Custom Branding for File Request is a feature that allows enterprises to apply a logo and brand color to their File Request webpages.  Custom Branding is ideal for Box customers who request content from external entities and want to provide an on-brand and more recognizable experience for content submitters. Admins can upload two logos and a default color in the Admin Console using the Account Branding functionality. These will show up as part of the available branding options for File Request creators in their enterprise. 
  • Default logos and colors will be available to select for any File Requests but can be overridden by the user

Working with Custom Branding

Here’s how you would setup branding for your File Request:
  1. Create a File Request on the folder as before  (If you need a refresher use this article: Using File Request to get Content from Anyone )
  2. Click Edit to apply custom branding.
  3. Select Theme to open Header Logo and Theme Color section
    • If your Box Admin has set a default logo and color for your enterprise, the logos will be visible. If not, the defaults will be ‘No Image’ and a no color icon no-color-icon-png.
  1. Click + to start.
  2. Click Add an Image and select the logo you would like to upload.
  3. Click Upload.
    • Uploading a new logo does not make it a default for all your File Requests. You can still select different logos for different file requests
    • Images look best at 80 pixels height, png format, and transparent background.
    • Image files must not exceed 1 mb.
  4. Next, let’s select a color. Theme Color is where you will set the background color for the file request.
    • You can select any of the predefined colors or use the + icon to select a different color. You can use the HEX code to select a color.

    • You can add any number of custom colors to the palette. However, upon saving the form, all custom colors are deleted except the one you selected.
    • After selecting your logo and color, click Preview to review your updates.
      5. Click Save or Share to save your changes. Here’s an example of a custom-branded File Request page from a File Request creator’s point of view
