File Cabinet Topping | Online Help - Bigin by Zoho CRM
File Cabinet Topping
File cabinet topping allows you to exchange files with your contacts easily. For example, Martin at Zylker Insurance has to send an insurance application form to each customer and then collect the filled out application form along with several documents like health certificate, identification proof, banking details etc., from the customer. For each customer, Martin has to manually upload the collected documents to their Bigin record as there is no direct way to share or receive files with contacts.
But, by enabling file cabinet topping for his customers, Martin can generate a unique external Workdrive link for that customer's record. He simply has to share this link with the customer. To ensure the files in the link are secure and not accessible to public, the customer will be asked to log into their Zoho account (non-Zoho users will receive an OTP on their email id listed in the record) when they click on the link.
Once verified, they can upload files directly in this link and it will be instantly available under the Files section of their Bigin record. Moreover, Martin will receive a notification via Signals in Bigin. Similarly, he can also use that link to share files with the customer and the customer will be notified by email.

Install File Cabinet topping
Log in to your Bigin account with administrator privilege.
Go to Settings > Integration/Toppings
In the Built by Bigin tab, search for File Cabinet > Click Install. As File Cabinet Topping is powered by WorkDrive, the Super Admin can connect an existing WorkDrive account. Or, a Zoho WorkDrive account will be created in the backend in the Essential plan (Addon Storage Limit : 5 GB, Trial Storage Limit : 1 GB) if you don't have a WorkDrive account.
If your existing WorkDrive account is an individual account, then it will be converted as Team Account upon integration and all Bigin org members will have access to the files added to the Bigin folder in the WorkDrive account.
