Abstract: A sharing user of a content management system can request to share a content item in his namespace. When such a request is made, the sharing user's client device broadcasts a notification that can be received by devices that are within a limited broadcast range of the sharing client device. A receiving user's client device that is within the limited broadcast range of the sharing client device receives the broadcasted notification. Based on the notification, the receiving client device obtains a token from the sharing client device that identifies the content item being shared by the sharing user. At the request of the receiving user, the receiving client device transmits the token to the content management system and requests that the content management system add the shared content item to the receiving user's namespace with the system. The receiving user can then access the item from his namespace.

Abstract translation: 内容管理系统的共享用户可以请求在其命名空间中共享内容项。 当进行这样的请求时，共享用户的客户端设备广播可以由共享客户端设备的有限的广播范围内的设备接收的通知。 在共享客户端设备的受限广播范围内的接收用户的客户端设备接收广播的通知。 基于通知，接收客户端设备从共享客户端设备获取标识由共享用户共享的内容项的令牌。 在接收用户的请求下，接收客户端设备将该令牌发送到内容管理系统，并请求内容管理系统将该共享内容项目与该系统一起添加到接收用户的命名空间。 然后，接收用户可以从他的命名空间中访问该项目。

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods of accessing content items stored at a content management system by a mobile device, when the mobile device is not communicatively coupled to the content management system. The content management system can receive an indication to mark a content item (e.g., folder and the content items associated with the folder) as available to a mobile device when the mobile device is offline. The content management system can mark the content item, and any content items associated with the content item, for offline access by the mobile device and determine a synchronization schedule for the content item(s). The content management system can then initially send to the mobile device, the marked content item(s) in accordance with the synchronization schedule. While offline, the mobile device can make changes to the marked content items. The changes can be synchronized between the mobile device and content management system when the mobile device is online.
