[0119] Alice works for Company A and wants to share some documents about a project stored in a storage service with her colleagues Bob and Carol for the sake of collaboration. These documents are managed by a file manager (FM) application. Alice accesses the FM application on one of her electronic devices to select documents to sync. Alice specifies that she wants to share selected documents with users for Company A / Bob and Company A / Carol. The FM application uses the storage service to create a syncgroup on Alice's behalf. The sync group name concatenates the sync group server name with a unique identifier. For example, the name of the sync group may be " / company A / sgserver / A12HJU". The FM application can set one or more permissions and prefixes for the sync group. Permissions and / or preferences may be based on Alice's preferences. For example, Alice can specify a permission "alldevices" for Carol and Bob, which means they can join the syncgroup with any electronic dev...

Abstract

A system for creating a sync group in a distributed system may inlcude an offline electronic device having a short range communication transmitter and a storage service, and a computer-readable storage medium comprising one or more programming instructions. The system may receive a request from an application to create a sync group, and verify that the application has read access to the storage service. In response to verifying that the application has read access to the storage service, the system may create the sync group by receiving an indication of one or more objects stored in the storage service that are to be shared, identifying one or more members of the sync group, and assigning one or more permissions to the one or more members that are identified. The system may synchronize access to the objects among the electronic device and one or more member electronic devices.

Background technique [0003] It is often desirable to share data among multiple devices and multiple users. However, this can be difficult when one or more devices are offline but still want to share data. Additionally, users may have the ability to change data concurrently. Detecting and resolving potential conflicts for such changes in a distributed system can be difficult. Contents of the invention [0004] This disclosure is not limited to the particular systems, methods or protocols described, as these may vary. Terms used in this specification are for the purpose of describing a specific version or embodiment, and are not intended to limit the scope. [0005] As used herein, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" include plural ...
