■Overview
Do you manually back up important files stored in Box to Google Drive? This process is time-consuming and comes with the risk of missed backups. This workflow automates backup creation in Google Drive whenever a file is uploaded to Box. Automating backups reduces the burden of manual file management and helps you establish a secure data storage process.
■Who Should Use This Template
- Anyone who uses Box and Google Drive together and finds manual file backups time-consuming
- Anyone looking to strengthen their data management process by preventing missed backups of important files
- Anyone responsible for improving file management efficiency by automating backups
■Benefits of Using This Template
- Backups are created automatically when a file is uploaded to Box, reducing the time spent on manual tasks
- Automating backups helps prevent human errors such as missed backups and selecting the wrong files
■How the Flowbot Works
- First, connect Box and Google Drive to Yoom
- Next, select Box as the trigger and set the “When a file is uploaded to a folder” action
- Then, set the “Download a file” action for Box as an operation and select the file detected by the trigger
- Finally, set the “Upload a file” action for Google Drive as an operation and store the downloaded file
※“Trigger”: An action that starts the flow. “Operation”: An action that processes data within the flow after the trigger starts.
■Customizing This Workflow
- In the Box trigger settings, specify the content ID of the folder you want to back up
- In the Google Drive file upload settings, specify the ID of the folder where you want to store the files
■Notes
- Connect both Box and Google Drive to Yoom.
- The maximum file size available for download is 300 MB. Depending on the app specifications, the limit may be less than 300 MB.
- For details on the file size limits for triggers and individual operations, see this article.
