# How Filed DMS and PMS integrations work

Filed connects directly to your document or practice management system (DMS/PMS) — such as Canopy, Karbon, TaxDome, Google Drive, or SharePoint — through a live integration.

Once connected, Filed automatically syncs new files from your system in real time. No manual uploads, no delays — everything stays up to date and organized.

We’ll help you set up the live connection during onboarding. The process typically takes less than 30 minutes, and we’ll walk you through every step. You’ll just need to provide admin access to your software so we can complete the secure connection.

**Pro tip:** Using clear, consistent naming conventions for your files and folders helps ensure data clarity and makes it easier for your team to find what they need quickly in Filed.
