    Abstract: Some techniques are described herein for managing an interaction with a UI element of a respective application in a UI managed by a system process. Such techniques can allow the UI element to be (1) displayed by the system process with content provided by the respective application and (2) interacted with by a user without needing to display a user interface of the respective application. In some examples, an interaction with the UI element is provided to the system process and, via another system process, an action is identified and executed to update the UI element with different information provided by the respective application. Other techniques described herein can allow different endpoints of an application, such as different extensions or the application itself, to handle interactions with information provided by the application depending on a current state of an electronic device, the application, and/or the different extensions.
