Abstract: A content management system implementing methodologies providing retroactive shared content item links is disclosed. The content management system and methodologies allow a team administrator of a team to configure a team-wide shared link policy that determines whether non-team members can access content items associated with team accounts using shared links generated for the content items by team members. The team shared link policy has two settings. In a first setting, the content management system allows non-team members to use shared links generated by team members to access content items associated with team accounts. In a second setting, the content management system blocks access to the content items by non-team members. Shared links are retroactive in the sense they do not need to be regenerated after the team shared link policy has been changed from the second setting back to the first setting.

Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling administrators of teams that use a particular service to specify which sign-on options, of multiple possible sign-on options, are assigned to the members of the teams to which the administrators belong. For example, an administrator may assign a first sign-on option, which only allows users to use native authentication, to one set of members of the team. At the same time, the administrator may assign a second sign-on option, which only allows users to use third-party single-sign-on authentication, to another set of members of the same team.

Abstract: A content item sharing and synchronization system providing team shared folders is described. Users of the system have access to the team shared folder simply by being a member of a team. A team account manager of the team can grant access to the team shared folder simply by inviting selected users to the team. Similarly, the team account manager can revoke access to the team shared folder simply by removing a user from the team. Unlike typical network file server folders, separate access control list management for the team shared folder apart from user team membership management is not needed to grant and revoke access to the team shared folder, thereby reducing administrative steps necessary to effectively manage access to the team shared folder.

Abstract translation: 描述提供团队共享文件夹的内容项共享和同步系统。 系统的用户只需通过成为团队成员即可访问团队共享文件夹。 团队的团队客户经理只需通过邀请所选用户到团队即可授予对团队共享文件夹的访问权限。 同样，团队客户经理可以通过从团队中删除用户来撤销对团队共享文件夹的访问。 与典型的网络文件服务器文件夹不同，不需要单独的用户团队成员资格管理的团队共享文件夹的访问控制列表管理来授予和撤消对团队共享文件夹的访问权限，从而减少管理步骤，以有效地管理对团队共享的访问 夹。

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for managing unsynchronized content items when the personal computing devices storing the unsynchronized content items are unlinked from a content item synchronization service. The techniques involve treating synchronized content items differently from unsynchronized content items. For example, after a personal computing is unlinked from the service, synchronized content items may be removed or deleted from the personal computing device and unsynchronized content items encrypted and/or moved to another data storage location.

Abstract translation: 公开了提供追溯共享内容项目链接的实现方法的内容管理系统。 内容管理系统和方法允许团队的团队管理员配置团队范围的共享链接策略，以确定非团队成员是否可以使用由团队成员为内容项生成的共享链接来访问与小组帐户相关联的内容项。 团队共享链接策略有两个设置。 在第一个设置中，内容管理系统允许非团队成员使用团队成员生成的共享链接来访问与小组帐户关联的内容项。 在第二个设置中，内容管理系统阻止非团队成员对内容项的访问。 在团队共享链接策略从第二个设置更改为第一个设置后，共享链接在后台不需要重新生成。
