  • Publication number: 20240179375
    Abstract: A method for recommending feed sources in an event feed includes generating an event feed comprising a plurality of feed items associated with a user. The event feed includes a recommendation feed item comprising one or more feed item sources not being followed by the user. The method further includes causing at least a portion of the event feed to be displayed to the user in the event feed. In accordance with a determination that the user is viewing a graphical user interface associated with a first software application, the recommendation feed item includes feed item sources associated with the first software application. In accordance with a determination that the user is viewing a graphical user interface associated with a second software application different from the first, the recommendation feed item includes feed item sources associated with the second software application.

  • Patent number: 11977863
    Abstract: A system may determine one or more data sources which the system is configured to access. The system may provide a set of application programming interfaces (APIs) for interacting with data stored in one or more data sources. The APIs may be accessible to one or more web applications which the system is configured to serve. The system may determine that a web application has requested an operation for interacting with the data through one or more APIs in the set of APIs. The system may determine one or more responses based at least in part on the operation requested by the web application. The system may provide the response(s) to the web application.

  • Patent number: 11914558
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided in order to avoid ingesting the entire contents of one or more data sources. An object may be associated with one or more pieces/fragments of data that can be stored in different data sources. When a request for the object is initiated, a search for those pieces/fragments of data can be performed. Nodes associated with each data source may generate data queries appropriate for its corresponding data source, retrieve, and if needed transform the data into an object-based data structure. Any pieces/fragments of data that have been discovered and retrieved can be joined, e.g., by an application programming interface server, and forwarded to a requesting client or application. In this way, only data relevant to the object is obtained. Moreover, object versioning can be employed so that the most up-to-date data is obtained.
