Thanks for asking question! Just to confirm If you have Validated the connection? To elaborate on this in Visual studio while doing FTP deployment when Picking a publish target, select IIS, FTP and click on create profile. A new window will pop up for configuring profile.

Select publish method FTP and for information’s like Server, Site path, User name, Password, Destination URL ->
Go to Azure Portal > your app > Click on Overview > Copy FTP or FTP/S Host name for Server and URL for Destination URL.

For site path, user name and password click on deployment center and Copy FTPS endpoint only site/wwwroot and paste in site path. For User name and password its recommended to use App credentials because its unique to each app.

Once filled all information in the custom profile click validate connection. click next and save and then publish the custom profile.

You may refer to doc for more details on this:

Thanks for reply! Could you please double check on if the correct FTP endpoint is filled from the Portal -> Overview blade and having proper permissions on the web app (RBAC). You may also try with another FTP client or other network i.e. mobile network or others. Use FTPS in this case for security. Also ensure does not have anti-virus or network level restrictions blocking the communication between Azure and the FTP client.

Thanks for clarifying this. As per your previous screenshot you have already enabled FTP state to All allowed.

It would be helpful if you could try using these credentials on other machine and see if your able to access, this will help to find out any firewall/port blocking issues at your VM level/Client Network . Also, try installing FileZilla in your local (i.e. out of VM) and try to connect and see if it works. If the firewall isn't properly configured, it won't allow FileZilla to connect fully at the address and port number that the user is attempting to connect to. These errors can also occur due to the firewall on the VM you are using, restricting or blocking outgoing traffic.

You need to allow FTP inbound port to connect.
