US 11,451,639 B1 · Application integration into user profiles within a communication platform

Abstract

Techniques for providing an enhanced user profile to provide relevant information to a user requesting to view a user profile associated with another user. In an example, a first user submits a request to view a user profile associated with a second user. In response to receiving the request, the communication platform identifies one or more communication objects (e.g., communication channels, direct messaging instances, messages, threads, etc.) and/or one or more applications (third-party applications, first party applications, etc.) associated with the second user and/or the first user. The communication platform causes a display of indicator(s) associated with the communication object(s) and/or application(s) in association with the user profile, such as to enable efficient access to the associated communication object(s) and/or application(s). Additionally, the communication platform can identify additional contacts of the second user and/or inferred characteristics of the second user to present in association with the user profile.

Dependent claims

A method, implemented at least in part by one or more computing devices of a communication platform, comprising:

receiving, from a client associated with a first user account of a first user of the communication platform, a request to view a user profile associated with a second user account of a second user of the communication platform;
based at least in part on the request, identifying a third-party application associated with the first user account and the second user account, wherein the third-party application is identified based at least in part on a determination that interactions between the second user account and the third-party application meet or exceed a threshold level of interactions;
accessing third-party application data associated with a third-party account corresponding to the second user;
and
causing display of a user profile interface via the client, the user profile interface comprising user data associated with the user profile and the third-party application data.

2 more elements

A system comprising:

one or more processors;
and
one or more non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions that, when executed, cause the system to:
receive, from a client associated with a first user account of a first user of a communication platform, a request to view a user profile associated with a second user account of a second user of the communication platform;
based at least in part on the request, identify a third-party application associated with the first user account and the second user account, wherein the third-party application is identified based at least in part on a determination that interactions between the second user account and the third-party application meet or exceed a threshold level of interactions;
access third-party application data associated with a third-party account corresponding to the second user;
and
cause display of a user profile interface via the client, the user profile interface comprising user data associated with the user profile and the third-party application data.

5 more elements

One or more non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to:

receive, from a client associated with a first user account of a first user of a communication platform, a request to view a user profile associated with a second user account of a second user of the communication platform;
based at least in part on the request, identify a third-party application associated with the first user account and the second user account, wherein the third-party application is identified based at least in part on a determination that interactions between the second user account and the third-party application meet or exceed a threshold level of interactions;
access third-party application data associated with a third-party account corresponding to the second user;
and
cause display of a user profile interface via the client, the user profile interface comprising user data associated with the user profile and the third-party application data.
