    Abstract: The disclosed technology provides for creating and displaying referential gestures in a content item. In some instances many words may be required to clearly describe a point that can be made in few words by referencing visual media. The present technology provides a method for associating a referential gesture to a text string and a particular location in a visual media item.

    Abstract: A content management system receives presence information from a client application on a device indicating interaction information of a user relative to a content item synchronized to the content management system. The interaction information includes presence information describing presence information of a native application interacting with the content item. The presence information indicates whether the native application opened, is viewing, or is editing the content item. The presence information may specify a user interface element and process associated with the presence information. The content management system stores presence records describing the presence information and uses the presence records to generate and transmit a presence status associated with a user. When a new version of a content item is received, the content management system may also use the presence records to determine an action to perform with the user interface window associated with the prior version.

    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to receive a request to capture active application content of a client application running on a client device and generate, based on raw digital data from the client application, an object structure representing the active application content of the client application. The object structure comprises application data including information about the client application, content data including information about the active application content, and a data block including at least a portion of the raw digital data from the active application content. The system may further store the object structure representing the active application content on the client device.

    Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to initialize, based on an initial file state, a client synchronization service configured to generate a final file state by performing a synchronization process on the initial file state. The system may further introduce at least one anomaly into the synchronization process, determine that the final file state is incorrectly synchronized, and store the initial file state for debugging the client synchronization service.

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that facilitates searching an online content management system for content items associated with a user. During operation, the system receives a call from a client application at a search interface in the online content management system, wherein the client application is operating on behalf of the user. In response to the call, the system performs a lookup in a per-user index within the online content management system, wherein the per-user index facilitates looking up information about content items associated with the user in the online content management system. The system then returns the information obtained during the lookup to the client application. The client application can then use the retrieved information to facilitate an interaction between the client application and the user.

    Abstract: One or more embodiments of a video editing system enable one or more users to conveniently edit a digital video. In particular, an online content management system can provide a low resolution version of a digital video to a client device. A user can interact with the low resolution digital video and generate user edits to apply to the digital video. The online content management system can further apply any number of users edits to low and high resolution versions of the digital video at a server device. The video editing system enables users to more conveniently apply iterative edits to digital videos. Additionally, the video editing system enables multiple users to cooperatively edit a digital video from multiple client devices.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for identifying accounts having shared credentials. In some implementations, a content management system can collect user login context data when a user logs in to or accesses a user account of the content management system. For example, the content management system can collect client device data, client application data, internet protocol (IP) address data, and/or other data from the user's device when the user logs in to the user account. The content management system can analyze the login context data to determine patterns that indicate that the user account login credentials are being shared among multiple users.

    Abstract: A client service, such as a plug-in to a browser, can alter a document retrieved from a compatible service to augment the document with services from an online content management service. When an application retrieves a compatible document, the client service can detect a document element within the document and alter the document to provide an activatable reference to the online content management service. For example, a client service can recognize an email composition webpage or an email display webpage and insert activatable references provide services from the online content management service. In email composition webpages, a reference can be a button that allows an email author to insert a link to a content item from the online content management service. In email display webpages, references can be added that allow attachments to be sent to the online content management service for storage.
