Claim 9:
10. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising one or more sequences of instructions, which, when executed by one or more processors of a content management system, cause the content management system to perform operations comprising:
generating a graphical user interface of a default view of a folder associated with a user account of the content management system, the default view comprising a first plurality of content items associated with the folder of the user account, wherein the default view is representative of an underlying hierarchical structure associated with the folder of the user account, and wherein the default view does not include at least one first content item associated with the folder of the user account, and wherein the generating comprises generating a first set of graphical representations of each content item in the first plurality of content items for display via the default view;
sending the graphical user interface of the default view to a client device associated with the user account for display;
receiving, from the client device, a request to transition from the default view of the folder to a modified view of the folder;
responsive to the receiving, generating an updated graphical user interface of the modified view, the generating comprising:
ranking content items associated with the folder of the user account based on a predicted likelihood of an interaction with each particular content item, wherein the ranking is performed based at least on past activity of the user account,
identifying a second plurality of content items associated with the folder of the user account for inclusion in the modified view based on the ranking, the second plurality of content items comprising the at least one first content item that is not one of the first plurality of content items shown in the default view and a third content item that is one of the first plurality of content items shown in the default view, and wherein the second plurality of content items does not include at least one second content item that is one of the first plurality of content items shown in the default view, and
generating a second set of graphical representations of each content item in the second plurality of content items for display via the updated graphical user interface, wherein the modified view maintains the underlying hierarchical structure of the content items associated with the user account; and

transmitting the modified view to the client device for display.
