Abstract: A collaborative content management system (CMS) is disclosed herein for processing electronic signature data in a collaborative environment and performing actions based on the received data. The CMS may receive a selection of a content item to be electronically signed by one or more users. Upon receipt of the selection, the CMS may generate a fillable form and send the fillable form to be electronically filled out signed. When each user fills out and signs the form, the CMS may receive that form data and aggregate the form data with previously received form data. The CMS may determine whether the aggregated form data meets one or more conditions stored within the CMS and perform appropriate actions based on one or more conditions that are met.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for generating and managing multilocational data blocks, generating and summarizing content blocks within a virtual space interface, and generating and providing a content block browser as part of a virtual space platform. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems generate a multilocational data block that includes a block identifier that is tied to a source identifier for embedding digital content from a network location indicated by the source identifier. The disclosed systems can also generate block summaries from content blocks for presenting and modifying digital content embedded within the content blocks via block identifiers and source identifiers. In some embodiments, the content block system can provide a content-block-based web browser in the form of a virtual space that includes embedded content blocks that integrate webpage functionality.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for shared folder backed integrated workspaces. In some implementations, a content management system can provide a graphical user interface (GUI) that integrates communications and content management into a single user interface. The user interface can include mechanisms that allow a user to provide input to generate a new workspace. The user interface can provide a mechanism to allow a user to view conversations related to the workspace and/or content items associated with the workspace. The user interface can present representations of content items associated with the workspace and allow the user to provide input to generate, view, edit, and share content items associated with the workspace.

Abstract: A content management system for collecting files from one or more submitters in a collection folder. A collector, who generates the collection folder, can invite one or more submitters to submit one or more files to the collection folder in response to a public file request. The one or more submitters have limited rights to the collection folder. The limited rights can include uploading rights and prohibiting a submitter from viewing files that other submitters associated with the collection folder submitted. Thus, the collection folder is able to store files from the one or more submitters, but prevent them from viewing other's submissions.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to initiating and then sharing a capture session. According to at least one example, the present technology includes receiving, from a first device, a request to initiate a shared capture session. In response, the first device launches a capture session that receives audio, video, and screen data from the first device. The first device can then share the capture session with another user, via a link. After a second user selects the link at a second device, audio and video data from the second device are added to the capture session. The capture session aggregates and captures the audio, video, and screen data from both devices. After the capture session ends, a captured media object from the capture session can be stored at the first device, and sent to the second device, and the content management system.

Abstract: A system and method for protecting information managed by a content management system are disclosed herein. A first server of the content management system receives a request from a user or service to access a data item managed by the content management system. The first server determines a data type associated with the requested data item. The first server accesses a access control list to determine whether the user or service has permission to access data associated with the data type. The first server processes the request, based on a determination that the user or service has permissions to access data associated with the data type.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing projects in a content management system. In some embodiments, a content management system can generate a graphical user interface that presents a centralized view of a project. For example, the project can include project members, content items, tasks assigned to project members, communications between project members and activity history for the project. The graphical user interface can present this project data (e.g., project members, content items, tasks, communications, activity, etc.) so that a project member can easily and quickly view multiple aspects of the project.

Abstract: The present technology can move operating system folders into a sync folder of a cross platform content management system, and redirect the operating system to look for the OS folders in the sync folder. The present technology also provides an invariant checker to make sure that another application has not moved the OS folders after they have been placed in the sync folder, and provides solutions when the OS folders are moved out of the sync folder of the content management system. Additionally, when OS folders for multiple client devices are in the sync folder on the content management system, the present technology can provide a mechanism to make the content items in an OS folder on a first client device also sync into an OS folder on second client device.

Abstract: A system can selectively synchronize content based on synchronization settings. In some examples, a client stores a local tree representing a local set of content items associated with an account on a content management system, the local tree including respective local nodes corresponding to the local set of content items. The client stores a remote tree representing a remote set of content items associated with the account, the remote set being stored at the content management system and including respective remote nodes corresponding to the remote set of content items. The client receives a synchronization setting disabling local storage of the content item. In response, the client deletes a local copy of the content item, removes a corresponding local node from the local tree, and adds, to a remote node on the remote tree, an attribute indicating that local storage of the content item has been disabled.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing projects in a content management system. For example, the content management system can create a project folder (e.g., shared folder) for managing data associated with a project. The project folder can be shared with content management system users (e.g., project members) who are contributors to the project. The content management system can store project data (e.g., content items, communications, comments, tasks, etc.) related to the project in the project folder. When the project folder is selected by a user, the content management system can generate a project folder view that presents the project data associated with the project folder and/or project in a convenient and easy to access graphical user interface. The content management system can aggregate project data from various content items associated with the project and present the project data in a single graphical user interface.

Abstract: A message can be selectively provided to users of an online content management service based at least in part on a user relationship between the users and a shared content item. Users having the user relationship associated with the message can be shown the message, where users without the user relationship are not shown the message. For example, a message can be configured to be shown upon the first time a content item is opened by a user, but not on subsequent openings of the content item.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to receive a request to capture active application content of a client application running on a client device and generate, based on raw digital data from the client application, an object structure representing the active application content of the client application. The object structure comprises application data including information about the client application, content data including information about the active application content, and a data block including at least a portion of the raw digital data from the active application content. The system may further store the object structure representing the active application content on the client device.

Abstract: A consistency verification system that verifies data consistency in a content item management system. The system processes a write request. The write request includes a set of preconditions, a key, and data to write in a write operation. Processing the write request includes determining that the set of conditions are met, committing the write request at a commit time, and assigning a timestamp indicating the commit time to the write request. The system verifies data consistency associated with the write request. The verifying data consistency includes sending a replay request corresponding to the write request. The system determines whether results of the replay are consistent with results of the write request. Responsive to determining whether results of the replay are consistent with results of the write request, the system outputs information describing data inconsistency.

Abstract: A content management system obtains at least a portion of a meeting transcript based on an audio stream of a meeting attended by a plurality of users, the meeting transcript obtained in an ongoing manner as words are uttered during the meeting. The content management system detects text entered by a user of the plurality of users into a content item during the meeting. The content management system matches the detected text to at least part of the at least the portion of the meeting transcript. The content management system provides the at least part of the at least the portion of the meeting transcript to the user as a suggested subsequent text.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for generating, managing, and restoring data backups for user account data at network-based third-party systems. For example, the disclosed systems generate data backups within a content management system to store user account data from third-party systems such as social media systems, photo library systems, video sharing systems, and others. In some cases, the disclosed systems detect changes to data a third-party system and further updates a stored data backup corresponding to the third-party system based on the detected changes.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for providing an embedded web view of a folder in a content management system on a web page. For example, a user can request from a content management system code for embedding a web view of a content item or group of content items (e.g., folder) into a web page. After the code is embedded into the webpage, the web page can present a web view of the content item or group of content items that is dynamically updated when the content item or group of content items is updated. Thus, the user is relieved of the burden of updating the web page with new links to reflect changes in content items stored in the online content management system.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for generating meeting insights based on media data and device input data. In one or more embodiments, the system analyzes media data and inputs to client devices associated with a meeting to determine a portion of the meeting that is relevant for a user. In one or more embodiments, the system generates a meeting summary, meeting highlights, or action items related to the media data to provide to the client device. In one or more embodiments, the system also uses the summary, highlights, or action items to train a machine-learning model for use with future meetings.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods that efficiently and effectively generate an enhanced document image of a displayed document in an image frame captured from a live image feed. For example, systems and methods described herein apply a document enhancement process to a displayed document in an image frame that result in an enhanced document image that is cropped, rectified, un-shadowed, and with dark text against a mostly white background. Additionally, systems and method described herein determine whether a stored digital content item includes a displayed document. In response to determining that a stored digital content item does include a displayed document, systems and methods described herein generate an enhanced document image of a displayed document included in the stored digital content item.
