How do I access the SFTP directory for my staging area?

The credentials you use for SFTP access will be the same settings explained on this page: How do I access my SFTP directory.
The only difference is: For the ‘username’ you will add “-staging” to the username. So if your user name is ‘whatever,’ the username will be: “whatever-staging”
Please note: You can always change your credentials or add a new SFTP account for staging by going to the WP Engine Customer Portal. Then select manage wordpress under the installation you wish to access for your SFTP account. Then select SFTP. When you go to edit or add a new SFTP user, make sure the ENV (stands for ‘enviornment’ ) is set to Staging.
