Abstract

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for managing content items having multiple resolutions may be provided. In some embodiments, a user device may send a request to access one or more images from a content management system. The one or more images may be categorized on the user device by an expected use that determines that the one or more images be in a first version. A second version of the one or more images may be received while a background download of the first version of the one or more images may be performed. In some embodiments, the first version may correspond to a high-resolution image whereas the second version may correspond to a lower resolution image.

Claims (63)

1. A system comprising:

at least one processor; and

at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:

identify a plurality of content items associated with a user account, the plurality of content items being stored on one or more servers of a content management system;

analyze metadata associated with each content item of the plurality of content items to identify characteristics for each content item of the plurality of content items;

assign a first content item from the plurality of content items to a first priority level based on a first characteristic corresponding to the first content item;

assign a second content item from the plurality of content items to a second priority level based on a second characteristic corresponding to the second content item;

generate a prioritized download ordering based on the first priority level assigned to the first content item and the second priority level assigned to the second content item; and

provide, to a client device associated with the user account, the first content item and the second content item based on the prioritized download ordering.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein analyzing the metadata associated with each content item of the plurality of content items to identify characteristics for each content item comprises determining whether an action has been taken with respect to each content item of the plurality of content items.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein analyzing the metadata associated with each content item of the plurality of content items to identify characteristics for each content item comprises determining whether each content item has been edited or shared.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein generating the prioritized download ordering comprises ranking the first content item higher than the second content item in the prioritized download ordering based on the first content item being assigned the first priority level and the second content item being assigned the second priority level.

5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:

analyze updated metadata associated with each content item of the plurality of content items to identify updated characteristics for each content item of the plurality of content items;

assign an updated priority level to each content item of the plurality of content items; and

generate an updated prioritized download ordering based on the updated priority level assigned to each content item of the plurality of content items.

6. The system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:

determine that the first content item is part of a collection within the plurality of content items; and

wherein assigning the first content item from the plurality of content items to the first priority level is further based on the first content item being part of the collection.

7. The system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:

determining that the client device associated with the user account is storing a low-quality version of the first content item; and

wherein assigning the first content item from the plurality of content items to the first priority level is further based on determining that the client device associated with the user account is storing a low-quality version of the first content item.

8. A computer-implemented method comprising:

identifying a plurality of content items stored associated with a user account, the plurality of content items being stored on one or more servers associated with a content management system;

determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items;

assigning a first content item from the plurality of content items to a first priority level based on a first characteristic corresponding to the first content item;

assigning a second content item from the plurality of content items to a second priority level based on a second characteristic corresponding to the second content item;

generating a prioritized download ordering based on the first priority level assigned to the first content item and the second priority level assigned to the second content item; and

providing, to a client device associated with the user account, the first content item and the second content item based on the prioritized download ordering.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items comprises determining whether an action has been taken with respect to each content item of the plurality of content items.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items comprises determining whether each content item has been edited.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items comprises determining whether each content item has been shared.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein:

the prioritized download ordering prioritizes the first priority level higher than the second priority level; and

providing the first content item and the second content item based on the prioritized download ordering comprises providing the first content item to the client device before providing the second content item to the client device.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

determining updated characteristics for each content item of the plurality of content items;

assigning an updated priority level to each content item of the plurality of content items; and

generating an updated prioritized download ordering based on the updated priority level assigned to each content item of the plurality of content items.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

determining that the first content item is part of a collection within the plurality of content items, the collection comprising at least one additional content item; and

assigning the at least one additional content item to the first priority level based on:

the at least one additional content item being part of the collection with the first content item; and

the first content item being assigned to the first priority level.

15. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computing device to:

determining characteristics associated with each content item of a plurality of content items stored on one or more servers associated with a content management system, the plurality of content items associated with a user account of the content management system;

assigning each content item of the plurality of content items to a priority level based on one or more characteristics corresponding to each content item;

generating a prioritized download ordering based on the priority level assigned to each content item of the plurality of content items; and

providing, to a client device associated with the user account, the plurality of content items based on the prioritized download ordering.

16. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items comprises determining whether an action has been taken with respect to each content item of the plurality of content items.

17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein determining characteristics associated with each content item of the plurality of content items comprises determining whether each content item has been edited or shared.

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein:

the prioritized download ordering prioritizes a first priority level higher than a second priority level; and

providing, to the client device associated with the user account, the plurality of content items based on the prioritized download ordering comprises providing a first set of content items assigned to the first priority level prior to providing a second set of content items assigned to the second priority level.

19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to:

determine updated characteristics for each content item of the plurality of content items;

assign an updated priority level to each content item of the plurality of content items; and

generate an updated prioritized download ordering based on the updated priority level assigned to each content item of the plurality of content items.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , further comprising instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to:
