  • Coordinated exchange of auxiliary session data for multi-platform environments
    Patent number: 12356294
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to cross-platform exchange and sharing of auxiliary session data in connection with a transfer of a communication session. For example, with transfer of a voice call from a first platform to a second platform, the first platform shares profile data for a call participant to the second platform. In an example method, a first platform at which a user is connected to a communication session retrieves auxiliary session data. The first platform determines a transfer of the session to a second platform and sends a data record that includes the auxiliary session data to the second platform. The first platform transfers the communication session via a different cross-platform channel with a token that uniquely identifies the first platform and the data record. Accordingly, the token can be used by the second platform to locate the data record for use during the communication session.
