A method for predictive caching may include determining previous user activity related to data items and/or documents, receiving a request to view a document from a user, predicting data items to pre-cache based on the previous user activity and at least one other factor, prioritizing the predicted data items for pre-caching, dividing the prioritized data items for pre-caching into a plurality of groups, downloading prioritized data items for each group among the plurality of groups according to the prioritization of the predicted data items, and displaying a view of the document after data items, corresponding to the request, are received.

Systems and methods for predictive caching

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for maintaining dashboard state are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of accessing data identifying modifications that the user has previously applied to the dashboard. The actions further include applying, to the dashboard, the modifications that the user has previously applied to the dashboard. The actions further include providing, to the client device, the modified dashboard. The actions further include receiving, from the client device, additional modifications applied by the user to the modified dashboard. The actions further include updating the modifications that the user previously applied to the dashboard without updating the dashboard by adding data identifying the additional modifications to the data identifying the modifications.

Maintaining dashboard state

In one implementation, actions may include generating a first key for encryption of data and a second key for encryption of connection parameters. The connection parameters may enable the client device to establish a connection to an update server. Further actions may include encrypting the connection parameters using the second key and providing the first key and the second key to the update server. Additional actions may include storing the first key on the client device, receiving, at the client device, a notification of an update that includes the second key, decrypting the encrypted connection parameters using the received second key, and connecting to the update server using the decrypted connection parameters. Actions may further include providing a request for the update to the update server, receiving data encrypted using the first key in response, and decrypting the encrypted data using the first key.
