File Storage Method and Apparatus for Instant Communication Messages

1 . A method implemented by one or more computing devices, the method comprising:

obtaining an instant communication message received by an instant communication application;

determining that a file is included in the instant communication message; and

storing the file in a cloud storage space corresponding to the instant communication application.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a message receiving window of the instant communication application to which the file belongs; and

informing the cloud storage space about information of the message receiving window, to cause the file to be stored in a storage space corresponding to the message receiving window in the cloud storage space.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein:

when the message receiving window corresponds to an organizational group, the file is stored in a shared storage space corresponding to the organizational group in the cloud storage space; and

when the message receiving window corresponds to an individual or a non-organizational group, the file is stored in a personal storage space corresponding to a currently logged-in user in the cloud storage space.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

recording information of the file into a historical message file of the instant communication application; and

obtaining the file from the cloud storage space based on the information of the file and presenting the file in a historical message display page of the instant communication application when the historical message file is read and read content includes the information of the file.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying a stored file corresponding to any one group in the cloud storage space and performing management of the stored file that is displayed in response to the instant communication application receiving a file management command for the any one group and a currently logged-in user having a management privilege on the any one group.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a notification message returned by the cloud storage space, the notification message being related to a file updating event that occurs in a storage space corresponding to any one group in the cloud storage space; and

displaying the notification message in a message receiving window of the any one group.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the notification message includes at least one of:

triggering user information of the file updating event, updated file information of the file updating event, or updated operation information of the file updating event.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the instant communication application is an enterprise instant communication application.

9 . One or more computer-readable media storing executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:

determining a file received by an instant communication application, the file being included in an instant communication message received by the instant communication application; and

storing the file into a cloud storage space corresponding to the instant communication application.

10 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 9 , the acts further comprising:

determining a message receiving window of the instant communication application to which the file belongs based on a notification message of the instant communication application; and

storing the file into a storage space corresponding to the message receiving window in the cloud storage space.

11 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 10 , wherein storing the file into the storage space corresponding to the message receiving window in the cloud storage space comprises:

storing the file in a shared storage space corresponding to an organizational group in the cloud storage space when the message receiving window corresponds to the organizational group; and

storing the file in a personal storage space corresponding to a currently logged-in user in the cloud storage space when the message receiving window corresponds to an individual or a non-organizational group.

12 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 9 , the acts further comprising:

receiving a file management command for any one group; and

performing management of a stored file corresponding to the any one group in the cloud storage space according to the file management command when an initiating user of the file management command possesses a management privilege on the any one group.

13 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 12 , the acts further comprising determining that the initiating user possesses the management privilege when the initiating user is a member of the any one group.

14 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 9 , the acts further comprising sending a corresponding notification message to the instant communication application for displaying in a message receiving window that corresponds to any one group in the instant communication application, in response to an occurrence of a file updating event in a storage space corresponding to the any one group in the cloud storage space.

15 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 14 , wherein the notification message includes at least one of: triggering user information of the file updating event, updated file information of the file updating event, or updated operation information of the file updating event.

16 . The one or more computer-readable media of claim 9 , wherein the instant communication application is an enterprise instant communication application.

17 . An apparatus comprising:

one or more processors;

memory;

a receiving unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to receive a notification message from a cloud storage space that corresponds to an instant communication application, the notification message being related to an occurrence of a file updating event in a storage space of the cloud storage space corresponding to any one group; and

a display unit stored in the memory and executable by the one or more processors to present the notification message in a message receiving window of the any one group.

18 . The apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the notification message includes at least one of: triggering user information of the file updating event, updated file information of the file updating event, or updated operation information of the file updating event.

19 . The apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the instant communication application is an enterprise instant communication application.

20 . The apparatus of claim 17 , wherein the file updating event comprises one of adding, deleting or modifying a file.
