If you have a Starter or Pro plan, you can use the fmcloud.fm Admin Console, which will give you more options.

The documentation can be found here: https://www.fmcloud.fm/fmcloud-fm-admin-console/


But you can still use the native Admin console

To download a database file from the FileMaker Server Admin Console:

  • open the admin console at https://<your-subdomain>.fmcloud.fm/admin-console
  • authenticate using your FileMaker Server login/password
  • go to Databases
  • close the file using the contextual menu
  • once the file is closed, select Download from the same menu
  • since FileMaker Server 19, the download does not start immediately, you need to go to the notification menu on the upper right corner.
