Automations
Automations: Box
Watch a Box folder and convert PDFs into structured data automatically.
This guide covers the Box specifics for an automation.
Connect Box
- Open Automations → New automation.
- Pick your document type, then choose Box as the input.
- Click Connect Box and authorize DocuClipper in the Box OAuth screen.
- Pick the folder to watch once you return.
How it works
- DocuClipper polls the watched folder on the automation's schedule.
- Files that have already been processed are skipped.
- Converted output can land in a separate Box folder, or be posted to a webhook.
Enterprise Box notes
For Box Business / Enterprise tenants, a Box admin may need to pre-approve DocuClipper in the Box Admin Console before individual users can connect. Ask your Box admin to approve the app if the OAuth flow fails with a "Requires admin approval" error.
