Documentation
Everything Boita does, written down.
Boita documentation, page by page: sending files, share links, portals, review, projects, automations, desktop and mobile apps, security, billing, API.
Start here
- Getting startedCreate a workspace, verify your email, install the desktop app, upload your first files and send a share link — and where everything lives in the app.
- Sending filesHow uploads work in Boita — from the browser, the desktop app, the phone and the command line — with resume, checksums, priority lanes, versions and trash.
- Share links & delivery pagesEverything a share link can do — expiry, passwords, verification, embargoes, view-only, watermarks, review roles — and what the receipt records.
Receiving and reviewing
- Upload portals & requestsGive clients a page that lands files straight in your folder — with a form, file rules, a size cap, a deadline with invited uploaders, reminders and review.
- Review & approvalGive each recipient a role, approve or request changes per file, remind approvers, reply in threads with @mentions and timecodes, and export comments.
- Projects & searchGroup a client job’s links, portals and deliveries under one project; find files by name, tag, codec, resolution, size, date or custom fields; save searches.
- Automations & email-inRules that email, post to Slack, tag or turn a landed folder into a delivery link when files arrive; an email-in address for attachments; calendar links.
Apps
- Desktop app & watch foldersThe desktop app carries the transfer engine, moves whole folders and runs watch folders; the Linux agent and the boita CLI do the same on servers.
- Mobile appBrowse and search files, make share links, run portals, upload photos and documents, send from a computer running the desktop app, and watch transfers.
- WhatsApp deliveriesAdd recipients by WhatsApp number, send each their personal link with the message filled in, and get their replies as comments on the delivery.
Your brand and your rules
- WatermarksTick Watermark on a link and every preview, video and image a recipient sees or downloads carries their name and yours; gone when the link ends.
- Branding & domainsYour logo, colour and message on delivery pages, portals and emails; delivery mail from your own domain; share pages and portals on your own hostname.
- Security & governanceTwo-factor and passkeys, sessions, roles and folder access, policies such as legal hold, single sign-on, admin scopes, audit exports, SIEM and IP allow-lists.
- Billing & plansWhat each plan includes, how payment, GST, cancellation and referral credits work, what happens over quota, and the support you are entitled to.
Help
- TroubleshootingWhat the transfer path labels mean, why a transfer is slow or fails, the port to open, what each error message means, and how to check health.
- API referenceEvery public Boita API endpoint with parameters, request and response schemas, scopes, and examples in curl, TypeScript and Python, from the OpenAPI document.
- DPDP statementFor recipients and uploaders under India’s DPDP Act, 2023: what a delivery or portal page collects, why, how long it is kept, and whom to write to.
