Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for sharing a shared interface and allowing participants to annotate the shared interface within a group-based communication system. A shared interface is shared by an interface sharing device to participating devices, which can then individually annotate the shared interface by creating interface annotations that then are shared on the shared interface by the interface sharing device. Such methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products provide for an efficient and effective method of advancing discussions among a group in a group-based communication system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products that enable performing format-dynamic string processing in a group-based communication system.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for managing one or more group-based communications and/or one or more group-based communication channels to cause rendering of a group-based communication interface. In some embodiments, a group-based communication system causes rendering of a group-based communication interface including a focus interface component, which may be used to receive a user focus selection input. The group-based communication system generates a focus value and identifies a focus threshold. The group-based communication causes rendering of the group-based communication interface based on whether the focus value satisfies the identified focus threshold. Embodiments further provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for managing one or more user communications to cause rendering of a user communication interface.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a group-based communication apparatus that is configured to enable end-users (e.g., non-admin users) to initiate, by way of client devices, generation of a shareable resource associated with a group-based communication resource identifier to efficiently authorize communication between client devices associated with different organization identifiers in group-based communication interfaces associated with a shared group-based communication resource identifier.

Abstract: Hosted communication channels associated with a communication platform are described. In an example, a user can utilize communication services available via a communication platform. In some examples, a first organization can invite a second organization to join a communication channel. The two organizations can be different such that they are associated with different organization identifiers and are associated with different permissions. In some examples, content associated with each organization can be private, such that other organizations cannot access content that is owned or otherwise managed by each organization. However, content posted to shared communication channels can be accessed, viewed, interacted with, or the like by any member of the shared communication channels. To address privacy and/or security concerns, some organizations or users of the communication platform may desire to control how end users that join a shared communication channel interact with the shared communication channel.

Abstract: Subscriptions for object updates to be transmitted to a client device may be dynamically managed based on the occurrence of one or more trigger events at the client device, which causes the client device to transmit subscription modification requests to a computing platform configured to dynamically maintain object subscription lists for each of one or more client devices based at least in part on subscription modification requests received from each of the one or more client devices, to determine whether subscribed objects for a particular client device are current at the client device, and to transmit updates of subscribed objects in real-time upon determining that the particular client device does not comprise current object data.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for maintaining minimum interface functionality in an absence of a push based communications connection in a group-based communication system.

Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product for multi-device user authentication are described herein. For example, the apparatus includes at least one processor and at least one non-transitory memory including program code.

Abstract: A group-based communication platform may be utilized to execute one or more processing actions via respective external application systems based on messages exchanged among client devices via the group-based communication platform. A particular processing action may be executed for a particular message by generating a container including contextual data and payload data, wherein the payload data comprises the message for which the processing action is to be performed. The container is provided to the external application system via a proxy endpoint, thereby causing the external application system to execute the processing action based on the data included within the container.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the disclosure are directed to updating a selected group-based communication interface of a plurality of group-based communication interfaces with an application dialog received from an external application. User interaction data may be generated based on group-messages in group-based communication channels of the selected group-based communication interface. A validation server parses the user interaction data received to identify a triggering event associated with the external application by comparing the parsed user interaction data with a triggering event registry. The validation server then sends a trigger token to the external application associated with the triggering event. In response to receiving the trigger token, the external application sends the validation server application dialogs and/or dialog validation data that is authenticated and output for rendering to the selected group-based communication interface.

Abstract: Techniques are described for expediting a generation of a direct messaging instance between two people associated with different organizations. A first person associated with a communication platform may submit a request to the communication platform to generate an invitation to communicate via the direct messaging instance. The first person may provide the invitation to a second person directly or via the communication platform. Responsive to receiving an indication that the second person has accepted the invitation, the communication platform may generate a direct messaging instance between the first person and the second person. The communication platform may update respective user interfaces to include the direct messaging instance. The communication platform may process messages and/or data between the first person and the second person that is input on the respective user interface and sent via the direct messaging instance.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for building an rendering a message user interface (UI) within a group-based communication interface of a group-based communication system, where the message UI is rendered to a client device based on a customizable block configuration and on customizable block data that is received from an external application.

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.
