Turn Box Files Into Google Tasks Automatically

Neotask connects Box and Google Tasks so documents instantly become organized, trackable action items without any manual copying.

Files Become Tasks

New Box uploads trigger Google Tasks automatically, with file links and due dates attached.

Zero Manual Entry

Stop copy-pasting file names into task lists - Neotask handles every handoff for you.

Full Two-Way Sync

Completing a Google Task can archive the linked Box file, keeping both systems clean.

What You Can Automate

Contract Review Pipeline

When a PDF lands in your Box contracts folder, a review task is created in Google Tasks with a direct link and a three-day deadline attached.

Project Kickoff Checklists

When a project brief is uploaded to Box, Neotask parses it and builds a Google Tasks checklist covering each deliverable mentioned in the document.

Archive Files on Completion

Marking a Google Task complete automatically moves the linked Box file to your designated archive folder without any manual steps.

Folder-Based Task Routing

Files dropped into a specific Box folder are routed to a designated Google Tasks list so work always reaches the right owner.

Daily Inbox Digest

Each morning, Neotask scans a Box folder and creates a prioritized Google Tasks list of files that need attention today.

How It Works

Connect Your Accounts

Link Box and Google Tasks to Neotask using standard OAuth - no admin access or IT involvement required.

Tell Neotask which Box folders to watch and what Google Tasks to create, including due date logic and task list routing rules.

Let It Run Automatically

Neotask monitors your Box folders and creates, updates, or closes Google Tasks in real time based on the rules you set.

Why Box and Google Tasks Work Better Together

Box stores your enterprise content - contracts, briefs, reports, and project files. Google Tasks holds your to-do list. But the gap between the two has always required someone to manually create tasks from documents, copy file links, set due dates, and route work to the right person.

Neotask closes that gap. By connecting Box and Google Tasks through natural language, you describe the workflow you need and Neotask configures it - no code, no brittle webhook setups, no third-party automation builders to maintain.

Built for High-Volume Document Teams

Teams that handle large document volumes - legal, compliance, operations, project management - spend a disproportionate amount of time on the handoff between receiving a file and acting on it. A contract arrives in Box. Someone notices it. Someone else creates a task. Due dates get set manually. Files get lost in folders when tasks close.

Neotask automates every step of that sequence. When a file lands in a Box folder, the task is created immediately - with the file name, a direct link back to Box, and a due date calculated from your review SLA. When the task is marked complete, the file moves to the archive. The loop closes without anyone touching it.

Flexible Enough for Any Workflow

You are not locked into one pattern. Neotask lets you describe exactly what you need: route files from a specific subfolder to a specific Google Tasks list, assign tasks based on file type, skip task creation for certain extensions, or batch-create a checklist from a multi-section document. Each workflow is configured in plain language and runs on autopilot from that point forward.

Why Teams Choose Neotask

Unlike point-to-point integrations that break when APIs change, Neotask uses an AI agent that understands the intent behind your request. Add new rules, change routing logic, or expand to additional folders just by describing the change - no developer required.

Pro Tips

Tip

Use a dedicated Box folder per project so Neotask can route tasks to the correct Google Tasks list without ambiguity.

Tip

Include due date logic in your prompt - for example, 'set due date to three business days after upload' - so Neotask calculates deadlines automatically.

Tip

Pair the archive workflow with a completed-task filter in Google Tasks to keep your active list focused on open items only.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Neotask need admin access to Box?

No. Neotask connects using standard Box OAuth with the permissions you grant during setup. Read and write access to specific folders is sufficient for most workflows. You control which folders Neotask can see.

Can Neotask watch multiple Box folders at once?

Yes. You can configure separate rules for as many Box folders as you need, each routing to a different Google Tasks list or applying different due date and priority logic.

What happens to existing files in a Box folder when I set up a workflow?

Neotask only acts on new uploads by default. If you want to process existing files, ask Neotask to run a one-time scan of the folder and create tasks for any files that do not already have one.

Can I route different file types to different task lists?

Yes. Describe routing rules in plain language - for example, send PDFs to one list and spreadsheets to another - and Neotask applies the logic automatically.
