Frequently Asked Questions about Box + OneDrive integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Box and OneDrive
How do I start integrating Box with OneDrive?
Integration between Box and OneDrive can be started by using an automation platform. Once on the platform, you will select Box as your trigger application and OneDrive as your action application. You need to authenticate both accounts to connect them securely.
Can I automatically copy files from Box to OneDrive?
Yes, you can set up a workflow that triggers when a new file is added to Box. This trigger can prompt an action that copies the file directly to a specified folder in OneDrive.
Is it possible to sync folders between Box and OneDrive?
While direct two-way syncing isn't natively supported, you can create automations that ensure files added or updated in Box are copied or updated in specific folders on OneDrive.
What triggers are available for integration between Box and OneDrive?
Common triggers include when a new file or folder is created in Box, or when an existing file is modified. These events can initiate various actions like copying files into OneDrive.
Can I integrate specific file types from Box into OneDrive?
Yes, during the setup of your workflow, you can specify conditions such as file types (e.g., PDFs) so that only those files trigger actions to be mirrored in OneDrive.
What happens if a file is deleted in Box? Will it be deleted from OneDrive too?
Automated deletions from one service requiring deletions from another typically involve complex setup due to safeguard protocols. Usually, such actions need manual confirmation unless specifically programmed.
Are there any limitations for integrating large files between these services?
File size limits are subject to the restrictions of both Box and OneDrive individually. Ensure both platforms support the file sizes being transferred as exceeding these might prevent successful automation.
