Publication number: 20250047508Abstract: Permission control and management for messaging application bots is described. A method can include providing a messaging application, on a first computing device associated with a first user, to enable communication between the first user and another user, and detecting, at the messaging application, a user request. The method can also include programmatically determining that an action in response to the user request requires access to data associated with the first user, and causing a permission interface to be rendered in the messaging application, the permission interface enabling the first user to approve or prohibit access to the data associated with the first user. The method can include accessing the data associated with the first user and performing the action in response to the user request, upon receiving user input from the first user indicating approval of the access to the data associated with the first user.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Applicant: Google LLCInventors: Shelbian Fung, Richard Dunn, Anton Volkov, Adam Rodriguez

Patent number: 10798028Abstract: Systems, methods and computer readable media for bot interaction are described. For example, some implementations can include a computer-executed method including providing a messaging application, on a first computing device associated with a first user, to enable communication between the first user and at least one other user. The method can also include detecting, at the messaging application, a user request, and programmatically determining that an operation in response to the user request requires sharing of data associated with the first user.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2017Date of Patent: October 6, 2020Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Shelbian Fung, Erika Palmer, Amit Fulay, Anton Volkov, Ori Gershony, Jeremy Newton-Smith, Ryan Palmer, Mark Chang
