Abstract: A computer implemented method for distributing, collecting and monitoring assignments by a content management system. The method includes receiving a request for a file request from a teacher to distribute an assignment to one or more students. In response to receiving the request, the teacher is prompted for information associated with the assignment. The information can include a name for the assignment, an assignment file and a collection identifier. In response to receiving the information, one or more metadata tags are generated based on the received information. The file request is distributed along with the one or more metadata tags to the one or more student.

Abstract: In some examples, a system for server-side rendering of password-protected files can receive, from a client device, a request to view a file on the system, determine that the file should be converted to a different format prior to presentation at the client device, and determine that the file is a password-protected file. The system can send a response to the client device indicating the file is a password-protected file. In response to receiving the password from the client device, the system can generate, based on the password, a preview of the password-protected file including at least a portion of the password-protected file rendered in the different format. After generating the preview, the system can store an encrypted copy of the preview in storage for future requests, and send the preview to the client device.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for distributing, collecting, monitoring and releasing assignments by a content management system. The method includes distributing file requests for assignments to students. Each file request includes one or more metadata tags. Students submit assignments in response to the file requests with the assignments being stored and associated with the file requests using the one or more metadata tags. In response to a release command, the assignments are searched based on one or more metadata tags and assignments associated with a student can be released to the student.
