    摘要: In some embodiments, a client application at a computing device can receive a request to generate a digital focus area based on input criteria. In response to the request, the client application can search a local storage and/or a remote storage for content related to the input criteria to yield a content collection, the remote storage being associated with a user account registered at a content management system. The client application can generate a workspace for the digital focus area, the workspace containing selected content from the content collection. The client application can pin, to a desktop displayed on the computing device, an interface object associated with the digital focus area, the interface object providing access to the workspace. The client application can then monitor events associated with the input criteria, and update the digital focus area based on one or more of the events associated with the input criteria.

    摘要: A content management system for collecting files from one or more authenticated submitters in a collection folder. A collector, who generates the collection folder, can invite one or more submitters to submit one or more files to the collection folder. The one or more submitters have limited rights to the collection folder. The limited rights can include uploading rights and prohibiting a submitter from viewing files that other submitters associated with the collection folder submitted. Thus, the collection folder is able to store files from the one or more submitters, but prevent them from viewing other's submissions.

    摘要: Shared content items are migrated between accounts on a content management system. Users store content items synchronized between one or more client devices and the content management system. A user may have multiple accounts including personal and organization accounts. Content items may be shared with accounts belonging to other users to enable those other users to view or manipulate the content items. A user initiates a migration of content items between accounts of different categories via a user interface, e.g., by dragging and dropping a folder from one account to another. The content management system recognizes that the user has deleted the folder from the user's first account and determines that an identical folder has been created in another account belonging to the same user. In response the content management system joins the second account to the shared folder, and removes the first account from the shared folder.

    摘要: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for implementing mixed collaboration teams. In some embodiments, a user of a content management system can create a team account within the content management system. The team account can be allocated resources of the content management system that allow team members to collaborate on content items (e.g., files, documents, etc.) managed by the content management system. The team can be allocated licenses to use the resources and the licenses can be allocated to team members. The team can be a mixed team including licensed and unlicensed members. Licensed members can have a higher level of access to the team resources than unlicensed members. The team administrator can manage licenses allocated to team members. The team administrator can have different privileges with respect to licensed and unlicensed team members.
