 for updates.

we have to get port forwarding working first, and then will prob look at sftp after that.
