Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer-readable storage media for providing access to an online social network. The online social network can be specific to an organization having one or more internal users. In some implementations, a request message is received from a requesting user to access social network data of the online social network. The requesting user is identified as an external user of the organization, and it is determined that the requesting user has an authorized status. Access to only a portion of the social network data is provided to the authorized requesting user.

Abstract: A system and method of identifying users of a multi-tenant database and application service is provided. The system and method is configured to generate a list of contacts from a contact database of a multi-tenant database and application service. Each contact in the list of contacts is sent a message that includes a link to web site that includes a query. Specifically, each contact visiting the web site is queried to determine if the contact is a user of a multi-tenant database and application service. Additionally, contacts are queried to determine if they are an administrator user, and if not, who is an associated administrator user. The contact database is updated to indicate contacts that are users of the multi-tenant database and application service when approved of by the associated administrator.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for providing access to communities of users in an online social network. In some implementations, a server is configured to identify a user identity (ID), received from a computing device, as one of a plurality of first user identities (IDs) of first users belonging to a first community maintained on behalf of a first organization by a social networking system. The computing device can then be provided access to the first community. When a request to access a second community maintained on behalf of a second organization is received from the computing device, the user ID can be identified as one of a plurality of second user IDs of second users belonging to the second community. The computing device can then be provided access to the second community.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable storage media for providing communities of users in an online social network. In some implementations, a plurality of user identities (IDs) is maintained on one or more storage media. The user IDs include first user IDs identifying first users belonging to a first community associated with a first organization and second user IDs identifying second users belonging to a second community. A server receives a request to access the second community from a computing device associated with a user. When it is determined that the computing device has established access to the first community, the one or more storage media can be accessed to determine that the user ID is one of the second user IDs. Then, social network data available to the second users can be sent to the computing device.
