Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for authenticating a user account with a content management system are disclosed. A synchronized content management system may receive an identifier via a first access platform. The identifier may be associated with a device. The content management system can generate a link based on the identifier and the device. The link may be then send to the device by using the identifier. When accessed by the device, the link may authenticate a user account associated with the device at a second access platform.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for authenticating a user account with a synchronized content management system are disclosed. A synchronized online content management system may receive a request from a client device to access content in the content management system via a web browser that is running on the client device. The system may identify that a client-side application for the content management system has been installed on the client device and that the client-side application is already logged into a user account with the content management system. The system can cause the web browser to open a local host connection to the client-side application such that the web browser may be able to obtain from the client application some user account identifying information for the user account. The system can then cause the web browser to log into the user account by using the user account identifying information.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for creating shared virtual spaces using a client device. For example, the disclosed systems receive a request from a user to share one or more digital content items with other users via a shared virtual space. The disclosed systems queue a request to send data to a content management system to create the shared virtual space. In some instances, the disclosed systems can determine that a connection between a user's client device and the content management system is below a threshold connectivity, and then simulate an online experience for the user despite the poor connection.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for providing content management features in a messaging service. A messaging client receives a reference to a content item stored on a content management system and receives, from the content management system, a set of sharing options for the content item. The set of sharing options is presented to the user via the messaging client and a user selection of sharing options is received. The messaging client sends the user selection of sharing options to the content management system, wherein the content management system is configured to apply the user selection of sharing options to the content item.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for creating shared virtual spaces (“rooms”). A room may be created when a user first shares images with another user. A user may send a request to a content management system to share one or more images with various contacts. In response, a room is created by the content management system in which a copy of each image is stored. Images added to a room are copied to a separate “rooms” database, and “locked,” being saved in the room for a period of time, which may be indefinitely. Changes made by the user to a room via a user device may be displayed as soon as indicated, without waiting for the information to be sent to a system server or its state to be made consistent with that of the user device. Room activity notifications may be sent to members in various ways.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology enable users to sign in to an account without a password. For example, when receiving a request to register a device with an account, a user can be prompted to enter their email address. In response, two tokens are generated. A first token is sent to the a client application on the device and the second token is sent to the user's email. The user can then only login to their account with the device if the device has both tokens. Thus, if someone intercepts the email, they will be unable to login from another device since they don't have the first token. If the client token and email token cannot be automatically joined on the same device, a web page showing a code can be displayed on a first device, which can be entered on the second device to finish login process.

Abstract translation: 本技术的各种实施例使得用户能够登录到没有密码的帐户。 例如，当接收到注册具有帐户的设备的请求时，可以提示用户输入他们的电子邮件地址。 作为响应，生成两个令牌。 第一个令牌被发送到设备上的客户端应用程序，第二个令牌被发送到用户的电子邮件。 如果设备有两个令牌，用户只能使用设备登录到他们的帐户。 因此，如果有人拦截电子邮件，他们将无法从另一台设备登录，因为他们没有第一个令牌。 如果客户端令牌和电子邮件令牌不能自动加入同一设备，则可以在第一个设备上显示一个显示代码的网页，该设备可以在第二个设备上输入以完成登录过程。

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for ephemeral eventing. Ephemeral eventing may involve sending metadata portions associated with content items from a user device to a content management system prior to uploading the content portions of the content items. The content management system may then assign the content items to one or more events. The event assignments may then be sent back to the user device, allowing the content items to be locally displayed according to their events as if the content items had already been uploaded to the content management system.

Abstract translation: 为临时事件提供实施例。 临时事件可能涉及在上载内容项目的内容部分之前，将与内容项目相关联的元数据部分从用户设备发送到内容管理系统。 然后，内容管理系统可以将内容项目分配给一个或多个事件。 然后可以将事件分配发送回用户设备，允许内容项目根据其事件本地显示，就像内容项目已经被上传到内容管理系统一样。
