Abstract

Non-limiting examples described herein relate to dynamic and intelligent transformation of a data object to a form that fits a context of a content portion in a receiving application/service. As an example, action(s), such as a drag and drop, is received through a user interface of a productivity service. The drag and drop drags a data object onto a content portion of a digital document. A context for the drag and drop is determined based on semantic analysis of the drag and drop. A composite data object is generated based on the determined context of the drag and drop. The composite data object comprises the content portion and a representation of the data object that alters presentation of the data object to fit a context of the content portion. The composite data object may be surfaced through the user interface.
