I tried host: sftp://IP Username: ubuntu user Password: ubuntu password
What am I missing here?

Hi there,
Rather than setting up your own FTP server and FTPS, I could suggest using SFTP with FileZilla and using your SSH credentials.
You can do that by following the steps from the documentation here:

Hope that this helps!
Best,
