-The Provider plugins help you connect to your accounts with remote file providers such as [Dropbox](https://dropbox.com), [Google Drive](https://drive.google.com), [Instagram](https://instagram.com) and remote urls (import a file by pasting a direct link to it). Because this requires server to server communication, they work tightly with [uppy-server](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy-server) to manage the server to server authorization for your account. Almost all of the communication (file download/upload) is done on the server-to-server end, so this saves you the stress and bills of data consumption on the client.

-Usage of the Provider plugins is not that different from any other *acquirer* plugin, except that it takes an extra option `serverUrl`, which specifies the url to your running `uppy-server`. This allows Uppy to know what server to connect to when server related operations are required by the provider plugin. Here's a quick example.
