Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable storage media for providing access to an online social network. The online social network can be specific to an organization having one or more internal users. In some implementations, a request message is received from a requesting user to access social network data of the online social network. The requesting user is identified as an external user of the organization, and it is determined that the requesting user has an authorized status. Access to only a portion of the social network data is provided to the authorized requesting user.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable storage media for providing alerts in an online social network. In some implementations, the online social network is specific to an organization having one or more internal users and one or more external users. An indication of an action associated with providing data to the online social network is received from a computing device. A group associated with the indication of the action is identified. It is determined that the identified group includes the one or more external users. Responsive to determining that the identified group includes the one or more external users, an instruction to display an alert notification is provided at the computing device.
