Download the desired datapack. This should be a folder or a ZIP file.

Go to the game panel and select the server you want to install the datapack on.
-
On the left side, click on Files.

- Navigate to the **world **folder and then click on datapacks.

- Upload the datapack by dragging it into the datapacks folder.
Sometimes the datapack may have "UNZIP_ME" in the name. If that’s the case, click on the three dots at the end of the filename.Note: Only unzip files that specifically say "UNZIP_ME". Other **.zip **files should work as they are. 
- Click on Unarchive to unzip the file (if necessary).

- After unzipping, delete the original file you uploaded and keep the new folder that was created.

- Restart your server to apply the changes
