    摘要: Internet communications between a content management system that stores a plurality of content objects and a third-party system is established. A hierarchy at the third-party system is determined, and a file and folder content object hierarchy at the content management system is generated based on the determined hierarchy at the third-party system. Users of the content management system and users of the third-party system are reconciled by comparing attributes of users of the third-party system with attributes of users of the content management system. Permissions pertaining to user accessed to content objects at the content management system are reconciled with permissions of the third-party system. Reconciled access permissions are applied to content objects of the generated hierarchy at the content management system. Some of the access permissions that are applied to the content object hierarchy of the content management system are more restrictive than the permissions of the third-party system.

    摘要: A user interface is configured to present a stream of activities that arise from operation of two or more heterogeneous applications that access shared content objects of a content management system. A first application of a first type among the heterogeneous applications interoperates with a second application of a second type. Application activity records that correspond to interactions by the second application over the shared content objects are stored. Additional interactions that are raised by the first application and that pertain to a common content object are also stored. When a user requests access to a content object of the content management system, recent application activity records are selected. Some of the selected activity records are filtered out based on permissions attributes corresponding to the content object and/or based on permissions attributes corresponding to the requesting user. An application activity stream is generated based on the selected application activity records.

    摘要: Methods, systems and computer program products for extensible content object workflows. A content management system stores a plurality of content objects. The content management system integrates applications, which integrated applications make modifications to the content objects based on computer-aided invocation of workflows. Upon receipt of a message from a first integrated application indicating an intent to invoke a workflow at a second integrated application, the content management system relays information pertaining to the desired workflow to the second integrated application. The workflow of the second integrated application modifies one or more of the content objects or its metadata or other data associated with the workflow. Selection of the second integrated application can be based on attributes of the content objects, and/or can be based on user interactions within a user interface. Interaction events associated with the workflow performed at the second integrated application are relayed back to the originating application.
