Abstract
To share snips of content, content access metadata of a content file is parsed to identify an accessible range of the content file and an inaccessible range of the content file with reference to content access rules for a user. A user can identify a selection of a snip of the accessible range of the content file in a user interface. Once the selection is identified, a copy of the snip of the content file, a link to the snip of the content file, or both can be generated and forwarded to the user. The link can include an argument that identifies a start and an end of the snip. The link can also include other arguments, such as copy snip, access rule, or expiration arguments. The copy of the snip can also be limited by the start and end of the snip.
Claims20
A method for content snip capture and sharing, comprising:
- presenting, by at least one computing device, an indicator of at least one accessible range of a content file and at least one inaccessible range of the content file based on content access rules;
- and
- identifying, by the at least one computing device, a selection of a snip of the content file within the at least one accessible range of the content file.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program code executable in at least one computing device for content snip capture and sharing, the program code being configured to cause the at least one computing device to at least:
- present an indicator of at least one accessible range of a content file and at least one inaccessible range of the content file based on content access rules;
- and
- identify a selection of a snip of the content file within the at least one accessible range of the content file.
A system for content snip capture and sharing, comprising:
- at least one memory device to store computer-readable instructions thereon;
- and
- at least one computing device configured, through execution of the computer-readable instructions, to:
- present an indicator of at least one accessible range of a content file and at least one inaccessible range of the content file based on content access rules;
- and
- identify a selection of a snip of the content file within the at least one accessible range of the content file.
