Box Integration

Overview

Taskade makes it quick and easy to upload your Box files. Connect your Box account to use this feature. You only do this once.

TL;DR: Connect your Box account once, then pull Box files straight into Taskade projects, tasks, project chat, and comments. Files uploaded to a project also show up in the media manager, and cloud files can power your AI agents as knowledge sources.

📝 Note: Be sure to check our Google Drive, One Drive, and Dropbox integrations.

Box lives in the Add-ons menu. Open it, hover Upload File, then pick Box:
