Abstract

Systems and methods for adding digital content associated with a first user account within a content management system to a second user account within the content management system. In various embodiments, the system may be configured to allow a user to add digital content to an account within a content management system associated with the user when the user receives a shared link to access digital content associated with an account within the content management system belonging to another user. The system may be configured to add the digital content to the user account by associating the digital content with the user's account. In various embodiments, the system may be configured to add the digital content to the user's account by creating an entry in a server-side file journal associated with the user's account, where the entry includes one or more file reference strings associated with the digital content.
