Publication number: 20240154946Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method for performing domain-wide authentication and authorization in a cloud-based environment can comprise receiving, from a third-party service of the cloud-based environment, a request to perform authentication and authorization of a user of the third-party service for accessing a cloud-based storage system of the cloud-based environment. A mapping of the user of the third-party service to a user account of the cloud-based storage system can be generated and one or more tokens for the user of the third-party service can in turn be generated based on the mapping of the user of the third-party service to the user account of the cloud-based storage system. The one or more tokens can provide access to services of the cloud-based storage system. The one or more tokens can be provided to the third-party service.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 21, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Christopher Tucker, Fernando Cerenza, Kimberly Kung, Prachi Jadhav

Patent number: 11799969Abstract: A user interface is configured to present a stream of activities that arise from operation of two or more heterogeneous applications that access shared content objects of a content management system. A first application of a first type among the heterogeneous applications interoperates with a second application of a second type. Application activity records that correspond to interactions by the second application over the shared content objects are stored. Additional interactions that are raised by the first application and that pertain to a common content object are also stored. When a user requests access to a content object of the content management system, recent application activity records are selected. Some of the selected activity records are filtered out based on permissions attributes corresponding to the content object and/or based on permissions attributes corresponding to the requesting user. An application activity stream is generated based on the selected application activity records.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2022Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: Box, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Wayne Morkovine, Michelle Sangeun Oh, Faizan N.

Publication number: 20230094015Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for shared content management systems. In a content management system that supports multiple applications that operate on shared documents, multiple modules are operatively interconnected to make and present activity-based application recommendations. Techniques for making activity-based application recommendations include recording a series of interaction events from multiple users, which events correspond to a series of interactions performed by a plurality of applications over a shared content object. Constituent interaction events from the series of interactions are analyzed to determine a set of recommended applications. The set of recommended applications is presented to a user in a dynamically-populated user interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2022Publication date: March 30, 2023Applicant: Box, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Wayne Morkovine, Michelle Sangeun Oh, Faizan N.

Methods may include, responsive to receiving the request, identifying a set of instructions to be executed, wherein the set of instructions is associated with at least one breakpoint. Methods may include initiating execution of the set of instructions. Methods may include pausing execution of the set of instructions when an instruction of the set of instructions associated with a breakpoint is reached. Methods may include, after the breakpoint is reached and before a new request is received from the client device, transmitting, to the client device, a message that indicates that a breakpoint has been reached. Methods may include terminating execution of the set of instructions responsive to determining that a debugger interface on the client device is no longer available to control execution of the set of instructions.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2019Date of Patent: April 20, 2021Assignee: ServiceNow, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Tucker, Qian Zhang, Carl David Solis, Jr.

Patent number: 10956435Abstract: Systems and methods for providing search results from large amounts of data and providing navigation within search results are disclosed. A global search across a large number of tables within a cloud infrastructure may return large amounts of data from many different sets of possibly related tables and may take a noticeable time to complete processing. Disclosed techniques provide for iterative searching of table groups (e.g., groups of related tables possibly based on expected content of those tables) and providing results incrementally, possibly based on a priority associated with each table group. Further, results may be displayed in a display format that provides the user with context of where (e.g., in which groups) matching results were obtained.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2017Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: ServiceNow, Inc.Inventors: Scott Kaufman, Christopher Tucker, Andreas Kirn
