Dropbox integration

Files

Every client's documents in one folder, on your own Dropbox or OneDrive — organised, linked, and filed automatically.

Overview

OneHQ keeps every client's documents in one folder per client, filed in your own storage — Dropbox or OneDrive / SharePoint. Your files stay where they are; OneHQ organises them, links each folder to the right client, and puts them wherever you're working.

Open a client and their documents are right there. Because the folder is tied to the client record rather than a filename, everything filed under them turns up in the one place — no hunting through a shared drive.

Only the right people see the detail. A folder's name is visible across the practice, but its contents open only for staff allocated to that client.

Working with files

Upload a document straight to a client's folder — up to 50 MB a file — and it's filed against that client from the moment it lands. No copying paths around, no dragging it into the right place afterwards.

Rename a folder and nothing breaks. The link is to the folder itself, not its name — so tidying a client folder in Finder or Explorer is fine, and it stays tied to the client.

Signing, joined up

Files tie into the rest of OneHQ. Drop a document into To Sign and it flows straight into e-signing; once it's signed, the finished PDF files itself back to the client's folder — nothing to move by hand.

For the full signing workflow, see the E-signing support page.

Keeping your drive tidy

Files Health reconciles your drive against your client list and flags where they've drifted apart — a client with no folder, a folder no client claims, a folder renamed outside OneHQ — each with a safe, one-click fix.

Moving from an older system? Migration Intake gives you a drop-folder: put the old files in, and OneHQ files what it can match against the right clients.

Connect or manage your storage — and find these tools — under Settings → Integrations → Files.

Frequently asked questions

Your own — Dropbox or OneDrive / SharePoint. Your files stay in your storage; OneHQ organises them and links each folder to the right client. Nothing is locked away in a system you can't get to.

Under Settings → Integrations → Files. That's also where the drive-maintenance tools live.

Nothing breaks. OneHQ links to the folder itself, not its name, so a rename in Finder or Explorer is fine — the folder stays tied to the client, and Files Health will note the name has drifted from the client record if you'd like it put back.
