Move managed files with FTP
Connect compatible file-transfer clients to storage controlled by the application server.

File and feed protocols
Expose managed content through protocols that file clients, feed readers, scripts, and publishing tools already understand.
Beyond a custom API
Daptin can serve files over FTP and FTPS, provide core WebDAV-style file routes, and turn record collections into standard feeds. Each protocol stays connected to the storage and access model already configured in the server.
Connect compatible file-transfer clients to storage controlled by the application server.
Use TLS for compatible FTP clients where the deployment requires encrypted transport.
Use basic file operations from tools that speak the WebDAV family of HTTP methods.
Offer RSS, Atom, and JSON Feed for readers, syndication, and lightweight integrations.
Practical fits
Let an authorized operator publish or retrieve site files with an established FTP client.
Offer FTPS when legacy-compatible transfer is required but plaintext transport is not acceptable.
Expose selected record collections to feed readers and downstream publishing tools without a custom client.
Use the supported WebDAV-style operations for straightforward file access from compatible software.
Honest compatibility
FTP access is tied to configured sites and application authorization. Prefer FTPS across untrusted networks, expose only the required services, and test client behavior against the latest release before production use.
Daptin implements core WebDAV-style file routes; it does not claim the full CalDAV or CardDAV standards. Feeds are read-oriented publication formats, not a replacement for the authenticated data API.
