Create a Client File Upload Portal for Your Agency

Why Agencies Need a File Upload Portal

Every agency knows the pain:

• "Can you send me the logo in high-res?"
• "I emailed the brand guidelines last week, check your inbox"
• "The video file was too large for email, I'll use WeTransfer"

Files scattered across email, WeTransfer, Slack, and WhatsApp. No single source of truth.

The Fix: Per-Client Upload Pages

With DriveWidget, create a dedicated upload page for each client. Files go straight to the right Google Drive project folder.

How to Set It Up

1. Organize Your Drive

Clients/
  ├── Acme Corp/
  │   ├── Brand Assets/
  │   └── Campaign Files/
  ├── TechStart/
  └── DesignCo/

2. Create One Connection Per Client

For each client folder, create a DriveWidget connection. Then create a widget:

• Slug: acme-corp-upload → URL: /u/acme-corp-upload
• Branding: Match client's colors (or your agency's)
• Form fields: Asset type (logo, photo, video, document)
• Allowed types: All common formats

3. Share with Clients

Send each client their unique upload URL. They bookmark it and use it whenever they need to send files.

Client Experience

1. Open their bookmarked upload URL
2. Drag & drop files (any size, multiple at once)
3. See upload progress
4. Done — files are in the right folder

No login. No "which email was it?" No file size limits (up to 500MB on Pro).
