### Using SCP to transfer files
If you need to transfer files to and from your Oracle VPS, you can use SCP.
1. Open a terminal on your local machine.
2. Run the following command to transfer a file from your local machine to your Oracle VPS, replacing `your_ip` with the public IP address of your instance and `file.txt` with the file you want to transfer.
```bash
scp file.txt ubuntu@your_ip:/path/to/destination
```
3. Run the following command to transfer a file from your Oracle VPS to your local machine, replacing `your_ip` with the public IP address of your instance and `/path/to/file.txt` with the path to the file you want to transfer.
```bash
scp ubuntu@your_ip:/path/to/file.txt /path/to/destination
```
:::tip
Your user folder - the folder you are in when you first connect to your Oracle VPS - is located at `/home/ubuntu`. You can use the `~` symbol to represent your user folder, so `/home/ubuntu` is the same as `~`.
e.g., `scp file.txt ubuntu@your_ip:~/file.txt` will transfer `file.txt` to your user folder on your Oracle VPS.
