  • CONFIGURING SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR OBJECTS OF THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS INTEGRATED INTO A COMMUNICATION PLATFORM
    Publication number: 20230229291
    Abstract: Configuring subscriptions for receiving notifications associated with objects of a group-based communication platform is described. A user interface element, which can correspond to an object, can be displayed in a user interface of the group-based communication platform. An indication of an interaction with the user interface element can be received and in response to receiving the indication of the interaction with the user interface element, a subscription user interface can be presented via the user interface, wherein the subscription user interface is associated with an option to subscribe to notifications associated with the object. In response to receiving a request to subscribe to notifications associated with the object, a subscription for notifications associated with the object can be generated and, in response to generating the subscription, a subscription user interface element can be presented via the user interface to indicate that the object is associated with a subscription.

  • Utilizing message metadata for improving user interface presentation
    Patent number: 11175806
    Abstract: Utilizing message metadata for improving user interface presentation is described. In an example, a first message associated with first metadata and a second message associated with second metadata can be received via a group-based communication platform. Based at least in part on the first metadata and the second metadata, causing the first message and the second message to be presented in a message digest via a first portion of a user interface associated with the group-based communication platform. The message digest can be associated with an actuation mechanism and, in response to receiving an indication of an interaction with the actuation mechanism, the first message and the second message can be presented, separately, via a second portion of the user interface.
