Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure relate to service-backed generation and management of digital ruled paper templates in an exemplary application/service such as a notetaking service. As an example, access to a user account of a notetaking service is detected. A digital context associated with the user account is evaluated. An evaluation of the digital context comprises identifying user identity data associated with the user account and analyzing domain specific data of the notetaking service that corresponds with the identified user identity data. The domain specific data may comprise data identifying a specific electronic notebook of the notetaking service. A customized listing of digital ruled paper templates is populated based on an evaluation of the digital context. The customized listing of digital ruled paper templates is transmitted to the client computing device, which surfaces the customized listing of digital ruled paper templates in a user interface of the notetaking service.

Service backed digital ruled paper templates

Described herein is a system and method for embedding an electronic file in a document canvas of an application. User input of an electronic file to be embedded in a document canvas of an application is received. Information regarding the electronic file to be embedded, a target page and/or a user is analyzed to determine parameter(s) regarding representation of the electronic file in the document canvas. The electronic file is embedded in the document canvas of the application in accordance with the determined at least one parameter regarding representation of the electronic file in the document canvas.

Service-backed contextual document embedding

Methods and systems are provided that enable single sign-on (SSO) mechanisms on rich clients running hosting applications that include documents with one or more embedded web assets. An embedded web asset may be any resource (e.g., document, image, data, etc.) that is accessed via a browser from within a hosting application. In aspects, authentication of a user identity is required to access an embedded web asset. In particular, an identity management module is provided on a rich client. The identity management module is configured to maintain multiple credentials for multiple user identities that are associated with multiple applications, whether the applications are embedded applications or hosting applications. In this way, a user may access multiple applications, including embedded web assets, associated with each user identity&#x2014;without signing into each application. That is, a user is able to login a single time for each user identity.
