Abstract
Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for importing and merging photos from different sources are disclosed. The system receives credentials from a user, who has an account with a content management system. The credentials are associated with content item storage entities such as photo repositories. The system accesses the photo repositories, using the plurality of credentials if authorization is required for data access. The system identifies source photo data in each of the photo repositories, and duplicates the source photo data in the content management system account to create consolidated photo data.
