Abstract: The present technology pertains to synchronizing contents of a directory external to a synchronized directory by a content management system. The content management system is configured to synchronize only objects in the synchronized directory. Accordingly, the present technology creates an anchor object that represents the directory external to the synchronized directory within the synchronized directory. The anchor object includes special attributes that indicate to the synchronization client that the anchor object represents an external directory, and allows the contents of that directory to be synchronized directly to a server on the content management system without first storing the contents of the external directory on the hard drive of the client device.

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: The present technology pertains to a organization directory hosted by a synchronized content management system. The corporate directory can provide access to user accounts for all members of the organization to all content items in the organization directory on the respective file systems of the members' client devices. Members can reach any content item at the same path as other members relative to the organization directory root on their respective client device. In some embodiments novel access permissions are granted to maintain path consistency.

Abstract: An example method can include storing, on a CSM, a first content item and representations of second and third content items, the second content item having content/features enabled by a cloud service and designed for access through a native online application and the third content item having content/features supported by a local application and having additional features designed for access through a cloud service and native online application; when the first content item is invoked, presenting the content/features of the first content item; in response to a request to access the representation of the second or third content item, sending, to a cloud service, a request for the additional features of the third content item or the content/features of the second content item; and based on metadata received from a cloud service, providing the additional features/content of the third content item or the content/features of the second content item.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, non-transitory computer readable storage media, and systems that provide secure password sharing across a plurality of users and client devices via a shared folder. For example, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed system retrieves a public key set including public encryption keys for client devices having access to the shared folder. The disclosed system provides the public key set to a client device requesting to share the shared folder. The disclosed system receives an encrypted payload for the shared folder and a shared encryption key that is utilized to encrypt the payload and is encrypted in the shared folder utilizing the public key set. The disclosed system also detects key rotation events and notifies one or more client devices to generate a modified shared encryption key and re-encrypt the payload for storage within the shared folder.

Abstract: Nested namespaces for selective content sharing.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for malware detection and content item recovery. For example, a content management system can receive information describing changes made to content items stored on a user device. The content management system can analyze the information to determine if the described changes are related to malicious software on the user device. When the changes are related to malicious software, the content management system can determine which content items are effected by the malicious software and/or determine when the malicious software first started making changes to the user device. The content management system can recover effected content items associated with the user device by replacing the effected versions of the content items with versions of the content items that existed immediately before the malicious software started making changes to the user device.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that utilize machine learning models to generate identifier embeddings from digital content identifiers and then leverage these identifier embeddings to determine digital connections between digital content items. In particular, the disclosed systems can utilize an embedding machine-learning model that comprises a character-level embedding machine-learning model and a word-level embedding machine-learning model. For example, the disclosed systems can combine a character embedding from the character-level embedding machine-learning model and a token embedding from the word-level embedding machine-learning model. The disclosed systems can determine digital connections between the plurality of digital content items by processing these identifier embeddings for a plurality of digital content items utilizing a content management model.

Abstract: One or more embodiments of a video editing system enable one or more users to conveniently edit a digital video. In particular, an online content management system can provide a low resolution version of a digital video to a client device. A user can interact with the low resolution digital video and generate user edits to apply to the digital video. The online content management system can further apply any number of users edits to low and high resolution versions of the digital video at a server device. The video editing system enables users to more conveniently apply iterative edits to digital videos. Additionally, the video editing system enables multiple users to cooperatively edit a digital video from multiple client devices.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that can leverage a natural language model to determine a most probable candidate sequence of tokens and thereby generate a predicted user activity. In particular, the disclosed systems can tokenize activity event vectors to generate a series of sequential tokens that correspond to recent user activity of one or more user accounts. In addition, the disclosed systems can, for each candidate (e.g., hypothetical) user activity, augment the series of sequential tokens to include a corresponding token. Based on respective probability scores for each of the augmented series of sequential tokens, the disclosed systems can identify as the predicted user activity, a candidate user activity corresponding to one of the augmented series of sequential tokens associated with a highest probability score. Based on the predicted user activity, the disclosed systems can surface one or more suggestions to a client device.

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 client application of a content management system provides instructions for synchronizing content items and placeholder items using a local file journal and updated file journal. The client application compares entries in the updated file journal to entries in the local file journal to determine modifications to make to content items or placeholder items stored in a shared content storage directory on the client device. Based on the result of the comparison, the client application replaces placeholder items with content items or replaces content items with placeholder items.

Abstract: The present technology addresses the need in the art for an improved technology to display search query results in a space constrained area. The technology pertains to truncating search results in a way that a set of characters used in a search string remains displayed in the search results while other aspects of the search results are truncated.
