US 12,113,866 B2 · Apparatuses, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products for improved multi-user channel management

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for improvements in managing connection channels for multiple associated users. As connection channel changes occur for one or more users, various connection channels are updated such that appropriate functionality is accessible as determined based on aspects of the connection channel change. Example embodiments provide for establishing, with an electronic data management system, a connection channel associated with processing a shared electronic data object, where the connection channel is established associated with a first user data object; and causing rendering of a user interface that provides access to first functionality via the electronic data management system, and receiving an indication of a connection channel change, and causing updated rendering, based on the connection channel change and in response to receiving the indication of the connection channel change, of the user interface to provide access to updated functionality via the electronic data management system.

Dependent claims

An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory having computer-coded instructions stored thereon that, in execution with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:

establish a plurality of connection channels associated with a plurality of user data objects, each connection channel enabling access to functionality associated with a shared electronic data object via one of a plurality of computing devices;
detect, for a first user data object of the plurality of user data objects, a connection channel change associated with a first connection channel corresponding to a first computing device;
maintain, via at least one of the plurality of connection channels, access to the shared electronic data object during the connection channel change;
determine, based on the connection channel change, that a device capability is available;
and
update, based on the connection channel change, the functionality associated with the shared electronic data object for at least one of the plurality of connection channels to enable use of the device capability.

establishing a plurality of connection channels associated with a plurality of user data objects, each connection channel enabling access to functionality associated with a shared electronic data object via one of a plurality of computing devices;
detecting, for a first user data object of the plurality of user data objects, a connection channel change associated with a first connection channel corresponding to a first computing device;
maintaining, via at least one of the plurality of connection channels, access to the shared electronic data object during the connection channel change;
determining, based on the connection channel change, that a device capability is available;
and
updating, based on the connection channel change, the functionality associated with the shared electronic data object for at least one of the plurality of connection channels to enable use of the device capability.

3 more elements

A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer program code stored thereon that, in execution with at least one processor, configures the computer program product to:

establish a plurality of connection channels associated with a plurality of user data objects, each connection channel enabling access to functionality associated with a shared electronic data object via one of a plurality of computing devices;
detect, for a first user data object of the plurality of user data objects, a connection channel change associated with a first connection channel corresponding to a first computing device;
maintain, via at least one of the plurality of connection channels, access to the shared electronic data object during the connection channel change;
determine, based on the connection channel change, that a device capability is available;
and
update, based on the connection channel change, the functionality associated with the shared electronic data object for at least one of the plurality of connection channels to enable use of the device capability.
