  • Publication number: 20230410053
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for implementing discoverable collaboration teams. In some embodiments, a user of a content management system can create a team account within the content management system. The team account can be associated with a domain of the user (now administrator) of the team account. The domain can be an email domain, company name, or some other identifier or characteristic of the user that might be shared with other users. The administrator can specify discoverability settings for the team that allow other content management system users associated with the domain to automatically discover and/or join the team account.

  • Patent number: 11023858
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a client application at a computing device can receive a request to generate a digital focus area based on input criteria. In response to the request, the client application can search a local storage and/or a remote storage for content related to the input criteria to yield a content collection, the remote storage being associated with a user account registered at a content management system. The client application can generate a workspace for the digital focus area, the workspace containing selected content from the content collection. The client application can pin, to a desktop displayed on the computing device, an interface object associated with the digital focus area, the interface object providing access to the workspace. The client application can then monitor events associated with the input criteria, and update the digital focus area based on one or more of the events associated with the input criteria.

  • Patent number: 10380551
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for implementing mixed collaboration teams. In some embodiments, a user of a content management system can create a team account within the content management system. The team account can be allocated resources of the content management system that allow team members to collaborate on content items (e.g., files, documents, etc.) managed by the content management system. The team can be allocated licenses to use the resources and the licenses can be allocated to team members. The team can be a mixed team including licensed and unlicensed members. Licensed members can have a higher level of access to the team resources than unlicensed members. The team administrator can manage licenses allocated to team members. The team administrator can have different privileges with respect to licensed and unlicensed team members.

  • Patent number: 10324828
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for generating annotated documentation of a web application based on scripts that simulate tasks performed within the web application. While running each script, an automated testing utility captures individual screens within the web application based on a first set of criteria. The first set of criteria includes capturing a screen after a page loads, before clicking on a DOM element, and before validating the occurrence of an element or event within the web application. An annotation engine then annotates each screen based on a second set of criteria. The second set of criteria includes highlighting each given screen based on the type event and location of the element that triggered the screen capture. The annotation utility additionally visualizes contextual metadata that provides the viewer with a reference of what they are looking at.
