Frequently Asked Questions
Does this require a Notion integration?
No, BeamUp works independently through embed. No API keys or complex integration setup needed. Just create your portal and embed the link.
What file size limits apply?
None. Unlike Notion's 5MB limit, BeamUp allows unlimited file sizes. Files go directly to your cloud storage, which handles files of any size.
Do uploaders need a Notion account?
No. Anyone with access to the Notion page can upload files through the embedded widget. No accounts required for senders.
Where do the files actually go?
Files go directly to your connected cloud storage (S3 or Google Drive). They don't pass through Notion's servers or count against your Notion storage.
