Abstract
The present technology is a backup service that can provide a menu of collaboration options that can be selected within the backup service for implementation by a synchronization service. In such an embodiment, when a user selects a collaboration option from the menu of collaboration options in the backup service, the backup service can call the synchronization service to copy the backup object into the synchronization service and implement the selected collaboration option. This can provide a benefit of reducing the number of user interfaces that need to be displayed and interacted with in order to carry out the intent of the user to offer a copy of the backup object for collaboration. The present technology also provides improved user interfaces.
