  • Publication number: 20240119236
    Abstract: Systems, methods and products for accessing a set of electronic document templates, identifying instances of common document content such as content items which are semantically similar, and generating component templates containing the common content. Semantically similar content may be identified by analyzing content for factors such as expressed sentiment, included keyphrases, recognizable entities, expressed topics, assigning values to content based on these factors, and determining similarity based on comparisons of the assigned values. Component templates may also be generated based on types of content that include identical text or images, content that has a predefined level of similarity rather than being identical, content that has common rules, scripting logic or variables, metadata, etc. The component templates may be generated automatically, or in response to user instructions.

  • Publication number: 20240106768
    Abstract: One embodiment comprises a non-transitory, computer-readable medium embodying thereon computer-executable instructions for receiving a document design, generating a conversation-enabled document from the document design, exposing the conversation-enabled document on a conversation channel, receiving a participant response, updating the conversation-enabled document based the participant response, and rendering a communication page on a second channel using the updated conversation-enabled document. The document design comprises a page template and a conversation template. The page template specifies content of the communication page and a variable to be populated with a first variable value. The conversation template defines a state machine for an automated conversation, the conversation template specifying a variable to which the participant response is to be written.

  • Patent number: 11922117
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to generation of document editors having functions specified by role policies. Examples include acquisition of a request to provide a target user a document editor for a target document type and a determination, in response to the request, of which of a plurality of role policies is associated with the target user based on a role assigned to the target user in an enterprise, wherein each of the role policies is associated with a different role for the enterprise and specifies a different plurality of document editor functions permitted to be included in a document editor for the target document type for a user assigned to the associated role.

  • Publication number: 20240036788
    Abstract: In one example of the disclosure, a set of electronic document templates is accessed and instances of duplicated document content are identified. Display of a user notice for first duplicated document content is caused. Responsive to receipt of data indicative of a user instruction to create a component template for the first duplicated content, the component template is created and stored.

  • Publication number: 20230198920
    Abstract: One embodiment comprises a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions executable to access a conversation-enabled document and expose the conversation-enabled document on a conversation channel as a conversation into the conversation-enabled document. The conversation-enabled document can comprise a conversation component for controlling a conversation interface into the conversation-enabled document, the conversation component specifying conversation steps, routing between conversation steps and a document variable to accept a conversation participant response. The computer-executable instructions can be executable to set a document variable value in the conversation-enabled document based on the participant response received via the conversation interface; and render the conversation-enabled document to a response channel using the document variable and the page template.
