remote upload support

Hi,

does your server support remote upload? That is upload a file via URL which is located on the Internet.

Uppy does have URL upload, but you do need Companion or something compatible running server-side to use it: Import from URL | Uppy

I’m not sure which service shall fulfill my demand, import from URL or http/export. I just want to upload a file (which is accessed via a URL) to my cloud. Do I have to stay online to wait for the upload process to finish?

Import from URL is a feature for your users to download any file from an accessible URL. Where your files end up is a different story. If you use Transloadit and not self-hosted Companion, you can choose an export Robot of your choosing. You could for instance export to S3 and use notify_url, which you set in assemblyOptions in @uppy/transloadit, to notify your backend and make it aware where to find the files.
