    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing reminders in a content management system. For example, a user can select content (e.g., a content item, content within a content item, metadata for a content item, etc.) and provide input to cause the content management system to generate a reminder related to the content. The reminder data can be generated automatically. The reminder can be generated based on user input defining attributes of the reminder. Based on a due date associated with the reminder, the content management system can cause a notification to be presented to the user so that the user can be reminded to perform a task related to the selected item of content. The user can select a representation of the reminder to cause the content management system to present the item of content associated with the reminder.

    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to managing content item collections. A collection management system receives a request for collection item metadata associated with a collection item. Collection management system obtains a content item identifier corresponding to the collection item identifier. Collection management system requests content item metadata from a content management system. Collection management system receives from the content management system content item metadata corresponding to the content item identifier. Collection management system filters the content item metadata to remove a portion of the content item metadata comprising privileged information. Collection management system retrieves collection item metadata using the collection item identifier. Collection management system adds the filtered content item metadata to the collection item metadata. Collection management system sends to the client device the collection item metadata for the content item to be displayed, without sending the portion of the metadata comprising privileged information.

    Abstract: A collaborative content management system receives, from a client device having access to an account associated with the collaborative content management system, a request for versions of a collaborative document managed by the collaborative content management system. The collaborative content management system accesses a set of versions of the collaborative document. The set of versions includes at least one offline version. The at least one offline version was created on a client device having access to the collaborative document while the client device was disconnected from the collaborative content management system and synchronized to the collaborative content management system when the client device is connected to the collaborative content management system. The collaborative content management system generates a user interface providing the set of versions.

    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: A content management system including a document management system provides documents that include comments entered by users. Comments are organized into threads; each thread is associated with a span of text in the document. When a user requests access to a document, the document management system determines which threads are visible to the user based on an audience associated with each thread. The audience comprises the user identifiers of i) the author of the document containing the thread; ii) the authors of comments included in the thread; iii) the authors of any text included in the text span for the thread; iv) any user mentioned in the text span the thread via a user primitive; v) any user mentioned in a comment via user primitive.

    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.
