All data is managed in accordance with the Australian synchrotron data policy, which makes best efforts to store data on different beamlines for certain periods of time.

You can access PD data files remotely via Secure FTP (SFTP). To download the data, we recommend using a graphical client like FileZilla or WinSCP. The following connection details need to be provided to the SFTP client of your choice. You can find additional information in our Data Download Guide.

  1. Host: sftp://sftp.synchrotron.org.au 

  2. Username is the same email address you use to log into the User Portal

  3. Password

If you are listed on the Experiment Authorisation Form, you have access to the data by default. If not, please feel free to ask your beamline scientist to authorise you for data access.

If you encounter any problems with this service, please send an email to your beamline scientist, including your User Portal email address and the Experiment Proposal Number (EPN), which you are trying to download. General feedback on this service is also appreciated.
