  • Patent number: 11632347
    Abstract: Systems herein supply hero cards that display contextual information and actions based on backend systems. The information and actions are related to a trigger content item in an application that does not have access to the backend systems. A hero agent running a user device can communicate the trigger content to a hero server. The hero server can determine which connectors to backend systems relate to the user device, and then can retrieve result information from one or more of the backend systems. The result information populates the hero card, which the hero agent displays within the application. Action buttons on the hero card cause the hero agent to contact one or more of the backend systems to cause an action to take place there.

  • Patent number: 11461494
    Abstract: Various examples for providing for the secure view of content on devices are disclosed. In one example, a content modification service, such as an email modification service, can access a document from a server destined for a client device and generate a modified form of the document by adjusting a visual setting associated with a display of the content that affects an ability to view the content from an area beyond a predetermined range. The content modification service or a client application can selectively provide the document or the modified version of the document in a display of the client device based on a setting of the client device, a device profile, or compliance rules specified by an administrator of a management service.
