Patent number: 12143352Abstract: The present disclosure is related to automatically, based on contextual information and without needing explicit input from a user, modifying one or more settings associated with presenting a notification. In examples, settings may include automatically suspending notification presentation or automatically overriding a notification setting that suspends notification presentation. In addition, contextual information may include, among other things, information related to a computing device (e.g., device location or network signal strength), a rate of user interaction or engagement with an application (e.g., rate of information sharing, user reactions, etc.), and/or a calendar or schedule of a user. In examples, the contextual information may be analyzed (e.g., based on comparison to a threshold) to determine whether a condition is met, and based on the analysis, the one or more settings may be modified.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2023Date of Patent: November 12, 2024Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Akshay Bakshi, Scott Buchanan, Mina Chandler, Gavin Ham, Justin Rushing, Leena Mansour, Faisal Yaqub

Patent number: 11848906Abstract: Using proximity data to update user interfaces for users of a communication platform is described. The communication platform can determine, for a first user of the communication platform, a first location of the first user and for at least a second user of the communication platform, a second location of the second user. Based at least in part on a determination that the first location and the second location satisfy a condition, the communication platform can cause a user interface of the communication platform to be updated, wherein the updated user interface indicates at least one of (i) proximity data associated with the first user and the second user or (ii) context data associated with at least one of the first user or the second user.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Justin Rushing, Akshay Bakshi, Scott Buchanan, Leena Mansour

Patent number: 11700223Abstract: Asynchronous collaboration via a communication platform is described. A message representative of an asynchronous meeting can be displayed via a user interface of a communication platform. The user interface can include an affordance to enable a user to add a snippet of content to the asynchronous meeting. In response to detecting an actuation of the affordance, an input user interface that includes an option to record or upload the snippet of content can be displayed. The snippet of content can be received from a client of a user associated with the asynchronous meeting and can be associated with other snippet(s) of content added by other user(s) associated with the asynchronous meeting. A preview summary of snippet(s) of content associated with the asynchronous meeting can be displayed in association with the message, wherein each snippet of content is viewable via a thread associated with the message.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2021Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Anna Niess, Noah Weiss, Kevin Marshall, John Rodgers, Patrick Kane, Prajna Shetty, Michael Hahn, Alfred Xing, Justin Rushing, Julie Haynes

Publication number: 20230033027Abstract: Techniques for documenting steps in a workflow via a communication channel of a communication platform based on code data input via a computing device are described herein. In an example, a user inputs a code, such as by scanning the code with a camera of a computing device. The communication platform receives the input and determines that a step in a workflow is complete. The communication platform identifies a communication channel associated with the workflow based on the input and generates a message to be transmitted via the communication channel, the message providing documentation of completion of a step in the workflow based on the input. In some examples, the communication platform receives additional data associated with the step in the workflow, such as images of an item and/or an environment associated with the step in the workflow and causes the additional data to be presented via the communication channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 30, 2021Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Justin Rushing, Akshay Bakshi, Faisal Yaqub, Michelle Jones
