Three steps to a running Box workflow

The builder keeps the order you think in: connect the app, choose what starts the workflow, add what should happen.

  1. Connect

    Authorise Box once

    Add a Box connection under Connects and reuse it in every workflow. Credentials stay in your WordPress database.

  2. Trigger

    Pick what starts it

    Start from a Box event, or from a WordPress event, a form, a webhook, a schedule or any of the 918+ integrations, then capture a sample so later steps can map real fields.

  3. Act

    Add Box steps and logic

    Chain Box actions with Router, Filter, Iterator and Delay, test each step against captured data, then switch the workflow on.

It's very straightforward, has a lot integrations and they work well. It is one thing to 'integrate' new external software, but integrating it well, with lots of options is where FlowMattic shines.

Works within WordPress, so it can easily access any inbuilt WP functions or custom functions and use them in your flow. It's easy to use and already has many useful integrations built.
