A method comprising:
- providing within a hybrid record access application, a selectable option to access an attachment associated with a record, the record being associated with one of a plurality of sandboxes, the hybrid record access application configured to access records associated with the plurality of sandboxes, the plurality of sandboxes configured to prevent data from moving between different sandboxes;
- and
- initiating within the sandbox associated with the record, an application to access the attachment when selection of the selectable option is received.
An electronic device comprising:
- a display;
- a memory storing records associated with a plurality of sandboxes, the sandboxes configured such that data is prevented from moving between different sandboxes;
- and
- a processor coupled with the display and the memory, the processor being configured to:
- provide within a hybrid record access application, a selectable option to access an attachment associated with a record, the record being associated with one of a plurality of sandboxes, the hybrid record access application configured to access records associated with the plurality of sandboxes;
- and
- initiate within the sandbox associated with the record, an application to access the attachment when selection of the selectable option is received.
A processor readable storage medium comprising processor-executable instruction which, when executed, cause a processor to:
- provide within a hybrid record access application, a selectable option to access an attachment associated with a record, the record being associated with one of a plurality of sandboxes, the hybrid record access application configured to access records associated with the plurality of sandboxes;
- and
- initiate within the sandbox associated with the record, an application to access the attachment when selection of the selectable option is received.
