Patent number: 10963430Abstract: Shared workspaces with selective content item synchronization. In one embodiment, for example, a personal computing device is configured to send a request to a server of a cloud-based content management system to join a shared workspace. The personal computing device then receives content item metadata about content items associated with the shared workspace. The content item metadata allows a user of the personal computing device to browse a content item-folder hierarchy for the content items even if only some but not all of the content items have been downloaded and stored at the personal computing device.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2018Date of Patent: March 30, 2021Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Marcio von Muhlen, George Milton Underwood, IV, Anthony DeVincenzi, Nils Bunger, Colin Dunn, Adam Polselli, Sam Jau, Nathan Borror
