You can download your server's world to your PC at any time – for example as an additional backup, for archiving or to transfer it to another server.

  1. Find the active world
    Open the server.properties file in the main folder of your server. The level-name entry shows the folder name of the currently loaded world:

    level-name=my_world
    
  2. Stop the server
    Stop your server via the dashboard.

  3. Connect via SFTP
    Connect to your server via SFTP or use the file browser in the dashboard.

  4. Open the directory
    In the main folder of your server, navigate to the following folder:

    worlds
    
  5. Download the world folder
    Every world is stored here as its own folder. Download the folder of your world completely – including the db subfolder as well as the files level.dat and levelname.txt.

  6. Start the server
    Start your server again.
