Abstract
A network service maintains a recently used resource list for a user that includes a list of references (e.g., hyperlinks) to resources (e.g., files) recently accessed by the user. An application, such as a web browser application or a web browser extension, periodically retrieves the recently used resource list for the user from the network service. When the application is utilized to display a text entry field, a user interface ('UI') can be provided for inserting references to recently used resources identified in the recently used resource list into the text entry field. Through the UI, the user can select a resource identified in the recently used resource list using appropriate user input (e.g., selection of a resource using a mouse cursor, touch, or keyboard input). In response thereto, a reference (e.g., a hyperlink) to a selected resource can be inserted into the text entry field.
