02. Changing Your Destination

You can change the destination for your collected documents at any time. After changing your destination, FileThis Fetch will begin storing all newly collected documents in the new destination.

Tip: If you want to store all your documents in a single location, you may want to download all your documents from your existing destination—before you change your FileThis destination. You can then manually add those documents to your new destination. For example, if you are changing your destination from Dropbox to Amazon Cloud Drive, download the documents from Dropbox, and then change your FileThis destination to Amazon Cloud Drive. Once FileThis fetches documents for your connections, all the folders will be set up and you can manually add your old documents. 

Selecting a New Destination
  • Using a browser: To change the destination for your collected documents, click the Destination tab. Select a different option in the Document Destination area and authorize it.
  • Using the FileThis mobile app: Tap the menu in the upper-left corner, tap Destination, then tap the option you prefer.

See "Selecting Your Destination" for details on the available destinations.

Fetching Documents for a New Destination

When you select a destination, FileThis fetches documents as follows:

  • Three Years: When you first select a destination, FileThis fetches documents from the past three years for each connection (if available).
  • One Month: When you switch to a different destination, FileThis fetches documents from the past month for each connection. Any documents fetched previously remain in their previous location.
  • All Documents: You can always ask FileThis to fetch all documents for a connection.
