Patent number: 11715144Abstract: A prediction model in a database system may be configured to predict, for a given object instance, a respective probability of acceptance for each of a plurality of recommendations. A determination may be made as to whether the prediction model is associated with sufficient training data to produce predictions at a designated accuracy rate. When it is determined that the prediction model is not associated with sufficient training data, for each of a first set of object instances a respective first message may be sent that includes a respective first one of the recommendations determined based on a static ranking rule applying one or more criteria to one or more object fields associated with the respective object instance. The prediction model may be updated to include additional training data based on a plurality of responses corresponding to a respective first one of the recommendations.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2019Date of Patent: August 1, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Tejas Sanghavi, Marco Casalaina

Patent number: 10101883Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for providing cross-domain communication via a user interface provided in a web browser. One or more servers of a database system receive an indication of a first event message sent from a second user interface component to a first user interface component of the user interface, the first event message comprising a request to perform a first operation. The one or more servers identify a first one or more trusted data network domains for a first application displayed in the first user interface component. The one or more servers determine that the first one or more trusted data network domains comprise a second data network domain for a third party application displayed in the second user interface component. The one or more servers determine that the first operation is a safe operation and perform the first operation.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Marco Casalaina, Jason Ellis, David Yung, Luke Fu, Eric Wulff, Chitra Gulabrani, Sutthipong Thavisomboon, Natalie Doan, Steve Weiss
