Techniques are disclosed for processing a workflow campaign. In some embodiments, a message processing service receives a first message that corresponds to a user arriving at a first node of the workflow campaign from a first message queue. The message processing service causes one or more actions associated with the first node to be performed with respect to the user. In addition, the message processing service determines that the first user should be progressed from the first node to a second node of the workflow campaign. The message processing service generates a second message that corresponds to the user arriving at the second node and determines a second message queue that is associated with the second node. The message processing service progresses the user from the first node to the second node by transmitting the second message to the second message queue.

Some of the electronic messages transmitted post-purchase to the purchaser of a gift may include content that is of interest to the gift recipient. However, not all of the content in a message suitable for the purchaser might be suitable for a message to the gift recipient. In some embodiments, content may be obscured in a message for a given recipient. The obscuring may be implemented through at least one of: hiding, omitting, masking/obfuscating, or modifying the content presented. In some embodiments, a message is generated without having regard to the possible message recipients, and includes fields tagged to associate each field with a respective one or more recipients. For each recipient, a message is generated and transmitted in which the content that does not have a tag associated with that recipient is obscured.

Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant in a messaging environment are provided. In one example process, a graphical user interface (GUI) having a plurality of previous messages between a user of the electronic device and the digital assistant can be displayed on a display. The plurality of previous messages can be presented in a conversational view. User input can be received and in response to receiving the user input, the user input can be displayed as a first message in the GUI. A contextual state of the electronic device corresponding to the displayed user input can be stored. The process can cause an action to be performed in accordance with a user intent derived from the user input. A response based on the action can be displayed as a second message in the GUI.

Systems and methods disclosed herein provide context-based application suggestions to a user in real time. A user device can identify a keyword displayed in an application, such as an email application. The user device can request a card from a connector external to the user device. The connector can identify an application that relates to the keyword and determine a current installation status for the application with respect to the user device. The connector can query a management server at which the user device is enrolled to request the installation status. If the application is not installed on the user device, the connector can instruct the user device to prompt the user to install the application. If the application is installed, the connector can instruct the user device to prompt the user to launch the installed application.

Example embodiments include a controlled content repository, wherein the controlled content repository is accessible according to an access protocol, wherein the access protocol comprises at least one set of access rules, wherein the access protocol enables determining if first data associated with a first object and second data associated with a second object can be made available to a first computing device; a data structure for storing a first object and a second object; and a controlling computing device, in communication with the controlled content repository, for providing the first data associated with the first object and the second data associated with the second object to the first computing device after determining that the first data associated with the first object and the second data associated with the second object is authorized to be made available to the first computing device in accordance with the access protocol.

Generation of filtering rules for incoming messages can be activated by a user through a gesture-based input. When the user activates filtering rule generation, the message management service can cause a user device to display a prompt requesting additional data to be used to generate the filtering rule. The gesture can be a swipe and hold gesture, where the swipe is associated with an action (archiving, deleting, deferring, or adding the message to a list), and the swipe and hold action can activate filtering rule generation associated with the action.

It is proposed a method and system to improve the security of electronic messages exchange between two or more users. The proposed electronic messaging mechanism allows guaranteeing the integrity of a message exchange (i.e., no message has been added, modified, reordered, nor removed from the message exchange), as well as its non-repudiation (i.e., users are univocally associated with the message exchange and cannot deny being authors of the messages they sent), using a local or external blockchain.

Described embodiments generally relate to a communications system comprising a first message broker configured to receive a request message from a messaging application executed by a customer computing device, the first message broker being a universal message broker adapted to receive messages from a plurality of different messaging applications; a message processing module configured to receive the request message from the first message broker and to interpret the request message to determine a sub-system of a vendor computing system to which the request message is directed; a first formatter configured to receive the request message from the message processing module, and to format the request message to match the format expected by the determined sub-system; and a second message broker configured to receive the formatted message from the first formatter and to send the formatted message to the determined sub-system.

The present disclosure generally relates to managing receipt and/or transmission of content.

In various embodiments, a scheduling application automatically determines the timing of linearly dependent events. In operation, the scheduling application detects that a first event included in an original scheduled sequence of events has not completed by a scheduled completion time based on a current time. The scheduling application then determines that a second event included in the original scheduled sequence of events has a dependency on the completion of the first event. Subsequently, the scheduling application updates one or more temporal properties associated with the second event based on the current time to generate a third event. The scheduling application then generates, via a processor, a modified scheduled sequence of events that includes the third event instead of the second event. Advantageously, automatically adjusting the timing of linear dependent events based on the current time reduces inefficiencies associated with conventional scheduling techniques.
