Squarespace doesn't have this feature yet. There's a file upload field for Form Blocks but now for Custom Product Forms or Custom Checkout Forms. Also, there's a third party workaround in the form of the Squarewebsites Uploader (affiliate link) but the file won't arrive with the order - it will be saved elsewhere to allow you to access it.

Hi Squarespace community,

I'm creating a site for my new architectural design business in the UK. One of the features that will set this business apart from others is that we can create model / plans of a customer's existing home based on a phone video that they send us, allowing us to work on projects anywhere in the country.  

Here's how I imagined it working:

  1. A customer purchases their services on our site, and in the confirmation email there is a link to upload their video file.
  2. Once they've taken the video with their phone, they open up the email and click on the link to upload the file.

I found a guide for setting up 'drop box' pages with Squarespace 5, which allow visitors to send files to a folder in the general site storage, which seems like it could work, but can't seem to find the equivalent for Squarespace 7.1.  

Is there a way to do this within Squarespace?  Is there a better/simpler way to achieve what I want? 

Many thanks in advance for your help!

Unfortunately the Squarewebsites Plugins team have confirmed that even if you are using their plugin to send files to your own google drive folder, there is a 10mb limit on files. That's too small for video files, so I'm looking for another solution. 

Pigeonfiles looks like it might be an answer.

Hey!   I have a related question.  My website involves me looking at a picture my client sends me (baby gender ultrasounds)  I have a form with a photo uploader working on the website, and I am about to add a payment feature, BUT I'm thinking I somehow need those combined, otherwise it will be a nightmare trying to tell who has paid and who's just sent me pictures.  Any idea of how I can make that happen?  Help!  :)
