This is because you are probably using an SSH key to log in from your terminal. In the tutorial, it is highlited that you are supposed to add a key file to either filezilla or cyberduck. Please repeat the steps under the title “SFTP via SSH2 Key-based Authentication” within the tutorial you used. The first image under that section explains it all. After you are done you will not need a password
