For tax preparers, accountants, and other service professionals, collecting sensitive documents from clients has always been a challenge. Traditional secure portals require clients to remember passwords, navigate unfamiliar interfaces, and often create more friction than convenience. But there’s a better way.
The Box File Requests Integration Changes Everything
SparkGrid Software’s HubSpot integration brings Box’s powerful file request feature directly into your CRM workflow. Instead of directing clients to a separate portal, you can now request documents through a seamless, branded experience that feels natural and secure.
How It Works
The process is beautifully simple. From any HubSpot contact or company record, you can generate a secure file request link with just a few clicks. Your client receives a professional email with a direct link to upload their documents—no login required, no portal navigation, just drag, drop, and done.
What makes this particularly powerful is the automation potential. Set up HubSpot workflows to automatically trigger file requests based on deal stages, contact properties, or custom events. New tax client? Automatically request their W-2s and previous returns. Onboarding a new business client? Trigger requests for financial statements and organizational documents.

Security Without Compromise
Box’s enterprise-grade security ensures documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, meeting compliance requirements for financial and healthcare industries. Yet from the client’s perspective, the experience is as simple as attaching a file to an email.
The Real Game-Changer
Perhaps the biggest advantage is context preservation. When files are uploaded, they appear directly on the HubSpot record where they were requested. No more hunting through separate systems or trying to match documents to the right client. Everything lives where your team expects to find it, creating a single source of truth for each client relationship.
For firms tired of portal friction and scattered document management, this integration offers the best of both worlds: bulletproof security with effortless client experience. Your clients get convenience, your team gets organization, and your business gets efficiency.
The future of secure document collection isn’t about building bigger walls—it’s about making the right path the easiest path.
