In one embodiment, a method includes accessing a first voice avatar associated with a first user, wherein the first voice avatar comprises a first description of a first audio processing chain to transform voice inputs; receiving a first voice input from a first client system of the first user; processing the first voice input to generate a first transformed audio corresponding to the first voice input, wherein the first voice input is processed by one or more audio processors, wherein the one or more audio processors are constructed based on the description of the first audio processing chain from the first voice avatar; and sending the first transformed audio to one or more second client systems of one or more second users for playback.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for syncing and propagating updated metadata across multiple endpoints. In one aspect, a request is sent from a client computing device to a service for updated metadata of a dataset. When updated metadata is identified at the service, updated metadata associated with a parent node of the dataset may be received at the client computing device without requiring the service to send updated metadata for one or more children nodes in the dataset. store the updated metadata associated with the parent node of the dataset may be stored in a local data store at the client computing device.

Methods and systems for authorizing and enabling a virtual assistant or meeting host temporary access to one's own data during an activity or meeting event. A user is offered various options for enabling the temporary access to the virtual assistant prior to a scheduled meeting, and during impromptu meetings. The user can specify the duration that the access should be valid, a system can automatically disable the temporary access at the termination of the meeting event and/or if the user is no longer a participant at the meeting event. The authorization can be configured to target specific types of data and types of access.

The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured for management of proactive suggestion(s) that may be utilized to manage the sharing of meeting content. The present disclosure further describes optimization of a user interface whereby a user interface experience is improved through new user interface features and actions that enable proactive presentation of suggestions for syncing content with a meeting as well as sharing synced content. Various intelligent signals such as user's calendar, GPS location, camera roll content, capture content (including OCR, whiteboard detection, etc.) and capture time, are collected and analyzed to make smart suggestions to the user to share content with specific set of people (e.g., those involved in meeting). Processing described herein enables contextual correlation between specific content and a scheduled meeting, whereby results of that contextual correlation can be used to execute programmed actions to improve efficiency for computing devices and users.

Proactive suggestion for sharing of meeting content

Technologies are described herein for the identification of documents based on location, usage patterns, and content. In some configurations, techniques disclosed herein cause documents to be identified that are relevant to the location of the user and the current context of the user. Some illustrative configurations involve identifying documents that are associated with a particular location. In addition to using location information, other data can be analyzed to identify documents that are relevant to the current location of the user and/or the current context of the user. The other data can also include data such as, but not limited to, calendar data, document data (e.g., contents of documents, metadata associated with documents), organizational charts, and contact lists. The documents that are relevant to the meeting participants and the subject of the meeting can then be presented to the user for easy access.

Identification of documents based on location, usage patterns and content

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to systems and methods for optimizing syncing of metadata changes using a chunked response. In one aspect, an application may be launched in a foreground of a client computing device. A single streaming request may be sent to an application service for updated metadata of a dataset while the application is running in the foreground. A response to the single streaming request may be received at the client computing device. The response may include the updated metadata of the dataset, where the updated metadata is represented as a plurality of pages. While the application is running in a background of the client computing device, each page of the plurality of pages may be processed as the response to the single streaming request is received.

Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for enhancing error detection in data synchronization operations. In an implementation, log data reported by a device is received and incorporated into an event database indicating interleaved events related to data synchronization threads on the device. The event database is queried to extract a listing of events in the event database, the listing of events comprising events potentially associated with at least one error condition in the data synchronization threads. The listing of events is processed to identify one or more patterns from among the interleaved events that indicate the at least one error condition in the data synchronization threads. Responsive to identifying the one or more patterns, an indication of the at least one error condition in the data synchronization threads is communicated.
