Box and Postpone

# Schedule Social Posts from Box with Postpone

Postpone connects to your Box so an approved asset goes straight from the folder it was signed off in into a post, without downloading it and uploading it again. It is built for enterprise and compliance-minded teams whose media is governed in Box and published everywhere else.

## **Create Social Posts from Box**

### Post the Approved Asset, Straight From the Folder It Was Approved In

The approved asset can be in a scheduled post straight from the Box folder it was approved in, with nothing saved to anyone's laptop. Pick one file or several, video or image, and each posts in the form the platform takes it. The folder, its permissions and its retention rules keep applying to the source of record.

## **Box Files in Content Library**

### A Record of What Was Posted, Where, and When

Every file you import from Box lands in Postpone's [**Content Library**](https://www.postpone.app/features/content-library), labelled by campaign, region or the approval it came through. The library keeps a record of what has been posted, where and when, so which assets went to which accounts is never a matter of memory, and a filter shows what is still cleared and waiting.

## **Watermark and Edit Box Media**

### Brand the Published Copy and Leave the Approved File Untouched

Save the corporate mark, handle or website as a watermark preset once and every image you import from Box carries it, while the approved file is never altered: what legal signed off is still what sits in the folder. Crop, rotate or filter in Postpone's own editor, and nothing needs a second app.

## Everything Postpone Does With a File From Box

Six things a file can do once it is in Postpone, none of which need a download.

- ### Import Without Downloading

  Browse your Box from inside the upload dialog and pull a file straight into a post or the Content Library. It never passes through a downloads folder, and nothing in Box is edited, moved or deleted.
- ### Box Stays the Source of Record

  Postpone holds a copy of what you import and reads nothing else. Your Box permissions decide who can see a folder, and what a colleague cannot open in Box they cannot import into Postpone.
- ### Approvals Before Anything Publishes

  A teammate can be required to have posts approved in Postpone before they go out, so an asset imported from Box still passes review, and their permissions decide which accounts they can post it to.
- ### A Watermark on Every Import

  Your default preset, a logo or up to 500 characters of text in one of six fonts, lands on each imported image at the size, opacity and corner you set. Applied as the file arrives, if you choose.
- ### Video as Well as Images

  An MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV in Box posts anywhere the platform takes video, with a cover image of your choosing on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Pinterest and LinkedIn.
- ### Results Alongside the Record

  Every post shows up in analytics like any other, so the team can report which approved assets did the work, by impressions, views and likes.

## Connect Box to Postpone in Three Steps

Connect Box once and your files are ready to schedule.

1. 1 ### Connect your accounts

   Add the social accounts you publish to, decide who on the team can post to each, and sign in to Box the first time you import.
2. 2 ### Import a file into a post

   Bring an image or video out of Box and into Postpone without downloading it first. Whatever your Box account cannot see, Postpone cannot either.
3. 3 ### Schedule it and keep it

   Attach the file to a post, set the platforms and the time, and send it for approval if your account requires it. It stays in your library.

Questions About Postpone and Box

How Postpone reads your files, what happens to them once imported, and how approvals fit in.

[**Visit the Help Center **](https://help.postpone.app/) [**Contact us **](https://www.postpone.app/contact)

### **Why would a team use Box with Postpone rather than a consumer drive?**

Box is the option for organizations whose media already lives under enterprise controls, and Postpone imports from it the same way it imports from Dropbox or Google Drive: browse from inside the upload dialog, pull the file into your Content Library or a post, no download in between. What Box adds is that your existing permissions and retention rules keep applying to the source of record.

[**The Content Library **](https://www.postpone.app/features/content-library)

### **Does a Box import copy the file into Postpone?**

Yes, a copy lands in your Postpone Content Library and the original stays in Box, so a scheduled post publishes the version you imported rather than whatever the file becomes later. That is the behaviour you want when a shared folder is being edited by people who are not the ones scheduling.

[**The Content Library **](https://www.postpone.app/features/content-library)

### **Can approvals sit between a Box file and a published post?**

Yes, approvals are a Postpone feature rather than a storage one. A teammate can be required to have their posts approved before they publish, so a file imported from Box still goes through review, and their permissions decide which social accounts they can post it to.

[**Teams and collaboration **](https://www.postpone.app/features/teams-and-collaboration)

### **Does connecting Box let Postpone change anything in it?**

No, Postpone only reads your files in order to import them. Nothing in Box is edited, moved or deleted, and a crop, filter or watermark applied in Postpone changes the copy in Postpone, not the file in Box. Whatever your Box account cannot open, Postpone cannot import.

[**The Content Library **](https://www.postpone.app/features/content-library)

### **Does Postpone watch a Box folder and import new files on its own?**

No, Postpone imports the files you pick and nothing else. There is no folder watching and no sync, so a draft added to a folder before it is approved cannot reach your library unless someone chooses it.

[**The Content Library **](https://www.postpone.app/features/content-library)

### **Are Box imports watermarked automatically?**

Yes, Postpone applies your default watermark preset to a Box import exactly as it does to a direct upload, so the approved file does not have to carry the mark itself. Watermarks apply to images; videos and GIFs are left as they are.
