# Which cloud services and servers can I connect to Storage Studio?

You can add **Google Drive**, **Dropbox**, **Bucket Storage** (Amazon S3 and other S3-compatible services), **FTP**, **SFTP**, and **Local folder** accounts. Google Photos can't be added right now because of Google's 2025 rule change, and OneDrive and Box aren't in the Add Account list right now.

### What each type is for

- **Google Drive** and **Dropbox** — sign in through your browser.
- **Bucket Storage** — Amazon S3 or any S3-compatible service, using an access key, secret, region and bucket.
- **FTP** and **SFTP** — your own file server. SFTP is the safe choice; FTP isn't encrypted.
- **Local folder** — gives a folder on this Mac (or a network share you've mounted in Finder) a nickname so it can be used like an account.
