Abstract
A computer system enables data representing an action to be generated automatically or semi-automatically based on data stored in a message thread. The data representing the action may be processed automatically to perform tasks such as generating a notification of the action to be performed. The data representing the action may be stored within the message thread based on which the action data was generated.
