  • Publication number: 20200106630
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products that are configured to generate a predicted channel add object in an improved system of networked computing devices. The embodiments disclose an apparatus and system that provide channel invite suggestions. The channel invite suggestions comprise recommendations of users to invite to group-based communication channels. To provide the channel-invite suggestions, the group-based communication system generates a user-channel data structure that stores a plurality of values that capture relationships between users and group-based communication channels. The values may capture information regarding membership of a user in a group-based communication channel, starring of a group-based communication channel by a user, a level of activity of a user in a group-based communication channel, and a user's word usage in a group-based communication channel.

  • Publication number: 20190334956
    Abstract: Systems and methods initialize distributed client device membership for new client devices joining a group-based communication channel established for content exchange among a plurality of distributed client device members. The systems and methods comprise aspects for executing a content analysis over the content of the one or more group-based communication channels to identify characterizing terms associated with each group-based communication channel. After the content analysis is performed, systems receive search parameters from a potential new member client device for a group-based communication server. Various systems and methods provide selected search results generated based at least in part on a determination that characterizing terms match one or more of the search parameters to the client device. Those selected results comprise a target that is executable by the client device to join the associated group-based communication channel.
