    Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe surfacing a representation of digital artifacts for a user. An operation context associated with a user is identified. The operational context may correspond with an electronic document that is accessed through a productivity application. One or more of a plurality of digital artifacts may be identified based on the identified operational context. An exemplary representation of the one or more digital artifacts is surfaced through a user interface. An exemplary user interface may be a user interface of a productivity application, for example, where the electronic document is being accessed through the productivity application. In alternative examples, an exemplary user interface may be associated with a home service that is executed in association with an operating system (OS). In some instances, an operational context may change resulting in an update to an exemplary representation of digital artifacts. Other examples are also described.
