A document upload portal is a secure online space where users can log in to upload, manage, and access documents. It centralizes file submissions and tracking, so you don’t have to rely on scattered emails or shared drives. This makes it easier to keep everything organized and ensures that all documents are safely stored in one convenient place.
Softr makes it easy to create a document upload portal tailored to your needs. You can connect your existing data sources—like Airtable, Google Drive, Notion, and more—and set up a portal where users securely upload, download, and manage files. Everything happens in one place, improving organization and reducing manual follow-up.
You don’t need to write any code. Start with a template or build from scratch, customize the layout, decide who can see or upload files, and add your own branding. It’s quick to launch, simple to manage, and flexible enough to grow as your document management needs evolve.
You can add a variety of helpful features to your document upload portal, depending on your workflow. Some common options include:
\- User logins – so each person can access their own space
\- Secure file uploads – for submitting documents safely
\- Custom dashboards – to track submission status or recent uploads
\- Downloadable files – so users can access shared documents
\- Search and filters – to quickly find specific files or submissions
\- Tables and lists – to display uploaded files and their details
\- Status tracking – to show the progress of document reviews
\- Notifications – to alert users when files are received or approved
\- Permissions and roles – ensuring only authorized users can upload or view certain documents
All these features can be set up using Softr’s drag-and-drop editor, making it easy to adjust your portal as your needs change.
No coding is needed. You can build your entire document upload portal using Softr’s intuitive visual editor. From organizing file uploads to managing user permissions, everything can be customized without writing a single line of code.
Yes. You can manage multiple users or teams within a single document upload portal. Each user will only see the documents and files specifically assigned to them, based on their login and role. This is especially useful if you’re coordinating with several departments, clients, or partners who each need access to their own documents without viewing others’ information.
Softr supports a wide range of data sources for your document upload portal. You can connect to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, HubSpot, Clickup, Xano, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, BigQuery, and more. You can also bring in data and files from other systems using the REST API.
You’re not limited to just one source. You can integrate multiple data sources into the same portal and display them side by side—so your document upload portal, for example, can manage files from both Airtable and HubSpot at once. Most sources support real-time, two-way sync, so any updates in your portal or data source stay in sync automatically.
Yes, Softr gives you full control over how users experience your document upload portal. You can customize the layout, navigation, and content to match your organization’s needs and workflow. Each page or section can be shown or hidden based on who’s logged in, so every user sees only what’s relevant to them.
You can also define different user roles, such as contributor, admin, or reviewer, and set exactly what each role can view or upload. For example, users might see only their own documents, while admins can manage all uploads and files. You can personalize views by filtering files based on the logged-in user. This granular control is especially helpful when multiple teams or partners use the same portal, ensuring that everyone’s experience is secure, clear, and tailored to their role.
Yes, you can. You don’t need to have your documents stored in another system before you start building your document upload portal with Softr. If you’re starting fresh, you can use Softr Databases, which is built into the platform and works seamlessly with your portal.
If you already have files or document data in places like Airtable, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Notion, Coda, monday.com, Supabase, or SQL, you can connect those as well. The REST API connector also lets you bring in documents from other external sources. You have full control over how you organize and display files within your portal.
Yes, you can fully white-label your document upload portal in Softr. You can use your own logo, brand colors, fonts, and custom domain to make the portal feel like a natural extension of your organization. You can also remove all Softr branding so users only see your company’s identity throughout the portal experience.
Yes, you can. Softr gives you plenty of flexibility to control the design and layout of your document upload portal. You can adjust colors, fonts, spacing, and page structure to match your branding. You also have control over how each page is organized, where specific blocks go, and what different users see when they log in.
To present and manage your files, you can add the blocks that best fit your needs:
\- Table blocks – to display uploaded documents and their details
\- List or Card blocks – to highlight user submissions, categories, or document types
\- Detail View – to show information about a specific document
\- Forms – for uploading documents or collecting metadata
\- Charts – to visualize usage or file statistics
\- Calendar blocks – to display deadlines or file review dates
If your design or requirements change, you can easily make updates directly in the visual builder.
Softr is built with security as a top priority. All data in your document upload portal is encrypted both in transit (TLS) and at rest. The platform is hosted on secure, reliable infrastructure. Softr apps give you full control over user access and permissions, so you decide who can view, upload, or edit documents. You can set up role-based permissions, manage users via your data source, control visibility, and apply global restrictions to safeguard sensitive files.
If you connect external data sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, Softr does not store your documents—it only displays them in real time based on your settings. You remain in full control of who accesses your files.
Softr follows industry best practices for authentication, access control, and ongoing platform monitoring to help keep your information secure.
You can start building your document upload portal for free. Softr’s Free plan lets you publish one portal with up to 10 users and 2 user groups, and supports all standard data sources like Softr Databases, Airtable, Google Sheets, and more.
If your portal requires more users or additional features, paid plans are available to suit your needs. You can find all the details here: <http://softr.io/pricing>
Softr is designed to make it easy to build fully functional, user-facing portals—like document upload portals, resource libraries, or internal tools—without the need for coding or a development team. What makes Softr stand out is how quickly you can move from idea to a live portal, and how seamlessly it connects with your existing data sources.
Unlike some no-code tools that emphasize mobile apps or are heavily developer-focused, Softr is built for non-technical teams who want complete control over layout, user experience, and permissions. You can build on top of real-time data from tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Softr Databases, or SQL, and create secure, branded portals for your users.
Everything is customizable through the visual editor, from content and design to user visibility. With built-in user roles, forms, conditional logic, and API support, you don’t have to assemble different tools to launch a polished document upload portal.
