Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for generating and managing multilocational data blocks, generating and summarizing content blocks within a virtual space interface, and generating and providing a content block browser as part of a virtual space platform. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems generate a multilocational data block that includes a block identifier that is tied to a source identifier for embedding digital content from a network location indicated by the source identifier. The disclosed systems can also generate block summaries from content blocks for presenting and modifying digital content embedded within the content blocks via block identifiers and source identifiers. In some embodiments, the content block system can provide a content-block-based web browser in the form of a virtual space that includes embedded content blocks that integrate webpage functionality.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that utilize machine learning models to generate identifier embeddings from digital content identifiers and then leverage these identifier embeddings to determine digital connections between digital content items. In particular, the disclosed systems can utilize an embedding machine-learning model that comprises a character-level embedding machine-learning model and a word-level embedding machine-learning model. For example, the disclosed systems can combine a character embedding from the character-level embedding machine-learning model and a token embedding from the word-level embedding machine-learning model. The disclosed systems can determine digital connections between the plurality of digital content items by processing these identifier embeddings for a plurality of digital content items utilizing a content management model. Based on the digital connections, the disclosed systems can surface one or more digital content suggestions to a user interface of a client device.

Abstract: A collaborative content management system (CMS) is disclosed herein for processing electronic signature data in a collaborative environment and performing actions based on the received data. The CMS may receive a selection of a content item to be electronically signed by one or more users. Upon receipt of the selection, the CMS may generate a fillable form and send the fillable form to be electronically filled out signed. When each user fills out and signs the form, the CMS may receive that form data and aggregate the form data with previously received form data. The CMS may determine whether the aggregated form data meets one or more conditions stored within the CMS and perform appropriate actions based on one or more conditions that are met.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for initiating, monitoring, and performing data backups from remote devices using web-based applications. For example, the disclosed systems receive a backup request from a remote device running a web-based application that does not include backup functionality, where the backup request triggers a data backup for data stored locally on a different client device. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems can establish a connection between the remote web-based application and a desktop application installed locally on the device to be backed up, where the connection facilitates triggering and managing a data backup executed by the desktop application via the remote web-based application. In some cases, the disclosed systems determine whether data backups are synchronous, asynchronous, and/or for user accounts within a team, and the disclosed systems facilitate data backups accordingly.

Abstract: A system and method for protecting information managed by a content management system are disclosed herein. A first server of the content management system receives a request from a user or service to access a data item managed by the content management system. The first server determines a data type associated with the requested data item. The first server accesses a access control list to determine whether the user or service has permission to access data associated with the data type. The first server processes the request, based on a determination that the user or service has permissions to access data associated with the data type.

Abstract: A consistency verification system that verifies data consistency in a content item management system. The system processes a write request. The write request includes a set of preconditions, a key, and data to write in a write operation. Processing the write request includes determining that the set of conditions are met, committing the write request at a commit time, and assigning a timestamp indicating the commit time to the write request. The system verifies data consistency associated with the write request. The verifying data consistency includes sending a replay request corresponding to the write request. The system determines whether results of the replay are consistent with results of the write request. Responsive to determining whether results of the replay are consistent with results of the write request, the system outputs information describing data inconsistency.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for identifying and recommending team members for target users from a content management system utilizing a machine learning approach. In particular, the disclosed systems can generate a set of candidate team members from among users of the content management system based on various factors such as access to a common digital content item. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems further determine recommended team members from among the set of candidate team members. For example, the disclosed systems can utilize a machine learning approach to generate or predict recommended team members based on particular features extracted or determined for, or with respect to, the various candidate team members. In certain implementations, the disclosed systems further provide a recommended-team-member notification to notify a target user of a recommended team member.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to initiating and then sharing a capture session. According to at least one example, the present technology includes receiving, from a first device, a request to initiate a shared capture session. In response, the first device launches a capture session that receives audio, video, and screen data from the first device. The first device can then share the capture session with another user, via a link. After a second user selects the link at a second device, audio and video data from the second device are added to the capture session. The capture session aggregates and captures the audio, video, and screen data from both devices. After the capture session ends, a captured media object from the capture session can be stored at the first device, and sent to the second device, and the content management system.

Abstract: The present technology is directed to providing a multi-root architecture for managing devices associated with their own root namespaces. The system can include backing up multiple computing devices to a single user account such that the content items from each computing device are stored in their own respective root namespace at the user account. With each user account having multiple root namespaces, the system can identify which root namespace is receiving changes, identify which changes are necessary to synchronize the system, and then communicate those changes to the content management system. This process is facilitated by running a synchronization engine for each root namespace, thereby controlling synchronization for each root namespace. Each synchronization engine is able to retain its own parameters of operation, which provides the ability to tailor synchronization modes on each synchronization engine.
