Abstract:
A sharing extension point receives a request from a host application for sharing content, the sharing extension point being one of the extension points of an extension framework of an operating system, each corresponding to a common interface to extend a predefined functionality of one application to another application. In response, a sharing extension capable of providing content sharing services is launched. Data representing a share sheet created by the sharing extension is injected into a content viewer within the host application as a share sheet clone, where the share sheet clone has a reduced resolution image of the content displayed therein. In response to receiving a commit command for sharing, the actual content is retrieved from the host application and the retrieved content is transmitted to the sharing extension to enable the sharing extension to post the share sheet on a sharing platform.

Abstract:
This application relates to a technique that enables a software application to perform an operation on a file stored on a file system, while enforcing privacy measures. The technique includes receiving, from a file browser, a selection of file made accessible by a file access service. The file access service is associated with the file system storing the file. The file browser executes in a mode that prevents the software application from identifying content displayed within the file browser. The technique also includes, provided the software application is authorized to access the file, communicating a first list of operations for receipt by the software application, in which the software application selects a first subset of operations, to perform on the file. Furthermore, the technique includes establishing, to perform the first subset of operations on the file, a first direct communication link between the software application and the file access service.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus of a device that downloads an object from a cloud service provider is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device receives a download request for the object from a process running on a device. The device further determines a priority hint associated with the process for the download request. In addition, the device starts a download process using the download request and the priority hint. Furthermore, the device determines a change in the priority hint of the process during the download. The device additionally changes a characteristic of the download process in response to the change in the priority hint. The device further stores the object.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus of a device that suggests a tokenized query completion for an input query prefix is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device receives a query prefix from a client, wherein the query prefix includes a plurality of words. The device further generates a results set by searching a structured database using the query prefix for matches to the plurality of words in the query prefix. The device additionally determines a subset of query prefix that match specific fields of the results set by using the last N grams in the query prefix. In addition, the device ranks a tokenized query completion as a search suggestion using the query prefix, where the tokenized query completion includes a token that is a match between a matching word in the subset of query prefix and the corresponding specific field for the matching word.

A sharing extension point receives a request from a host application for sharing content, the sharing extension point being one of the extension points of an extension framework of an operating system, each corresponding to a common interface to extend a predefined functionality of one application to another application. In response, a sharing extension capable of providing content sharing services is launched. Data representing a share sheet created by the sharing extension is injected into a content viewer within the host application as a share sheet done, where the share sheet done has a reduced resolution image of the content displayed therein. In response to receiving a commit command for sharing, the actual content is retrieved from the host application and the retrieved content is transmitted to the sharing extension to enable the sharing extension to post the share sheet on a sharing platform.
