Publication number: 20200073901Abstract: A method includes receiving a query identifying a first entity from a first user interface of a first application of a first content provider. A deep-link index is accessed, and one or more records associated with the first entity of the query are identified. Each identified record from the deep-link index includes an entity-identifier matching an entity-identifier of the first entity, an application-identifier corresponding to a second application of a second content provider specified by the query, and a deep link to a display state of the second application and associated with the first entity. Instructions for presenting a second user interface are sent to a client device responsive to the query, and the second user interface displays content items corresponding to respective deep links of the identified records such that the content items are isolated from the first application.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2019Publication date: March 5, 2020Inventors: Alexander P.

Patent number: 10467213Abstract: A method includes receiving, from a first application via a social plug-in associated with the online social network, a request for content from a second application. The content may be related to an entity associated with the online social network. The first application may be a third party application. The request may include an entity-identifier of the entity, an application-identifier of the first application, and a deep link to the first application including instructions for accessing a display state of the first application associated with the request. The method further includes accessing a deep-link index of the online social network including a plurality of records indexing deep-links to third-party applications, and then generating a record in the deep-link index corresponding to the requested entity. The record may include the entity-identifier of the entity, the application-identifier of the first application, and the deep link to the first application.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2015Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Alexander P.

Patent number: 10162899Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a query input from the first user. The method includes generating a plurality of suggested queries based at least in part on the query input, each suggested query being of a particular query-type of a plurality of query-types. Each suggested query may include one or more snippets, each snippet including contextual information about the suggested query and one or more references to the particular query-type of the suggested query. The method includes sending one or more of the suggested queries and the respective snippets for each suggested query. Each suggested query may be visually distinguished based on the particular query-type of the suggested query, and each suggested query may be selectable to execute a search query corresponding to the suggested query.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Maykel Andreas Louisa Jozef Anna Loomans, Michael Yehuda Rothschild, Kurchi Subhra Hazra

Patent number: 10061489Abstract: A method includes displaying, at a client device of a first user, first content associated with a first application on a user interface of the client device. The first content may be related to an entity associated with an online social network. The method then includes presenting for persistent display a first interactive element associated with a second application on the user interface, and then accessing, upon receiving the first user input selecting the first interactive element, a deep-link index of the online social network to retrieve a deep link to the second application indexed with the entity. The deep link to the second application includes instructions for accessing a display state of the second application associated with the entity. The method further includes executing, at the client device of the first user, the retrieved deep link to present the display state of the second application associated with the entity.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2015Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Alexander P.
