Connect your Box account

To connect your Box account to Parabola, select Authorize and follow the prompt to grant Parabola access to your Box files.

Custom settings

Once you have authorized your Box account, select your file in the File dropdown.

Additionally, you can tell Parabola if you're using a different delimiter, such as tab (\t) or semicolon (;), by selecting in the Delimiter dropdown. By default, Parabola will use the standard comma (,) delimiter.

Helpful tips

• Any changes made to the selected Box file will be automatically synced with Parabola the next time you open or run your flow.
• Box's API runs on a 10 minute delay for newly created files. If your newly added Box file does not immediately appear in the File dropdown, check back in a few minutes.

Connect your Box account

To connect your Box account to Parabola, select Authorize and follow the prompt to grant Parabola access to your Box files.

Custom settings

Select the File dropdown to choose if you want to overwrite an existing file or create a new file.

If creating a new file, give the file a name in the New File Name field.

You can also decide if this is a one-off creation, or if you'd like to create a new file every time your flow runs. If you choose to create a "New File Every Run", each new file will have a timestamp appended to the file name in Box.

Helpful tips

• Anyone with access to an existing file will be able to see and use the changed data.
• Box's API runs on a 10 minute delay for newly created files. If your newly added Box file does not immediately appear in the File dropdown, check back in a few minutes.
• Upload size using our Box step is limited to ~50MB. If you are at or nearing this file size limit, we recommend splitting the file to prevent errors!
