  • Patent number: 11635989
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to dynamically routing an event to a component of a hybrid application. For example, a method may include: detecting an event from a first component of a first component type of a hybrid application; transmitting a request to execute a function associated with the event to a plurality of components, the plurality of components being a combination of components of the first component type and components of a second component type different from the first component type, the first component being different from the plurality of components; dynamically determining which component of the plurality of components to assign to execute the function, the dynamically determining being based on which components of the plurality of components are available to execute the function and one or more rules; assigning the function to the determined component; and receiving a result of the function from the determined component.

  • Publication number: 20220236998
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed techniques for bootstrap management. A method includes: upon an initial launch of an application on a client device, fetching, from a server and using a native component of the application, content for loading a web component of the application on the client device; determining whether a bootstrap management mode is enabled on the client device; and responsive to the bootstrap management mode is enabled and in response to the web component being launched: receiving, at the native component and from the web component, a manifest and a request for bootstrapping resources; caching, by the native component, the manifest from the web component; fetching, from the server and using the native component, the bootstrapping resources requested by the web component; caching, by the native component, the fetched bootstrapping resources in the memory; and providing, by the native component, the fetched bootstrapping resources to the web component.

  • Publication number: 20220147375
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to integrating mobile application plug-ins. For example, a method may include: at run-time of a host application, initializing, by the host application, a plurality of plug-ins; in response to initializing the plurality of plug-ins, establishing a set of supported services provided between a plurality of components comprising a native component of the host application and the plurality of plug-ins; detecting a request for a service from a first component of the plurality of components; and in response to determining that the requested service is one of the supported services, routing the requested service to a second component of the plurality of components, the second component being different than the first component.

  • Patent number: 10585925
    Abstract: In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating management of user queries and dynamic filtration of responses based on group filters in an on-demand services environment in a multi-tenant environment according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes receiving, at a first computing device, a query via an application programming interface (“API”) of a software application at a second computing device, where the query includes one or more filter parameters including a size filter parameter. The method may further include evaluating the query based on the one or more filter parameters including the size filter parameter, selecting a first response based on the size filter parameter, and communicating the first response to be viewed via the API at the second computing device.

  • Patent number: 10290127
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present invention include an apparatus for displaying line charts with responsive line thickness using a display screen of a mobile computing system and include a processor, and one or more stored sequences of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to receive a request to display a line chart on a display screen of a mobile computing system with the line chart having multiple line segments, determine density of information to be displayed with the line chart, and display the line chart with thickness of lines of the line chart corresponding to the determined density of information. The thickness of the line segments of the line chart is relatively thinner when the line chart includes higher density of information and relatively thicker when the line chart includes lower density of information.

  • Publication number: 20190129727
    Abstract: A system may implement a user-specific application interface (e.g., a user interface) to improve user retention of using the application and user efficiency when running the application. The system may implement the user interface based on a prior use of the interface, or based on one or more identifying characteristics of the user device. For example, a user device may determine one or more identifying characteristics that may include a device type of the user device (e.g., a tablet), a timestamp, or location information of the user device. The user device may, in turn, attempt to access a user-specific profile. Because the profile may be user-specific, the user device may receive an indication of the profile based on the user's prior use of the interface, the type of device, or a combination thereof. The user device may, in turn, display the user-specific interface at the user device.

  • Patent number: 9823813
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer program products for performing an action on a database record in an on-demand database service. What actions are presented to a user interface of a mobile device can depend on attributes of the database record, such as metadata stored in association with the database record. Selection of one of the actions can cause the mobile device to integrate data from hardware components, databases, and applications using mobile device. The data identified from the mobile device can be automatically associated with various data fields of the action. The selected action can be performed on the database record using the data in the data fields.

  • Publication number: 20170289801
    Abstract: A system stores first information, provided by a first user input via a mobile operating system, which enables access to a first restricted access website. The system stores a first screenshot and first data associated with the first restricted access website in response to a first user request, via the mobile operating system, to switch to a second restricted access website. The system stores second information, provided by a second user input via the mobile operating system, which enables access to the second restricted access website. The system stores a second screenshot and second data associated with the second restricted access website in response to a second user input, via the mobile operating system, to switch to the first restricted access website. The system outputs the first screenshot supported by the first data. The system enables access to the first restricted access website based on the stored first information.

  • Publication number: 20170097742
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present invention include a method for generating a dashboard using a display screen of a mobile computing system and includes displaying one or more dataset identifiers on a display screen of a mobile computing system. Based on detecting a selection of a dataset identifier, displaying one or more widgets on the display screen of the mobile computing system. Based on detecting a selection of a first widget, configuring the first widget to operate with a dataset associated with the selected dataset identifier. The first widget is then added to the dashboard based on completion of configuring of the first widget. Similar operations may be performed to add a second widget to the dashboard. Viewing the data in the dataset is possible by interacting with the first widget and the second widget in the dashboard.
