Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for authenticating a user. An example computer-implemented method includes verifying compliance with one or more security procedures for a given group-based communication browser session based on a comparison of a boot data object and an authentication data. The boot data object includes a set of standardized parameters of a booting operation and the authentication data includes a set of core information enabling access to the given group-based communication browser session. The computer-implemented method also includes receiving group-based communication data specific to the group-based communication browser session from the group-based communication system. The computer-implemented method further includes displaying at least a portion of the group-based communication data specific to the group-based communication browser session. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for progressively instantiating workspaces for a group-based communication system. A request is received to load group-based communication system workspaces and begin receiving real-time events. The workspaces are classified into a plurality of priority and dormant workspaces. The priority workspaces are instantiated, and real-time events associated with the priority workspaces are transmitted to a group-based communication system. Real-time events are detected that trigger instantiation of dormant workspaces, and associated dormant workspaces added to the set of priority workspaces.

Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for initiating a group-based communication browser session. An example computer-implemented method includes generating a group-based communication browser session initiation request via a processor of the apparatus. The computer-implemented method also includes loading a boot data object. The boot data object includes one or more predefined parameters of a booting operation stored locally on the client device and the boot data object is applicable to a plurality of executable software applications. The computer-implemented method further includes downloading at least one asset data and application data based on a specific application of the plurality of executable software applications from a group-based communication system. The at least one of the asset data and the application data is configured for generation of at least a portion of a display associated with the group-based communication browser session.

Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for background loading data. The computer-implemented method includes executing a group-based communication browser session module stored in at least one memory. The computer-implemented method also includes causing a service worker to request an update for the group-based communication browser session module during execution of the group-based communication browser session module. The computer-implemented method further includes receiving the update for the group-based communication browser session during the operation of the group-based communication browser session. The computer-implemented method still further includes caching the update via the service worker. The computer-implemented method also includes restarting the group-based communication browser session module after caching the update.

Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for background updating an application. An example computer-implemented method includes activating a group-based communication browser session within a first display window of an apparatus. The computer-implemented method also includes transmitting an update request for the group-based communication browser session to a group-based communication system upon determining that a window focus of the apparatus is on a second display window. The computer-implemented method further includes receiving an update for the group-based communication browser session. The computer-implemented method still further includes caching the update for the group-based communication browser session via a memory of the apparatus. The computer-implemented method also includes refreshing the group-based communication browser session based at least in part on the update upon determining that the window focus of the apparatus changes to the first display window.
