Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques encompass using distinct machine learning sub-models to score respective types of candidate content for the purpose of providing personalized content suggestions to end-users of a content management system. The relevancy scores generated by the distinct sub-models are mapped to expected end-user interaction scores of the candidate content scored. Content suggestions are provided at end-users' computing devices where the suggested content is selected from the candidate content based on the expected end-user interaction scores of the candidate content. For each distinct sub-model, a normalizing mapping function is solved using an optimizer that maps the relevancy scores generated by the sub-model for the candidate content to expected end-user interaction scores for the candidate content. The expected end-user interaction scores are comparable across the distinct sub-models and can be used to rank content suggestions across the distinct sub-models.

The present technology permits any object to be shared by providing a robust and flexible access control list mechanism. The present technology utilizes a data structure that is highly efficient that both minimizes the amount of information that needs to be written into any database, but also allows for fast reads and writes of information from authoritative tables that are a source of truth for the content management system, while allowing for maintenance of indexes containing more refined data that allow for efficient retrieval of certain information that would normally need to be calculated when it is needed.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to detect a delete event for a content item at a first location on a local file system of a client device, wherein the first location on the file system is managed by a content management service. The system determines a second location for the content item and whether the delete event is associated with an add event for the content item based on the second location of the content item. If the delete event is associated with the add event, the system processes the delete event with the add event in a unitary update to a local tree, wherein the local tree represents a file system state.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for dynamically selecting and sending content items to a user device based on various network and device conditions are provided. In some embodiments, a listing of images stored within a user account on a content management system may be generated, and a selection probability value may be assigned to each image within the listing. An available capacity level on the user device may be determined, and images may be dynamically selected to be sent to the user device based on the determined available capacity level and each image's selection probability value. In some embodiments, each image's selection probability value may be based on one or more factors. For example, images that have been recently viewed, recently added to a collection of images, and/or shared within a shared virtual space created by the user, may receive higher selection probability values than other images.

Abstract: A content management system can receive, from a client device, a link including an address to a network resource. The content management system can then store a link file including the link, and provide the link file on a first page of a website. Next, in response to an input received from a browser application at the client device, the content management system can extract the address from the link file and provide a second page on the website displaying the address from the link file and a graphical element configured to receive a request from the browser application to navigate to the address. In response to receiving the request from the browser application, the content management system can then instruct the browser application to navigate to the address.

Abstract: The present technology is a backup service that can provide a menu of collaboration options that can be selected within the backup service for implementation by a synchronization service. In such an embodiment, when a user selects a collaboration option from the menu of collaboration options in the backup service, the backup service can call the synchronization service to copy the backup object into the synchronization service and implement the selected collaboration option. This can provide a benefit of reducing the number of user interfaces that need to be displayed and interacted with in order to carry out the intent of the user to offer a copy of the backup object for collaboration. The present technology also provides improved user interfaces.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing content item collections. For example, in embodiment, a client device may receive first user input selecting a content item collection. The client device may generate a graphical user interface for presenting the content item collection. The content item collection may include one or more tiles. Each tile may correspond to a content item embedded into the content item collection and stored by a content management system. The client device may present the content item collection including the one or more tiles. The client device may present, within each of the one or more tiles, an image representing the corresponding content item.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a system for synchronizing content with client devices receives a request from a client device to synchronize operations pertaining to content items associated with a user account registered at the system. The request can include the operations and a cursor identifying a current position of the client in a journal of revisions on the system. Based on the operations, the system generates linearized operations associated with the content items. The linearized operations can include a respective operation derived for each of the content items from one or more of the operations. The system converts each respective operation in the linearized operations to a respective revision for the journal of revisions and, based on the cursor, determines whether the respective revision conflicts with revisions in the journal. When the respective revision does not conflict with revisions in the journal, the system adds the respective revision to the journal.

Abstract: The present technology is directed to providing a backup service utilizing a bi-directional synchronization architecture. In order to support both a backup service and a bi-directional synchronization service, the present technology can utilize a special object called an anchor that only permits unidirectional synchronization. Additionally, the present technology separates the backup service from the bi-directional synchronization service. This separation includes utilizing a separate backup directory and bi-directional synchronization directory on a client device, which in turn benefits from the use of a separate instance of the synchronization service on the client device. Further, at the content management system various steps are taken to separate the backup directory from the bi-directional synchronization directory to ensure no objects from the backup directory appear in a user interface related to bi-directional synchronization, and vice versa.

Abstract: The present technology provides an improved search interface that provides suggested search terms in a variety of categories. The suggested search terms are first presented in an “empty search state” i.e., before the user has entered any search terms. And the suggested search terms are repeatedly refined as the user provides inputs into the search interface until a number of search results are few enough that the interface provides search results. The present technology also provides improved search suggestions. In particular, the present technology utilizes predictive algorithms including machine learning algorithms to intelligently provide suggested search terms in the variety of categories.
