Hello @siya ,
Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

By "cerberus web client" are you referring to the Cerberus FTP? This does has a web client. The web client is to make it easer for you, a person, to work with their service. This has a backend of FTP. The web client itself doesn't seem like the right place to plug Azure Data Factory into. Instead, you should use the FTP connector to plug Data Factory directly into their back-end.

Think of the web client as a mail-order catalog and the FTP as a loading dock. Both get you stuff from a warehouse. It is just fewer steps to pull up with a truck.

Upon further reading, it looks like the Cerberus is something you download and setup on your machine. Something you maintain. I see there is both HTTPS as well as FTP, SFTP options. Whichever you choose, you will need information in step 3 of 360000043619-How-to-Setup-a-File-Server-with-Cerberus-FTP-Server. This will go in the Host field of FTP linked service

If you have user accounts on your Cerberus, then the username / password will come from those. If anyone and everyone is allowed to connect, change authentication to "Anonymous".

The SFTP has more complicated and secure options.

Please do let me if you have any queries.

Thanks
Martin
