Abstract: Computing systems, database systems, and related methods are provided for supporting dynamic resources. One exemplary method involves a resource server identifying a reference to an external source within a resource obtained from a resource database, retrieving data residing at the external source from a network using the reference, and generating a graphical representation of the resource at a client device communicatively coupled to the network. The graphical representation of the resource includes a graphical representation of the retrieved data at a location within the graphical representation of the resource corresponding to a location of the reference within the resource.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the automatic suggestion generation in a relationship management system is described.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for composing and batch publishing feed items in a user interface in a feed-based interaction context. In some implementations, a computing device provides a first prompt for display in a first user interface component, which is configured to display unpublished feed items. The computing device receives, at the first prompt, first feed item data for a first feed item. Responsive to a request to compose a second feed item, the computing device displays in the first user interface component a second prompt for second feed item data without publishing the first feed item. The computing device receives, at the second prompt, second feed item data for a second feed item of a first record, the first and second feed items being related to the first record.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer readable storage media for interacting with a content object from an on-demand database service.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for automatically creating and displaying an action plan generated from an action plan template. An action plan template is created by a template owner, who can then add tasks to the action plan template until all tasks to be included as part of the template have been created. After it has been published, action plan owners can use it during an action plan creation process. An action plan owner can select a particular target record to be associated with a new action plan and specify other action plan details. An application platform can then automatically populate the new action plan with information indicating: a name of the action plan owner, a plurality of tasks a corresponding task owner who is assigned to each task, and a corresponding task deadline that was automatically calculated for each task by the action plan creation module.

Abstract: System and method to display PIM application content in one or more PIM application display panes of a graphical user interface (GUI), select the displayed PIM application content for which to obtain a one or more record overviews of a CRM record related to the PIM application content, receive PIM application context data related to selected PIM application content, generate the one or more record overviews of the CRM record related to the PIM application content to display in a context-specific display pane based on the received PIM application content or PM application context data, and display the generated one or more record overviews in the context-specific display pane.

Abstract: Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure may utilize identification information associated with a user from a variety of sources in order to authenticate the user for a particular platform. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
