Box is a cloud content management and file-sharing platform for secure collaboration. Connecting to Cognito Forms turns submissions into organized files and folders—naming items from fields, attaching uploads, and keeping folders up to date.
Centralize entries in Box to cut busywork, speed sharing, and reduce file risk.
- Fewer manual downloads
