Obtaining attribution information for representations

摘要

This disclosure describes systems and methods that enable attribution information to be obtained and associated with digital items, also referred as representations, as well as enable supplemental information to be associated with the representations. In some implementations, a user may request to use a representation and the system may determine that attribution information is to be obtained from a rights holder and/or provider of the representation. When the attribution information is obtained it is associated with the representation that is available for use by the user.

1. A computing system, comprising:
one or more processors; and a memory coupled to the one or more processors and storing program instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to at least:
identify a representation presented on a web page based at least in part on an input from a user;identify, based at least in part on a representation identifier included in a code of the web page, a provider of the representation;provide the representation identifier to the provider and request attribution information related to the representation;receive a response that includes the attribution information from a source other than the user;determine supplemental information related to an object that is represented in the representation;include the representation and the supplemental information in a user-created object identifier;identify a second representation based at least in part on the attribution information, wherein the object is represented in the second representation, and wherein the representation and second representation are different;replace the representation included in the object identifier with the second representation such that the object identifier includes the second representation; andsend for presentation the second representation for selection and use by the user, the supplemental information, and at least a portion of the attribution information of the object identifier.
