    Abstract: The present technology addresses a scenario when a user attempts to create a cloud content item using a file system interface on a client device. The present technology can immediately create a content item that is representative of a cloud content item once the user requests a cloud content item to be created. The content item that is representative of the cloud content item can be created even before the cloud content item itself is created. After the cloud content item is created, the present technology provides a mechanism to relate the content item that this representative of the cloud content item with the actual cloud content item.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, a client application at a client device can receive, from a browser application at the client device, a first message including a unique identifier associated with a session of the browser application at a website associated with a content management system. The client application can extract the unique identifier from the first message, and establish a connection between the client application and the content management system by sending, from the client application to the content management system, a second message including the unique identifier. The client application can then receive, from the content management system through the connection, a third message relayed by the content management system from the website, where the third message is associated with the unique identifier.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for integrating cloud-based and cloud-backed content items with a content management system are provided. In some examples, a method can include receiving a request to open a cloud-backed content item at a first client device using a native application associated with the cloud-backed content item; detecting that the content item is open at a second client device from a cloud-based application that supports live collaboration for the cloud-backed content item; and directing the first client device to an instance of the cloud-based application at the first client device.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for integrating cloud-based and cloud-backed content items with a content management system are provided. In some examples, a method can include receiving a request to access a smart pointer on a content management system, the smart pointer including a representation of a content item on a cloud provider, wherein content and features of the content item are accessible through an online application associated with the cloud provider, the content item comprising a cloud-based or cloud-backed content item. The method can include, in response to the smart pointer being invoked, sending, from a cloud integration element of an application to the cloud provider, a request for the content of the content item; receiving, at the cloud integration element, from the cloud provider, the content of the content item; and presenting, at the application, the content as part of a rendered instance of the smart pointer.

    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.
