Saving submission data from an automated frevvo form or workflow to your box .com account, is easily done with the Box connector and the Save to box.com wizard. Once the connector is installed (in-house) and configured, simply run the Save to box.com wizard to connect your form/flow to box. Submissions from  are posted to the Box Connector using the Doc Action Save to box.com wizard.

You can also choose which documents get saved including generated files e.g. a Government W-4 for an Employee On-Boarding workflow.

When the form or flow is submitted, the selected documents, such as Student Registrations, Purchase Orders, mapped PDFS like a W-4, Patient Referrals etc, are uploaded to your box account to the specified folder. Once in box, you can use all their features to collaborate, share and manage the documents.
