Abstract
A client service, such as a plug-in to a browser, can alter a document retrieved from a compatible service to augment the document with services from an online content management service. When an application retrieves a compatible document, the client service can detect a document element within the document and alter the document to provide an activatable reference to the online content management service. For example, a client service can recognize an email composition webpage or an email display webpage and insert activatable references provide services from the online content management service. In email composition webpages, a reference can be a button that allows an email author to insert a link to a content item from the online content management service. In email display webpages, references can be added that allow attachments to be sent to the online content management service for storage.
