Patent number: 11063888Abstract: Various embodiments provide a commenting system for multiple users to provide and share comments to shared documents. For example, users can share a web link to a collection of content items, such as documents, spreadsheets, photos, and any other media, with other users stored in an online content management system. The commenting system can provide a comment interface displayable alongside a respective content item and the comments can be saved for each user and the content item with associated comments can be synced across the multiple users. The comments can scroll independently of the content in a content item or the comments can be linked to a location therein and the scrolling of the comments can be linked to the scrolling of the content item such that corresponding comments are displayed.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2019Date of Patent: July 13, 2021Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Carriero, Mark Delamere, Phil Rha, Jon Vincent, Sujay Jayakar

Patent number: 10778763Abstract: A content item sharing and synchronization system providing team shared folders is described. Users of the system have access to the team shared folder simply by being a member of a team. A team account manager of the team can grant access to the team shared folder simply by inviting selected users to the team. Similarly, the team account manager can revoke access to the team shared folder simply by removing a user from the team. Unlike typical network file server folders, separate access control list management for the team shared folder apart from user team membership management is not needed to grant and revoke access to the team shared folder, thereby reducing administrative steps necessary to effectively manage access to the team shared folder.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: Dropbox Inc.Inventors: Anand Subramani, Mark Delamere, Emil Ibrishimov, Francois Alexander Allain

Patent number: 10482152Abstract: Various embodiments provide a commenting system for multiple users to provide and share comments to shared content items. For example, users can share a web link to a collection of content items, such as documents, spreadsheets, photos, and any other media, with other users stored in an online content management system. To enable such functionality, the online content management system can expose an application programming interface to enable third-party service providers to develop and attach a comment interface to content items. Accordingly, such a commenting system can provide a comment interface for concurrent display alongside a respective content item in which users can provide comments to shared content items or to use as notes for their personal content items.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2016Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Carriero, Mark Delamere, Phil Rha, Jon Vincent, Sujay Jayakar

Patent number: 9977917Abstract: A content management system implementing methodologies providing retroactive shared content item links is disclosed. The content management system and methodologies allow a team administrator of a team to configure a team-wide shared link policy that determines whether non-team members can access content items associated with team accounts using shared links generated for the content items by team members. The team shared link policy has two settings. In a first setting, the content management system allows non-team members to use shared links generated by team members to access content items associated with team accounts. In a second setting, the content management system blocks access to the content items by non-team members. Shared links are retroactive in the sense they do not need to be regenerated after the team shared link policy has been changed from the second setting back to the first setting.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2017Date of Patent: May 22, 2018Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Anand Subramani, Mark Delamere, Jonathan Vincent, Philip Rha, Emil Ibrishimov, Thomas Carriero, Francois Alexander Allain
