  • Publication number: 20220109650
    Abstract: Snippets of content associated with a communication platform are described. In an example, based at least in part on a determination, by the communication platform, that a user of the communication platform is permitted to access one or more snippets of content provided by one or more other users of the communication platform, causing one or more user interface elements associated with the one or more snippets of content to be presented via a user interface of a user computing device of the user. The communication platform can receive, from the user computing device, a request to view a snippet of content of the one or more snippets of content and can cause the snippet of content to be presented by the user computing device via the user interface associated with the communication platform.

  • Publication number: 20220109707
    Abstract: Media, methods, and systems are disclosed for ad hoc, ambient, synchronous multimedia collaboration in a group-based communication system. Embodiments of the invention provide a way for users to quickly discover and initiate real-time collaboration sessions among groups of other users without the burden and overhead of a conventional call or video meeting. Users can quickly and easily discover and switch into and out of these synchronous multimedia collaboration sessions at any time, without disrupting the sessions for other participating users. This enables a diverse set of users to experience a rich multimedia collaboration session collaboration as a convenient ad hoc forum rather than a burdensome scheduled event.

  • Publication number: 20220070013
    Abstract: Modifying direct message (DM) communication membership is described. A communication platform can receive, in association with a DM communication associated with a first group of users and from a user computing device of a user of the first group of users, a first request to modify the first group of users. The communication platform can send, to the user computing device, a second request to designate whether to include context data associated with the DM communication in a new channel. Based at least partly on receiving an indication to include at least a portion of the context data associated with the DM communication in the new channel, the communication platform can generate the new channel, wherein the new channel is associated with a second group of users different than the first group of users, and at least the portion of the context data is associated with the new channel.

  • Patent number: 11140203
    Abstract: Medium, method and system for ad hoc, ambient, synchronous multimedia collaboration in a group-based communication system. Embodiments of the invention provide a way for users to quickly and start a real-time collaboration among a group of peers without the burden and overhead of a conventional call or video meeting. Users can quickly and easily join and leave these synchronous multimedia collaboration sessions at any time, without disrupting the session for other users. This enables the user to experience the collaboration as a convenient forum rather than a burdensome scheduled event.
