Abstract: A group-based communication platform is configured to ascertain the relatedness of various work objects shared among users of the group-based communication platform. Moreover, the group-based communication platform may further receive and process work objects originating from non-users of the group-based communication platform, thereby further expanding the utility of the determined relatedness between work objects. These work objects (or encrypted representations of these work objects) may be indexed and stored in association with the group-based communication platform, thereby enabling users to search for and retrieve work objects originating from a plurality of work object sources simultaneously, and based on various characteristics of those work objects and the determined interrelatedness between various work objects.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for programmatically determining a user status avatar that is configured for transmitting as renderable within a group-based communication interface of a group-based communication system.

Abstract: Method, system, apparatus, and computer program product for programmatically managing limited engagement by an external email resource entity with a group-based communication interface of a group-based communication system are described herein.

Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product for generating a channel calendar in a group-based communication system are described herein. The apparatus is configured to at least generate a channel calendar identifier associated with a group-based communication channel in the group-based communication system, receive a calendar sharing request associated with the channel calendar identifier from a client device, retrieve the calendar object and calendar object metadata set based on the channel calendar identifier, and cause rendering of the calendar object for display via a user interface of the client device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to verifying a third-party resource by automatically validating multi-factor message codes associated with the third-party resource to enable access to functionality associated with the third-party resource via a multi-app communication system. An example embodiment includes a multi-app communication system including at least one processor and at least one memory. The embodiment multi-app communication system is configured to receive a sign-in request from a multi-app communication system application executed on a client device, and cause transmission of a multi-factor confirmation message to a verified third-party multi-factor authentication resource. The embodiment multi-app communication system is further configured query the verified third-party multi-factor authentication resource to identify the multi-factor confirmation message, and enable access to the third-party resource.

Abstract: The present invention is, in one embodiment, a system and method based on a client-server architecture for seamlessly integrating various information systems. In one embodiment, a bundle of files is deployed to a collaboration client, in order to enable the integration of the collaboration client with disparate information systems and content. In one embodiment, content within a mailbox item is allowed to become a “live” object, and is associated with trigger events, and actions, including sending all or part of the content to a separate information system. In one embodiment, mailbox items are subjected to predefined searches to assess whether they include certain content objects. In another embodiment, panel item elements are visible in the overview panel of the collaboration client. The user may interact with the panel items by dragging content onto them, double clicking them, and invoking actions from a context menu if one is available.

Abstract: A system, computer-readable storage medium, and computer-implemented method for assigning a task based on content presented in a data feed are presented. A data feed that includes a set of content items is presented. Each of the content items included in the data feed may include a graphical user interface element capable of invoking task assignment functionality with respect to each content item. A task based on a content item presented in the data feed may be created and assigned to a selected user in response to receiving a selection of the graphical user interface element. The method may further include generating an individual status report for the user that includes every task assigned to the user.

Abstract: A communication server, computer-readable storage medium and computer-implemented method for executing commands embedded in messages are provided. The method may include detecting user input of a special character while a user is composing a message and in response to detecting the user input of the special character, presenting a selectable list of command operators to the user. The method may further include causing a command operator to be included in the message in response to user selection of the command operator from the selectable list of command operators. The command operator is operative to execute an action performed by a network-based service executing on an application server. The method may further include identifying, at an outbound communication serer, the command operator included in the message, and transmitting a request to the application server to perform the action corresponding thereto.
