Techniques are disclosed for providing copy/paste support for web conference content. Methods and systems allow copy/paste operations in web conference sessions with multimedia content based on data extracted from conference content transmitted during the web conference. The web conference can connect clients for live sharing of documents, audio, video, applications such as web applications, and web pages. In one embodiment, a conference application can receive content from a first client participating in the web conference. The conference application can extract data items from the content. The conference application can store the extracted data items. The conference application can also receive, from a second client participating in the web conference, a selection of a portion of the conference content. The conference application can retrieve extracted data items corresponding to the selection, and then provide, via the web conference, to the second client participating in the web conference, the retrieved data items.
