Abstract: A system in which an event manager executes a multitenant computing platform. The event manager obtains a first domain-specific event indicating a user request to perform operations associated with a particular tenant's domain object. Information for the domain object associated with the domain-specific event is retrieved from a tenant database, the information including a domain object definition and instructions defining its behaviors. A protected event execution environment (sandbox) is generated on the multitenant computing platform implementing restrictions on execution of the domain object's behavior instructions. The restrictions are specific to the combination of the user and the domain object. Execution of the instructions is initiated in the protected event execution environment.

Abstract: Action flow fragment management includes executing a parent action flow including multiple steps. At least two steps are distinct pages of a web application. During execution of the parent action flow, an action flow fragment expression is obtained and executed using data gathered from a data source to obtain an action flow fragment identifier. An action flow fragment corresponding to the action flow fragment identifier is selected and executed. When execution of the action flow fragment completes, execution of the parent action flow continues.

Abstract: Disclosed are hybrid authentication systems and methods that enable users to seamlessly sign-on between cloud-based services and on-premises systems. A cloud-based authentication service receives login credentials from a user and delegates authentication to an on-premises authentication service proxy. The login credentials can be passed by the cloud-based authentication service to the on-premises authentication service proxy, for instance, as an access token in an authentication header. The access token can be a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Web Token (JWT) token that is digitally signed using JSON Web Signature. Some embodiments utilize a tunnel connection through which the cloud-based authentication service communicates with the on-premises authentication service proxy. Some embodiments leverage an on-premises identity management system for user management and authentication.

Abstract: A system having an off-premises proxy server residing in a cloud computing environment and backend servers residing in an enterprise computing environment are provided. Requests received by the off-premises proxy server for access to a first, non-publicly accessible backend server are routed to a tunnel server which stores the request and waits to be polled by a tunnel agent connected to the first backend server. When the tunnel server is polled, the request is forwarded through an HTTP tunnel to the tunnel agent, which forwards it to the backend server for processing. Responsive information is returned to the tunnel agent, which forwards it through the HTTP tunnel to the tunnel server and returned through the off-premises proxy server to the remote application. Requests for access to a first, publicly accessible backend server are routed by the off-premises proxy server directly to the backend server for processing and return of responsive information.

Abstract: In general, the disclosed technology relates to a method for generating a web application. The method includes selecting a webpage in the web application and implementing a custom user interface (UI) action on the webpage. Implementing the custom UI action on the webpage may include creating a hidden component on the webpage, associating a custom UI action with the hidden component, specifying at least one input for the hidden component based on the custom UI action, specifying at least one target output for the hidden component based on the custom UI action, and associating the hidden component with a custom UI action trigger event. The method further includes deploying the web application after implementing the custom UI action on the webpage.

Abstract: A method and system for communication using published events. Specifically, the disclosed method and system entail implementing a publication-subscription paradigm to enable communication event exchange in a device-independent manner. The publication-subscription paradigm may also enable communication event exchange in real-time, thereby avoiding web traffic intensive polling that often leads to server-overloading.

Abstract: In general, the technology relates to a method for displaying objects on a webpage. The method includes receiving a request to transition to the webpage in a web application from a device and in response to the request: obtaining a set of object identifiers, providing the set of object identifiers to a link relationship manager and receiving, from the link relationship manager, a set of link relationships. The method further includes providing the set of link relationships and a link relationship evaluator to the device, where the link relationship evaluator only permits objects that are associated with a link relationship from the set of link relationships to be displayed on the device.

Abstract: Event based validation includes detecting a user interface (UI) event in a page of a web application, and identifying a event subscriber of multiple event subscribers to the UI event. The event subscriber defines a validation condition, which is tested. When the validation condition is satisfied, an action, defined by the event subscriber is performed.

Abstract: A method for creating processes in a software application. The method includes obtaining an activity fragment. The activity fragment includes an activity fragment name and an activity fragment configuration. The method further includes obtaining a process specification specifying an activity, and obtaining activity configuration instructions. The activity configuration instructions specify inclusion of the activity fragment in the activity. The method also includes building, based on the process specification, a process. Building the process includes associating the activity fragment with the activity. In addition, the method includes deploying the software application, including the process.
