Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for sharing collections of content items in chat sessions. The methods and systems receive a request to share a first content item and present a GUI comprising a first set of options and a second set of options, the first set of options being associated with adding the first content item to a collection of content items that is accessible to a plurality of recipients, the second set of options being associated with sending the first content item to individual recipients. The methods and systems determine a set of target recipients of the first content item and select a content sharing link between a first link to the collection of content items and a second link directly to the first content item. The methods and systems send, to a target recipient, the content sharing link that has been selected.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for providing shortcuts to sharing private collections of content items. The methods and systems receive, by a device associated with a first user, a request to share a first content item with one or more recipients and in response, presenting a plurality of shortcuts, each of the plurality of shortcuts associated with different groups of recipients. The methods and systems receive input that selects a first shortcut of the plurality of shortcuts, the first shortcut being associated with a first group of recipients and, in response, present an option to add the first content item to a collection of content items and share the collection of content items with the first group of recipients.

Abstract: A sender holds a first platform account with an interaction system. The sender selects a content item to be shared with a recipient. In response to determining that a recipient identifier of the recipient is not linked to a platform account, an off-platform communication is transmitted to a second user device associated with the recipient identifier. The off-platform communication is in an electronic format supported by the second user device and contains a user-selectable registration link. In response to detecting establishment of a second platform account linked to the recipient identifier, the recipient is enabled to access the content item on the second user device via a user interface provided by an interaction application. A relationship between the first platform account and the second platform account is established within the interaction system.

Abstract: A method and system for identifying and displaying a messaging application user's top groups based on their activity levels are disclosed. The messaging application tracks messaging interactions initiated by a user to multiple user groups over a predetermined time period. The application assigns a score to each group based on attributes of the interactions such as type, frequency, and recency. The groups are ranked based on the scores, and a subset of top scoring groups is selected. These top groups are displayed in the messaging interface in a dedicated region, allowing quick access to recent highly-engaged groups. The top groups may be displayed alongside individual contacts identified as best friends. Users can customize graphical icons associated with each top group. The techniques rely on observed user interaction patterns to identify meaningful top groups specific to each user.
