Currency URLs only support the HTTP-HTTPS and FILE protocols. There is an open feature request to extend other protocols to be allowed, but for the now, you can follow up this page.
Solution
You can add the login and password directly in the url instead of using the Username and Password fields.
ftp://user:password@host:port/path/file.csv
Make sure that you can access with the same FTP Url from a browser or via command line, such below:
curl ftp://user:password@host:port/path/file.csv
- Do not use the Username and Password fields.
