Creating conversations in shared folder backed integrated workspaces
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- generating, by an online content management system, a shared-folder backed workspace graphical user interface that provides an integrated environment for manipulating content items in an online shared folder of the online content management system and communicating with authorized users of the online shared folder, wherein the workspace interface includes representations of content items in the online shared folder and a message stream including workspace messages generated by the authorized users of the online shared folder, and wherein the same content items are presented to each of the authorized users of the online shared folder;
receiving, by the online content management system from a first user among the authorized users, a first message indicating a selection of a content item represented on the workspace graphical user interface;
in response to receiving the first message, generating, by the online content management system, an options graphical user interface that includes an option to discuss the particular content item;
receiving, by the online content management system from the first user, a second message indicating that the discuss option has been selected; and
in response to receiving the second message, generating, by the online content management system, a new workspace message from the first user including a link to the particular content item and inserting the new workspace message in the workspace message stream, wherein the link and new workspace message are presented to each of the authorized users of the online shared folder.

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.
