Abstract

A content collaboration system for creating and providing secure content for authenticated users and also provides access to designated content for unauthenticated or unlicensed users. The designated content remains synchronized with changes made by authenticated users and may be served by a content caching system. The designated content may also be specially rendered without macro instruction sets or embedded content for unauthenticated users and rendered with full content for authenticated users. Control of publicly available content is managed using a hierarchical control scheme, which can provide enterprise-wide visibility and control of publicly accessible content.

Claims23

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method of providing user-generated pages of a content collaboration platform, the method comprising:

in response to a first user input at a graphical user interface of the content collaboration platform, causing creation of a page comprising user-generated content, the user-generated content comprising:
text content;
selectable graphical objects, each selectable graphical object is user-selectable to cause redirection to a respective target content item and display content extracted from the target content item;
and
one or more graphical items generated by a set of macro instructions associated with the page;
in response to a first request to view the page from an authenticated user, causing display of the page in a first client application associated with the authenticated user, the page displayed with the text content, the selectable graphical objects, and the one or more graphical items;
in response to a second request to view the page from an unauthenticated user, suppressing display of the page in a second client application associated with the unauthenticated user;
in response to a second user input to the graphical user interface, modifying a public-status permission profile of the page and, in accordance with the public-status permission profile granting access, enabling public access to the page for unauthenticated users;
generating a public address comprising a first domain portion and a second domain portion corresponding to an external content identifier of the page;
subsequent to enabling public access to the page and in response to a third request to view the page via the public address from the unauthenticated user, obtaining the public-status permission profile of the page using the external content identifier and an internal content identifier of the page;
and
in response to an evaluation of the public-status permission profile indicating that public access is currently granted, causing display of the page in the second client application associated with the unauthenticated user, the page displayed with the text content and without the selectable graphical objects and the one or more graphical items.

A computer-implemented method of providing user-generated pages of a content collaboration platform, the method comprising:

in response to a first request to view a page of the content collaboration platform from an authenticated user, causing display of the page in a first client application associated with the authenticated user, the page displayed with text content and one or more graphical items generated by a set of macro instructions associated with the page;
in response to a second request to view the page from an unauthenticated user, blocking display of the page in a second client application associated with the unauthenticated user;
in response to a user input to a graphical user interface associated with the page, enabling public access to the page for unauthenticated users by modifying a first permissions profile of the page;
generating a public address comprising a first domain portion and a second domain portion corresponding to a shared content ID of the page;
subsequent to enabling public access to the page and in response to a third request to view the page via the public address from the unauthenticated user:
determining a first permission level based on the first permissions profile of the page;
determining a second permission level based on a second permissions profile of a page space that includes the page and a plurality of other pages;
determining a third permission level based on a third permission profile of a platform hosting the page space and a plurality of other page spaces;
and
determining a fourth permission level based on a fourth permission profile of a tenant providing the platform and a plurality of other platforms;
and
in accordance with the first, second, third, and fourth permission levels allowing public access, causing display of the page in the second client application associated with the unauthenticated user, the page displayed with the text content and without the one or more graphical items.

9 more elements

A computer-implemented method of providing user-generated pages of a content collaboration platform, the method comprising:

in response to a first request to view a page of the content collaboration platform from an authenticated user, causing display of the page in a first client application associated with the authenticated user, the page displayed with page content including text content and one or more graphical items linked to other content items;
in response to a second request to view the page from an unauthenticated user, preventing display of the page in a second client application associated with the unauthenticated user;
in response to a user input with respect to a graphical user interface displaying the page, the user input associated with a request to modify a first permission profile of the page to allow unauthenticated user access:
determining a second permission level based on a second permissions profile of a page space that includes the page and a plurality of other pages;
and
determining a third permission level based on a third permission profile of a platform hosting the page space and a plurality of other page spaces;
and
in accordance with the first, second, and third permission levels allowing unauthenticated user access, modifying the first permission profile to allow unauthenticated user access, and generating a public address comprising a first domain portion and a second domain portion corresponding to a content identifier of the page;
subsequent to modifying the first permission profile to allow unauthenticated user access and in response to a third request to view the page via the public address from the unauthenticated user, retrieving at least a portion of the page content using the second domain portion;
and
causing display of the page in the second client application associated with the unauthenticated user, the page displayed with the text content and without the one or more graphical items linked to other content items.
