Box.com Integration

Box.com is an online file sharing service that lets your team access content anywhere, anytime, with any device.

Logiforms has a built-in integration for Box.com so, for example, generated PDFs can be uploaded to a shared folder for processing by team members. Depending on your business requirements, you may want to add the Logiforms integration with Box Sync, a feature of Box.com that you can set up. Box Sync removes the need to log into Box.com to download files. Instead they automatically become available on your desktop when a form is submitted.

Before you begin, be sure you have a Box.com account set up. For more information see Box.com.
