# How to use MASV Portals to send files to integrations
## Upload once and deliver files to one or more cloud services and on-prem storage locations
MASV [Portals](https://help.massive.io/en/how-to-create-a-portal-in-masv?hsLang=en) are a fantastic way to collect files from clients, colleagues, and contributors outside your organization. What makes them even more powerful is connecting them with one or more of the cloud service or on-premises storage [integrations](https://help.massive.io/en/what-is-masv-cloud-integrations?hsLang=en) available in MASV.
After you connect an integration in MASV, you can use any of your portals to automatically forward files to the integrations you want.
**Example**: You're in the field, you have important files to send, and they need to end up in three places:
- [Frame.io](https://help.massive.io/en/how-to-connect-a-storage-device-in-masv?hsLang=en)—ASAP for review.
- Backup in [Amazon S3](https://help.massive.io/en/how-to-connect-to-aws-s3-bucket?hsLang=en) storage.
- [On-premises NAS](https://help.massive.io/en/how-to-connect-a-storage-device-in-masv?hsLang=en) for a production team.
You can use a single portal to automatically deliver the files to all three locations.
For information about integrations available in MASV, see [What integrations does MASV support?](https://help.massive.io/en/what-is-masv-cloud-integrations?hsLang=en)
#### Adding custom subdirectories
You can also specify subdirectories (see [**Portal Integration Settings**](https://help.massive.io/en/portal-integration-settings?hsLang=en)) for integrations associated with a portal. For example, in the **Portal Integration Settings**, you can append a subfolder to the path specified for an integration. Files delivered to the portal are saved to the corresponding subfolder(s).
**Example**:
Amazon S3 integration with MASV:
Root = **projects**
Target Directory = **2025**
Portal A:
Subdirectory setting for Amazon S3 integration = **project-a**
Files transferred to Amazon S3 via portal A will be delivered to **projects/2025/project-a**
**Tip:** If you have a Custom Form associated with your portal, you can choose to dynamically route packages according to metadata. For more information, see[How to use custom metadata with integrations to dynamically route portal packages](https://help.massive.io/en/how-to-dynamically-route-packages-with-custom-metadata?hsLang=en).
#### To enable integrations for a MASV Portal
1. In the **MASV Admin Console** (formerly MASV Web App), select **Request Files with Portals** in the sidebar.
2. On the **Request Files** page, find the portal you want to use. In the **Actions** column, select the vertical dots icon **︙** , and choose **Edit** from the menu.
3. On the **Edit Portal** page, select the **Integrations** tab, and in the **Status** column select the toggle beside the connections you want to enable. Select as many integrations as you need.
4. (Optional) To specify a subdirectory for an integration, in the **Settings** column, select the **Edit** icon  and enter a destination **Subdirectory** field in the **Portal Integration Settings** window. The subdirectory is appended to the path for the integration. For example, it is added to the root and relative path (Target Directory) that you specified for the integration. If a Target Directory was specified for the integration, it displays to the left of the subdirectory box. For information about other **Portal Integration Settings**, see [How to customize MASV Portal integrations.](https://help.massive.io/en/portal-integration-settings?hsLang=en)
5. Select **OK**.
6. At the bottom of the page, select the **Save** button to apply your changes.
That's it! Now every time files are delivered using the portal, MASV automatically transfers those files to the selected integrations, using the path and directory you set. These transfers count towards your total data usage in the same way as a download counts.
**Note**: You can turn off an integration by following the same steps and disabling the toggle for the portal.
**Note**: If you change your integration settings while an upload to MASV is in progress, the new settings are applied to the package if it isn't a MASV Express transfer. For example, if one integration is enabled at the start of the upload and you enable a second integration before the upload to MASV is complete, the package will be delivered to both integrations.
**Tip**: You can use the **Actions** menu on the **Request Files** page to send the portal link to other people (**Send Upload Request**) or to get a link that you can use yourself (**Copy Portal Link**).
