{{CategoryBox|Plugins}}

[[Fishbowl Drive]] is an add-on module that can be installed from the {{Module|Plugin}}. After installing the plugin, a new button is added at the top of most modules that allows unlimited files to be associated with items in Fishbowl by simply dragging the file into Fishbowl. These files are then stored in Dropbox, Google Drive, Box.com, Microsoft OneDrive, or any FTP file server. To connect with multiple accounts simultaneously, contact your [[Account Sales Executive]] to activate additional Fishbowl Drive connections.

# Open the {{Module|{{PAGENAME}}}}, located in the '''Integrations''' group.
# Click the {{Button|New}} on the module toolbar at the top of the {{Module|{{PAGENAME}}|}}.

# Enter the credentials for the selected service and '''Allow''' Fishbowl access to the files.
# Click the '''Associated''' checkbox next to each module to display the {{Button|Drive}} at the top of that module.<br>[[File:{{PAGENAME}}.png]]
# Open a Fishbowl item in any of the associated modules and click the {{Button|Drive}} to view or add files to the selected Fishbowl item.<br>[[File:Fishbowl Drive Files.png]]
# Fishbowl users can be granted access to the files in each module by utilizing the [[Access_Rights#Drive|'''Fishbowl Drive''' access rights]].

==FTP/SFTP==
FTP and SFTP are protocols for transferring files over a network. The other integrations in the {{Module|Fishbowl Drive}} connect to a specific website (Dropbox.com, Box.com, etc.) but because FTP is just a standard method of transferring files, there are millions of possible FTP servers. You could have an FTP server running on your company's website. You could choose an online FTP provider to host your files. It is also relatively simple to have any computer on your local network host files that are available over FTP, but are not publicly available on the internet. If you'd like to connect to an FTP server, your IT professional will be able to provide you the specific credentials needed to connect to the server.

# Enter the username and password given to you by your IT professional.<br>[[File:Drive FTP.png]]
# The '''URL Address''' can be the IP address of the FTP server, or a URL that points to the server. Below are some examples.
#* <nowiki>ftp://mycompany.com</nowiki>
#* files.mycompany.com 
#* 172.217.1.###
#* 192.168.29.#
# The '''Port''' will vary depending on how the server is configured, but is often '''21''' for FTP and '''22''' for SFTP.
# The '''Base Directory''' is the folder that Fishbowl will use to store data. If it is left blank, Fishbowl will use the server's home directory.
# In the '''Type''' field, select '''SFTP''' (recommended) or '''FTP''' and then click '''OK'''.
