Abstract

The present technology addresses a scenario when a user attempts to create a cloud content item using a file system interface on a client device. The present technology can immediately create a content item that is representative of a cloud content item once the user requests a cloud content item to be created. The content item that is representative of the cloud content item can be created even before the cloud content item itself is created. After the cloud content item is created, the present technology provides a mechanism to relate the content item that this representative of the cloud content item with the actual cloud content item.
