It is different than the master SFTP
I'd even add it to the user account management(upload keys/user) for teams and our Agency would have the easiest on boarding of our 80+ apps for new devs.

I can see users wanting both. Definitely in favor of each app having its own and a master SFTP as well. Would suite everyone.

Actually, i have to paste my SSH key in every single application of my server.

It would be great if we could specify one SSH key pair as "master" and that key pair is inserted every time an applications is created/cloned.

This is different from http://feedback.cloudways.com/forums/203824-service-improvement/suggestions/6975849-master-sftp-ssh-user-for-my-servers-access-to-all

I think both should be done :

- Master SFTP account and
- each application SFTP user having only strict access to the specific application files

Easy to implement.

We have conflicting requests in this regard. We have people asking for the opposite, i.e. each application SFTP user having only strict access to the specific application files (currently one application user can read files in another application folder).

The reason for this, to be able to give one application credential to one external developer without giving any access to other applications in the server.

Most probably this is the approach that we are going to take by now. Leaving this open, as if there is demand for it, we could consider to create a super-sftp user at server level with access to all applications or similar.
