Sharing dynamically changing units of cloud-based content

A computer readable medium, embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, the non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions which, when stored in memory and executed by one or more processors causes the one or more processors to perform a set of acts, the set of acts comprising:

• assigning individual ones of the shared content objects to have individual permissions grantable to one or more users of a cloud-based storage system;
• receiving one or more shareable unit attributes describing a shareable unit, the shareable unit comprising one or more constituent content objects stored on one or more storage devices in the cloud-based storage system, the one or more constituent content objects corresponding to constituent images organized in a particular order for viewing the shareable unit by the one or more users;
• receiving a request from a user of the one or more users to access the shareable unit;
• and
• provisioning a single access token to provide access to the shareable unit without provisioning an access token or tokens pertaining to individual ones of the one or more constituent content objects of the shareable unit, wherein the single access token covers access to both the shareable unit and constituents of the shareable unit.

• a storage medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions;
• and
• one or more hardware processors that execute the instructions to cause the one or more processors to perform a set of acts, the acts comprising,
• assigning individual ones of the shared content objects to have individual permissions grantable to one or more users of a cloud-based storage system;
• receiving one or more shareable unit attributes describing a shareable unit, the shareable unit comprising one or more constituent content objects stored on one or more storage devices in the cloud-based storage system, the one or more constituent content objects corresponding to constituent images organized in a particular order for viewing the shareable unit by the one or more users;
• receiving a request from a user of the one or more users to access the shareable unit;
