Method and systems for generating and sending a hot link associated with a user interface to a device

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) including program code, wherein execution of the program code by one or more processors of a user device is to cause the user device to:

• receive a message comprising a link and assignment information, the assignment information to assign the link to a graphical control element (GCE), and the link comprising instructions to perform an action and instructions for rendering and displaying the link;
• generate a graphical user interface (GUI) to include the GCE to which the link is assigned according to the assignment information;
• and
• in response to activation of the GCE, execute the instructions of the link to perform the action.

A computer system to be employed as a server, the computer system comprising:

• network interface circuitry to:
• receive, from a first user device, a request to generate a link along with information of a set of second user devices to receive the link, and
• transmit a message to the set of second user devices over a wired or wireless network;
• and
• processor circuitry communicatively coupled with the network interface circuitry, the processor circuitry communicatively coupled with the network interface circuitry, the processor circuitry is to:
• in response to detection of a trigger, determine an action to be performed upon activation of the link, wherein activation of the link by individual second user devices of the set of second user devices is to cause the individual second user devices to execute program code to perform the action, and
• generate the message to include the determined action and instructions for rendering and displaying the link at each of the set of second user devices.
