Overview: Custom Storage Integration With Cone

Updated today

Cone’s storage integrations are designed to let you work seamlessly with your existing storage solutions—such as Google Drive and SharePoint—without disrupting your workflow or moving your data. Here’s how the integration process works and the benefits it brings:

Seamless connection to external storage

  • Multiple storage options: Cone supports integration with popular storage platforms like Google Drive and SharePoint.

  • Easy setup: Simply navigate to Cone’s Settings, select Integrations, and find your preferred storage under the “Other” section. Click “Connect” and follow the on-screen prompts to authorize access

Flexible folder management

  • Automatic or manual folder mapping: Once integrated, you can choose to let Cone automatically create new folders for each new client, or you can manually map existing folders from your storage to specific clients in Cone

  • Folder templates: Apply folder templates to maintain a consistent and organized file structure for every client

Effortless file access and embedding

  • Direct file selection: When creating proposals or templates in Cone, you can embed media or documents directly from your connected storage. There’s no need to download files and re-upload them—just select the file you want and it’s instantly available

  • Template reusability: Save templates with embedded files for repeated use, streamlining your workflow

Integrated client file management

  • Client files: Each client in Cone has a dedicated Files tab. Here, you can view and manage the storage integration and see which folder is mapped to that client

  • Open in storage: For any file or folder, use the triple-dot menu to open it directly in your storage provider, giving you full control and visibility

Secure and organized file handling

  • Automatic storage: Any files uploaded by you or your clients—whether through proposals, client portals, or client requests—are automatically stored in the correct folder in your integrated storage

  • Data security: All files and folders remain in your connected account, ensuring your data is secure and always under your control

Enhanced client collaboration

  • Client portal integration: When clients upload files through the portal, those files are automatically saved in the appropriate folder, keeping everything organized without manual intervention

  • Client requests: Specify exactly where files should be stored when creating client requests, ensuring uploads go to the right place every time

With Cone’s storage integrations, you get the best of both worlds: the organizational power and collaboration features of Cone, and the familiarity and control of your chosen storage solution. All your files remain secure, organized, and instantly accessible—making client and document management effortless
