  • Publication number: 20230195911
    Abstract: Computer-implemented systems, method and products configured for providing one or more restriction groups in a content management system are provided. One or more restriction marks may be associated with the one or more restriction groups. At least a first restriction mark may be associated with a first restriction group. The first restriction mark may be assigned to a first content item stored in the content management system, in response to determining that the first content is associated with the first restriction group, the first content item being associated with metadata indicating user access permissions according to the first restriction mark and a security classification. The metadata associated with the first content item may be updated based on the assignment of the first restriction mark to the first content item to allow or limit user access to the first content item.

  • Publication number: 20230074946
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing access to a document within a first file structure for one or more users of a content management system. Location for the content object within a file plan of a records management system is provided, in response to detecting a declaration of the document as a record. The content object is moved from the first file structure to the location in the file plan. A record marker is created in the first file structure to identify a navigation path from the first file structure to the location of the content object in the file plan.

  • Patent number: 10713368
    Abstract: A user interface for applying restriction parameters to content items and users in a grouped manner is provided. A selection of one or more restriction groups can be received through a graphical user interface on a display device associated with a content management system. One or more restriction marks associated with the one or more restriction groups can be displayed on the graphical user interface. A selection of the displayed one or more restriction marks can be received through the graphical user interface for being assigned to a content item stored in the content management system. The content item can have associated metadata stored in the content management system. Metadata associated with the content item can be updated. The updated metadata can indicate that the selection of the one or more restriction marks is assigned to the content item.

  • Patent number: 10169341
    Abstract: In-place records management can include in-place declaration of records in which a document within a document library or other first file structure associated with a content management system or application can be declared as a record such that records management controls are set for the document. The setting of the records management controls can include placing a record marker in the first file structure while the content object containing content and metadata of the document now designated as a record is relocated to a second file structure associated with a record management system or application. The record marker allows users of the content management system or application who had access to the document prior to its designation as a record to be able to access the corresponding record from within the content management system or application. Additional features can include dynamic record declaration and dynamic record handling.
