Abstract: Techniques described herein are used to support cross-platform data sharing, access, and management between a communication process flow management platform and a communication platform. Specifically, techniques described herein support a communication process flow management platform detecting an event associated with a communication process flow that control electronic communications between a tenant and a set of users. The platform may generate a data object corresponding to the event. The data object may include metadata associated with the event. The platform may transmit, to a communication platform, a request that includes the data object. The request may be configured to cause an entry associated with the event to be posted into the communication platform.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, devices, and computer program products are described. A communication platform may receive a first request indicating a first data object comprising metadata associated with an update to an action of a communication process flow. The metadata may indicate that a user with particular permissions is to approve the update. The communication platform may post an entry displaying the metadata and configured to receive an indication of approval of the update from the user. The communication platform may receive an indication of the approval from the user, for example via a user interface component. The communication platform may generate a second data object indicating the action and the user, ensuring that the update was successfully approved, and transmit a second request to a communication process flow management service supporting the communication process flow, the second request including the second object and configured to activate the update.

Abstract: A method for data processing that includes receiving, from a service that manages communications between a communication process flow management service and a communication platform, a request indicating metadata from the communication platform, information associated with a tenant of a multi-tenant system, a user identifier, or a combination thereof. The method may further include performing, based on the request, one or more actions on a communication process flow that controls electronic communications between the tenant and a set of users corresponding to the tenant. The method may further include generating a data object related to the communication process flow based on performing the one or more actions. The method may further include transmitting, to the communication platform, a message that is configured to cause posting of the data object into a communication channel of the communication platform.

Abstract: A method for data processing that includes receiving an indication of a configuration for a first action of a communication process flow that controls electronic communications between a tenant of a multi-tenant system and a first set of users associated with the tenant.
