Abstract:
Providing a user with an interactive user interface that may fully enable interactions regardless of connectivity status may be provided. In some embodiments, one or more content items may be selected by a user of the user devices and may be queued for upload to a content management system. The content items may be organized into one or more collections of content items with other content items already stored in a user account on the content management system, such as images having similar geo-temporal characteristics. A set of interactivity features may be available to the user for interacting with the queued content item. This may provide the user with the seamless feeling as if the content items have been uploaded to the content management system and the user may be interacting with the content items on the content management system, even if the upload has not been completed.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing content across discrete systems. A content management system can be implemented to manage content items and synchronize content items across devices. A content collaboration system can be implemented to generate documents and facilitate collaboration on documents. To take advantage of the content management system's functionality to manage and synchronize content items while also providing the collaboration functionality of the content collaboration system, the content management system can store and manage references to documents created in the content collaboration system. The document references can be managed by the content management system such that the document references appear to users as if the document references were the referenced document in the collaboration system.

Abstract:
Embodiments are also provided for displaying an image capturing mode and a content viewing mode. In some embodiments, one or more live images may be received from an image capturing component on a mobile device. A user interface may display the live images on a touch-sensing display interface of the mobile device. A first gesture may also be detected with the touch-sensing display interface. In response to detecting the first gesture, at least a portion of a collection of content items may be displayed within a first region of the user interface, and/or the one or more live images may be displayed within a second region of the user interface.
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:
A user device has a processing module and a UI module. The processing module may have a permanent connection to the UI module, and an intermittent connection to a content management system over a data network. User requested actions are executed within the UI module. For each such action, a parallel request is sent to the content management system when network connectivity allows. Results of the user requested actions are presented within the UI module as if they had been implemented on the content management system. The user may thus interact with content as if all user requested actions have occurred substantially simultaneously with the request. When network connectivity allows, confirmation is received in the processing module from the content management system that the actions have been implemented, and the state of the user requested actions in the UI module is matched with that on the content management system.

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 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.
