Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing project tasks using content items. A user can create tasks within a content item. The tasks can be assigned to users and/or be assigned due dates. The content item can be shared with other users such that updates to the content item (e.g., updates to the tasks) can cause sending notifications to users associated with the content item. When a task in the content item is updated, all members of the project can be notified of the updated status of the task. A task list for a project can be created that aggregates tasks from multiple content items associated with the project. Tasks can be organized in the task list according to the content item the task was created in. Updates to tasks in the task list can cause corresponding updates to the tasks in the content items.

Abstract: Inline content item editor commands are provided. An implementation allows a user to initiate various functions related to a content item being edited by entering a command expression inline with the content of the content item being edited. The manner of editor function initiation saves the user time and effort and reduces cognitive burden on the user because it does not require the user to change input modes (e.g., from keyboard to mouse) or change input areas (e.g., from a content item editing area to a distant toolbar or context menu) in order to initiate the function and, if applicable, provide parameters to the function.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing projects using references between the project and project items. Project items can be, for example, synchronized content items, collaborative content items, other projects, folders, tasks, user accounts, etc. The content management system can create a project identifier for managing data and/or people associated with a project. In various implementations, the content management system can store references between the project and project items in one or more folders associated with the project, in a database, in content item metadata, etc. In some implementations, the storage location of a content item does not affect whether it is associated with the project. When a project is selected by a user, the content management system can generate project view that presents various project items associated with the project in a convenient and easy to access graphical user interface.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to obtain external credentials for a user account external to a content management system, wherein the external credentials are associated with a content item stored on the content management system. The system receives, from a client device, a client request for data associated with the external user account and transmits, to an external source, a proxy-request for the data associated with the external user account, wherein the proxy-request comprises the external credentials. The system further receives the data associated with the external account and transmits the data associated with the external account to the client device.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a system configured to receive, from a first client device, application data generated from the execution, by the first client device, of third-party application code embedded within a content item managed by a content management system, wherein the first client device is associated with a first user account of the content management system. The system is further configured to store, at the content management system, the application data as metadata associated with the content item and transmit, based on the received application data, a notification to a second client device associated with a second user account of the content management system with access to the content item.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for providing an embedded web view of a folder in a content management system on a web page. For example, a user can request from a content management system code for embedding a web view of a content item or group of content items (e.g., folder) into a web page. After the code is embedded into the webpage, the web page can present a web view of the content item or group of content items that is dynamically updated when the content item or group of content items is updated. Thus, the user is relieved of the burden of updating the web page with new links to reflect changes in content items stored in the online content management system.
