  • Patent number: 10848556
    Abstract: Systems and methods for adding digital content associated with a first user account within a content management system to a second user account within the content management system. In various embodiments, the system may be configured to allow a user to add digital content to an account within a content management system associated with the user when the user receives a shared link to access digital content associated with an account within the content management system belonging to another user. The system may be configured to add the digital content to the user account by associating the digital content with the user's account. In various embodiments, the system may be configured to add the digital content to the user's account by creating an entry in a server-side file journal associated with the user's account, where the entry includes one or more file reference strings associated with the digital content.

  • Patent number: 10454996
    Abstract: Systems according to various embodiments use a file download widget to facilitate the download of one or more files from one or more servers associated with a website. In particular embodiments, the file download widget may be used to facilitate the download of one or more particular files that are associated with the widget directly to a content management system, such as a synched or non-synched cloud-based content management system. In various embodiments, this may: (1) allow the user to download files for later use without storing the downloaded files on the user's computing device; and (2) allow the user to complete the download of files by initiating the transfer of files and then logging off of the website (and/or powering down their computing device) before the transfer of files is complete, which may result in a more convenient and enjoyable download process.

  • Publication number: 20140067929
    Abstract: A system and method of sharing files between a user of a first client device and a user of a second client device, where the first and second client devices are operatively coupled to at least one file access server via a network. The method comprises the steps of generating a file-sharing link to a file set based on a request received from a first user. A file set viewing window is opened when a second user activates the file-sharing link. The at least one file sharing access server receives a request to upload one or more files by the second user via the file sharing link, and the at least one file access server receives the uploaded one or more files and stores the files to a location designated by the link.
