Abstract: Providing user interaction guidance for services and associated applications may become more difficult as their variety and depth increases. Embodiments are directed to managing activation of and providing guidance on how to use a hosted service. For example, an initial configuration of a user interface (UI) of the hosted service that includes at least one element to highlight functionality may be provided for display. An initial action may be received from a user associated with the functionality, the initial action may be performed, and the UI may be updated to reflect the performed initial action. The initial action may be an activation action or upload action, for example. Additionally, a teaching UI element with a celebratory message to highlight the performed initial action and to provide additional information may be provided for display and rendered at a proximate position to a representation of the performed initial action.

Abstract: Described herein is a system architecture that supports generating analytics data about files hosted by a file hosting server. Also described herein are various graphical user interfaces that are well-suited to present at least a portion of the analytics data to a user.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for tracking user progress as a user navigates an application across multiple endpoints. In one aspect, an action control may be presented within an application including a plurality of actions to be completed by a user while using the application. At least a first action of the plurality of actions may be presented in the action control when the application is accessed by a first endpoint. Subsequent to the first action being completed, at least a second action may be presented in the action control when the application is accessed by a second endpoint. At least one action of the plurality of actions is associated with an endpoint on which the action is to be completed.
