    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for a content management system. Embodiments operate within or in conjunction with such a content management system. The content management system stores content objects for access by various collaborators, including extra-system collaborators. A user of the content management system configures extra-enterprise shared link URLs that permit the extra-system collaborators to access shared content objects over an Internet connection. A shared link event graph data structure is formed based on access requests over the extra-enterprise shared link URLs. An interactive user interface module is generated by processing a shared link report query over the shared link event graph data structure to select a subject set of the extra-enterprise shared link URLs, and to generate a data set of the interactive user interface module based at least in part on results from the query. A user interacts with the interactive user interface module to generate insights.

    Abstract: A shared workflow operates over a plurality of execution environments associated with a content management system. A shared workflow is created in a first execution environment. The workflow is posted to a shared location. A particular workflow is selected from an exchange or other shared location and is thereafter configured to execute in a second execution environment. A computing module analyzes the workflow to identify environment-specific parameters. Based on a computer-generated recommendation emerging from the analysis, a user or a computing agent modifies the environment-specific parameter so as to configure the workflow prior to execution in the second execution environment. The first execution environment may correspond to a first department of an enterprise and the second execution environment may correspond to a second department of the same enterprise. Alternatively, the first execution environment may correspond to a first enterprise and the second execution environment may correspond to a second enterprise.

    Abstract: Content object operations over content objects of a content management system are prioritized to be performed immediately, or at a later time. The immediate scheduling of an operation is determined by policies, rules, and/or predictive model outcomes. The determination for later time scheduling is based on analysis of a history of events on content objects. If the content object operation is deemed to be at least potentially delayable to a later time, then a scheduling model is consulted to determine an urgency of performing the content object operation on the content object. The urgency value resulting from consulting the scheduling model is combined with then-current resource availability to determine a timeframe for performance of the content object operation on the content object relative to other entries in a continuously updated list of to-be-performed operations. The performance of the content object operation on the content object is initiated in due course.

    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for recommendation systems. Embodiments commence by gathering a set of pathnames that refer to content objects of a collaboration system. A tokenizer converts at least some of the pathnames into vectors. The vectors comprise hierarchical path components such as folder names or file names, which vectors are labeled with an indication as to whether or not the folder or file referred to in a particular vector had been clicked on by one or more users. Some portion of the labeled vectors are used to train a predictive model. Collaboration recommendations may be generated that pertain to security-related recommendations.

    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to association of storage objects in a multi-tenant, cloud-based storage environment. More specifically, a first object can be made available in the file system of the environment and can be accessed, for example, by its file or object name. At some point thereafter, an auxiliary object can be provided that is related to the first object. For example, this auxiliary object can comprise metadata or other content associated with or related to the first object. According to one embodiment, this auxiliary object can be assigned an identifier that not only uniquely identifies the auxiliary object but also identifies, within the identifier itself, the relationship to the first object. This relational naming can be used to track the relationship between objects, e.g., to update the auxiliary object based on changes to the first object, but without a separate mapping of the objects.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products. A virtual canvas is presented in an active area of an online meeting facility that renders participant-specific online virtual canvas interactions raised by a respective plurality of users' devices. Users can see and hear each other's interactions during an virtual canvas session. Annotations include drawings, content object edits, voice annotations, etc. that correspond to a displayed portion of a content object of a content management system (CMS). Based on the interactions and/or inferences made based on those interactions, the virtual canvas system generates commands to be executed by the content management system. Characteristics of interactions between users can be enriched by drawing information from the content management system and using such information in combination with the interactions themselves. The CMS can recommend teams, and action items, and the CMS can provide hints to participants, so as to facilitate more effective engagement between the participants.
