Abstract: Methods, media, and systems are disclosed for adding new users to a channel in a group-based communication system. The system receives a request to add new users to a channel. The system adds a new user by classifying the new user's email address domain as internal or external. If the domain is internal, the first user is added to the channel as a member, and if the domain is external, the user is prompted for a type of access for the new user. If the new user's access type is guest, the new user is added to the channel as a guest. If the type of access is shared, the channel is shared with an organization associated with the domain, and the new user is added as a member of the channel that has been shared.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to an improved group-based communication apparatus that is configured to efficiently manage channel title associated with group-based communication channels in a group-based communication system. The group-based communication apparatus is configured to determine and recommend channel title suggestions in association with the creation or renaming of group-based communication channels. The recommended channel title suggestions are determined based at least in part on a group-defined format protocol. The group-based communication apparatus also may be configured to utilize other data analytics (e.g., user profile data, group channel data, channel title data, channel title count data, channel title recency data, channel activity data, and/or the like) to inform the determination of recommended channel title suggestions. Additionally, the channel title data may be combined with other data of the group-based communication workspace to assemble one or more work graph data structures as discussed in detail herein.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for detecting active usage of a group-based communication system having a group-based communication interface. The apparatus includes a memory and processor(s) configured to detect group-based activity data stored in the memory of the apparatus. The processor is further configured to determine an active user subset of a group-based communication system user group based on the group-based activity data. The processor is further configured to compare the active user subset to a predetermined user activity threshold. The processor is further configured to, in circumstances where the active user subset satisfies the predetermined user activity threshold, render a trigger component to the group-based communication interface. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a group-based communication system that is configured to more efficiently manage resource sharing requests. In particular, in some embodiments, the group-based communication system is configured to enable admin users to use an external service, such as an external approval provisioning service, that is separate and distinct from the group-based communication system to manage group-based communication resource sharing requests. In other embodiments, the group-based communication system is configured to allow communication with external users and to trigger new user onboarding protocols through the ingestion of external user directories associated with a sponsor user.
