FTP access issue

I've created a Docker Container Web App and need to get access to the file system to so I can upload some config files that our app needs to run. I went to Deployment Credentials and set up the credentials successfully, the FTP/deployment username field in the overview now has the username set. However whenever I try to connect my I get the following errors back in the console:

Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Response: 220 Microsoft FTP Service
Command: USER <my_username>
Response: 331 Password required
Command: PASS *********
Response: 530 User cannot log in.
Error: Critical error: Could not connect to server

Says password required when I'm indeed providing it with a password.

Side note I find it frustrating that the username and password requirements aren't spelled out in the portal and that it actually allows you to save invalid usernames/passwords and tells you that the submission was successful. I had to find the username and password requirements documented somewhere else to even know I was doing it wrong.
