A first electronic device with a display maintains a consistent output based on concurrent textual edits received at multiple collaborating devices. The first device maintains a directed acyclic graph to represent a textual string concurrently edited by the first device and at least a second device of the multiple collaborating devices. The directed acyclic graph includes: a plurality of nodes each representing a respective character input received from one or more of the multiple collaborating devices, and multiple parallel paths each including at least one node that represents a respective one of multiple concurrent character inputs received from distinct devices of the multiple collaborating devices. The first device topologically traverses the directed acyclic graph in accordance with a predetermined ordering rule to deterministically sort the plurality of nodes into a string sequence. The first device displays the textual string in accordance with the deterministically obtained string sequence.

Device, Method, and Graphical User Interface for Collaborative Editing in Documents

A system can selectively synchronize content based on synchronization settings. In some examples, a client stores a local tree representing a local set of content items associated with an account on a content management system, the local tree including respective local nodes corresponding to the local set of content items. The client stores a remote tree representing a remote set of content items associated with the account, the remote set being stored at the content management system and including respective remote nodes corresponding to the remote set of content items. The client receives a synchronization setting disabling local storage of the content item. In response, the client deletes a local copy of the content item, removes a corresponding local node from the local tree, and adds, to a remote node on the remote tree, an attribute indicating that local storage of the content item has been disabled.

Selective synchronization of content items in a content management system

A client can allocate and reassociate unique identifiers to local content items associated with an account at a content management system, and use the unique identifiers to commit operations for the content items on the content management system. For example, a client can create a content item and determine the content item does not have an identifier from the content management system. The client obtains an identifier for the content item and asks the content management system to verify a uniqueness of the identifier. When the identifier is unique, the client adds a node corresponding to the content item to a local tree representing a state at the client of content items associated with the account, and uploads the content item with the identifier to the content management system. When the identifier is not unique, the client obtains a new identifier for the content item.

Allocation and reassignment of unique identifiers for synchronization of content items

A system and methods for sharing data among multiple standalone applications include: receiving, by a framework executing on a computing device, at least one keyword based upon a user input on a display of one of a plurality of standalone applications loaded via the framework; and storing the at least one in a context object, wherein the context object is accessible by each of the plurality of standalone applications for sharing the at least one keyword. One or more operations may be further performed based on the shared context object and results including content related or matching with the context object may be gathered from multiple standalone applications loaded in the framework.

Systems and Methods for Sharing Context Among Standalone Applications

An interface of a content management system manages storage and access of content on the system. For example, after receiving, from a client, a request to download a content item, the interface determines whether the request includes a valid token. If so, the interface sends a content item request to a storage service, retrieves the content item, and sends the content item to the client. Otherwise, the interface sends an authorization request to an authorization service, an authentication request to an authentication service, and a content item request to the storage service. Based on the requests, the interface determines whether the content item is available in storage and whether the client is authorized to access the content item. When the content item is available in storage and the client is authorized to access the content item, the interface retrieves the content item and sends the content item to the client.

Storage interface for synchronizing content

A computing device includes a processor that carries out actions comprising: storing a causal tree structure corresponding to a document, where the causal tree structure includes a sequence of editing instructions and each editing instruction is assigned an identifier unique to such editing instruction. The method further includes receiving a user editing instruction for the document, where the user editing instruction is assigned an identifier unique to the user editing instruction. The method includes storing the user editing instruction and the identifier assigned to the user editing instruction as an additional node to the causal tree structure. The method further includes broadcasting, to a plurality of client devices, the user editing instruction and the identifier assigned to the user editing instruction.
