Box Integrations let you connect Box to the tools your teams already use—so you can create, collaborate, automate, and manage content without leaving your workflows. Integrations help you keep all files stored securely in Box while still working in applications like Slack, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, DocuSign, Zoom, Salesforce, and more.
If your organization uses multiple productivity or collaboration tools, integrations ensure Box becomes your single source of truth for content

Once you know which integrations you want to use, you’re ready to connect your first one.
The steps below will walk you through it.
How to add an integration
Follow these steps to connect an app to Box:
Sign in to Box on web.
In the left navigation, open Integrations (or go to your Profile Menu → Apps/Integrations).
Browse categories or use Search to find the application you want to add.
Select the integration tile to open its details.
Click Add / Connect / Install (label may vary by partner).
Review permission requests, then approve access.
Sign into the partner service if prompted (SSO recommended for enterprise security).
Once complete, you’ll see the app under My Integrations.
If you don’t see an Install button:
Your admin may need to enable the app for your organization.
Monitor & Maintain Integrations
Healthy integrations require occasional review — especially in evolving environments.
Monitor integration usage
Admins should periodically check:
Which integrations are installed the most
Where adoption is low and may need training
If any apps are no longer needed
Usage analytics or simple team surveys work well.
Review permissions regularly
When people change teams or leave the company, confirm:
Access to Box folders matches their role
External apps don’t retain unnecessary access
Legacy accounts or tokens are removed
This protects content security long term.
Update or retire unused integrations
If an integration is failing or unused:
Re-train users on benefits
Replace it with a better-fit application
Deactivate it if no longer necessary
Cleaner environments reduce confusion and risk.
