  • Publication number: 20170285889
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for pinning items that span across multiple containers in a collaboration environment. In one aspect, a set of pinned items may be provided based on a container. For example, a first container may comprise a folder having a first metadata driven view that includes a first set of pinnable items. In another example, a second container may comprise the folder having a second metadata driven view that includes a second set of pinnable items. Pinnable items from the first set of pinnable items may be pinned as a tile in a top position within the first metadata driven view. Pinnable items from the second set of pinnable items may be pinned as a tile in a top position within the second metadata driven view.
