I want to get files of website back which I have deployed on azure. Is there any way to download or get that files from azure ?
Yes, you can use FTP for that. Use this search link for details.
Firstly, you could access Azure website files (under /site/wwwroot directory) via FTP using your deployment credentials. You could find (or set) deployment credentials by going to App Deployment>Deployment credentials in Azure portal.
Besides, Kudu Console tool that gives us both command line and file browser access to sites, you could download website files via Kudu Console tool.

Using the Deployment Center link on the App Service page navigation in the azure portal, I was able to find my FTP credentials and easily log in with them. However, there are no files in the wwwroot folder except for hostingstart.html.
However, when I use the Azure Console, all my files appear in the wwwroot folder and the hostingstart.html file is not there.
I'm not sure if it's relevant but we do have continuous integration setup. I just want to be able to see those files and interact with them.
If I browse into the /LogFiles folder I can confirm that the FTP and Azure Command Line show the same files. So I know I am on the right server.
After much searching I learned what is going on. If you have the WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE setting enabled, your site is served out of a zip file.
The FTP server shows the real folder, whereas the kudu console maps that folder to the contents of the zip file.
This announcement explains it in a lot of detail.
Go to kudu and click "Current Docker logs (Download as zip)"
Is it possible to download the files/scripts of a web job already uploaded into an Azure Web App? If so, where is it located?
Go to d:\home\site\wwwroot\app_data\jobs.... in KUDU site after login azure portal, get script file.

I need to copy the files from my app service A to my app service B.
To do this I can simple download the A files over FTP to my computer and upload them to B over FTP.
Is there a way to do this ftp download directly from A to B? I tried azure app service console and kudu power shell but I'm getting the following error:
I Know that I can clone the entire app service but that's not what a I want.
Thanks for the suggestions.
As far as I know, azure kudu don't support ftp tool.
Besides, I don't think there's a way to copy files without downloading and re-uploading, at least I found nothing like this in the List of FTP commands and no client I have seen so far supported something like this.
You need download it firslty and upload it again.
Here is a workaround, you could use some tools to help you copy files.
These tool also will cpoy the files to local(in temp folder) and upload it again.
For example WinSCP FTP client does support the remote copy.
You could just right click the file after login in and select remote copy tag.
If you want to copy files from A to B in kudu, I suggest you could use git tool to help you copy the files(the entire app service).
More details, you could refer to below steps:
1.Generate the git url in your web service A.
(1)You could firstly set your deployment username and password.
(2)Enable local git deploy
(3) Find the web service git url in the overview.
2.In the kudu, locate to the site folder and change add below codes:
Notice: you need delete all the files in the wwwort folder add password behind the user name as below format:
https://{username}:{password}#xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.scm.azurewebsites.net:443/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.git
Code:
git clone {git url} wwwroot
Result:
Not sure what exactly you want to achieve and how this is related to programming, but here is a bunch of info that will help you:

FTP client can be install on app server:
apt-get install ftp
Having never used Azure before I'm attempting to deploy a simple F# Suave app to Azure using FTP. Ultimately I want to deploy via github but I initially thought FTP'ing it would be the easy first step. According to https://suave.io/azure-app-service.html it should be straight forward.
These are the steps I followed
Created a new web app in Azure including a resource group
and app service plan. All on the Free Tier.
Downloaded the publishsettings XML file that Azure created.
Cloned this repo: https://github.com/isaacabraham/fsharp-demonstrator
Used FileZilla to connect via FTP using the creds
from step 2.
Uploaded the files (via FTP) from
fsharp-demonstrator/src/SuaveHost (which includes the necessary web.config file) from the repo cloned at step 3 to
the site\wwwroot on Azure.
Navigated to Azure site url.
Then I receive the error:
The specified CGI application encountered an error and the server terminated the process.
(When I look at the folders on Azure under site\wwwroot I don't see any obj or bin folders. I don't think any msbuild process occurred. That doesn't seem right.)
Anybody got any idea what the problem is?
I suspect the issue is that when you deploy via FTP, then Azure does not automatically run the deploy script specified in the .deployment file.
The build.fsx script uses Kudu service to deploy the built files, so it might be easier to just use Github deployment rather than FTP - this way, Azure will do the deployment for you.
If you want to deploy via FTP, you'll need to build the project locally and upload the output. I'm not sure how to best do this with Isaac's Kudu-based demo though (ultimately, you need web.config that points to your built executable like this)
I have a deployed web application on Azure that I seem to have lost local copied of the source files.
I'm logged onto Azure portal but can't seem to find any of the deployed files.
Anyone give me some pointers in where I should be looking to locate the deployed files.
The easiest thing to do would be to either connect via FTP to download all of your files or create a local Git repository and clone the site.
First thing you will need to do is reset your deployment credentials if you do not know what they are. You can do this by clicking on more commands on the web app info blade and then clicking "reset publish profile"
To connect via FTP use an ftp program such as FileZilla to connect and download.
To clone your files to a local Git repo, setup your web app for continuous deployment using the following button on the web app settings blade.
You can also find detailed instructions here: Continuous deployment using Git in Azure App Service
Both methods will let you acquire all your files that are published to the web app.
It's easy to download your files using the SCM site. Go to:
https://.scm.azurewebsites.net
and then click on CMD on the top bar.
Then you can download all of your site content in a zip. Note that the actual site content will be in the wwwroot folder in the directory "site".
