Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe processing operations that achieve file consistency in the presence of a large-scale collaboration service. A mismatch may be determined between hash values associated with two or more versions of a file that is associated with a tenant of a productivity service. Version vector data for different versions of the file may be evaluated. Version vector data may comprise: a session value indicating a session of the productivity service and a version value that indicates a number of changes made by the tenant during the session. A synchronization determination is generated based on an evaluation of the version vector data for the different versions of the file.

Abstract: A method for providing linked note-taking includes receiving a notification from an online presentation service presenting a document that a note file relating to the document has been created in a client application, requesting at least a portion of the document and document information from the online presentation service, receiving, from the online presentation service, the at least a portion of the document and document information retrieved from a client application where the document resides, receiving a note within the note file and associating the note with at least a portion of the document and document information without locally opening the document in the client application.

Abstract: A generic means for synchronizing information about a user's view of a document or other content within an application across native client and web applications is provided. Attendees of an online broadcast are enabled to see what the presenter is seeing within their own application. In addition, meeting-specific information such as the meeting time and notes may be synchronized enabling nearly real time synchronization. Moreover, by enabling attendees to view the presented document within their own applications, the attendees are afforded the capabilities provided by that application, such as navigating through the document manually.

Abstract: A notebook component within a note-taking application is utilized as a centralized mechanism for recording notations and providing documentation related to a particular meeting. The meeting participants are provided with centralized access to the notebook component and thus are able to update the notebook record of the meeting collaboratively and in real time. In addition to user-driven updates, updates may also be generated on an automatic or semi-automatic basis. Updates may be made before, during or after the actual meeting. Updates may originate from an application data source outside of the note-taking application itself.
