How Customers are Using YouSendIt for Business APIs

Distributing Automated Reports

Many departments—including Finance, Sales, and Marketing— require periodic distribution of business reports. YouSendIt for Business can automatically and securely deliver these reports to the appropriate recipients at set dates and times, or based on specific event triggers.

Automatically Bundling and Delivering Files

Companies often need to transfer multiple files at the completion of specific workflows. With YouSendIt for Business, a company can automatically bundle and deliver multiple files in a single folder. For example, mortgage lenders and real estate offices can automatically deliver completed loan documents in a single folder when a loan is approved.

Receiving Customer Log Files for Troubleshooting

Customer Support teams often rely on large log files to help customers troubleshoot issues. With YouSendIt for Business, companies can integrate a “Send Log Files” button into their software—a one-click solution that collects the appropriate log files automatically and securely delivers them to the Customer Support team.
