Shared folder backed integrated workspaces
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- generating, by a content management system, a workspace graphical user interface representing a shared folder backed workspace that provides an integrated environment for manipulating content items in the shared folder and communicating with the authorized users of the shared folder, the workspace interface including representations of content items stored in the shared folder and a message stream that includes messages generated by the authorized users of the shared folder;
assigning a workspace email address to the shared folder;
obtaining, by the content management system, an email message addressed to the workspace email address from an email service of an authorized user of the workspace;
generating, by the content management system, a new workspace message based on the email message addressed to the workspace email address; and
posting the new workspace message in the message stream, wherein the new workspace message is available to each authorized user of the shared folder in the message stream.

Abstract
Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for shared folder backed integrated workspaces. In some implementations, a content management system can provide a graphical user interface (GUI) that integrates communications and content management into a single user interface. The user interface can include mechanisms that allow a user to provide input to generate a new workspace. The user interface can provide a mechanism to allow a user to view conversations related to the workspace and/or content items associated with the workspace. The user interface can present representations of content items associated with the workspace and allow the user to provide input to generate, view, edit, and share content items associated with the workspace.

15. A content management system comprising:
-
one or more processors; and a computer-readable medium including one or more sequences of instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause; generating, by a content management system, a workspace graphical user interface representing a shared folder backed workspace that provides an integrated environment for manipulating content items in the shared folder and communicating with the authorized users of the shared folder, the workspace interface including representations of content items stored in the shared folder and a message stream that includes messages generated by the authorized users of the shared folder; obtaining, by the content management system, an email message from an email service of an authorized user of the workspace, the email message associated with a workspace email address corresponding to the online shared folder; and generating, by the content management system, a new workspace message based on the email message addressed to the workspace email address; and posting the new workspace message in the message stream, wherein the new workspace message is available to each authorized user of the shared folder in the message stream. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
