Abstract

Disclosed are various examples for categorization using an organizational hierarchy. In some examples, a client device receives an enterprise map comprising a plurality of user identifiers, each being associated with a hierarchy level of an enterprise hierarchy. Enterprise content is received. The enterprise content includes data associated with a user identifier from the enterprise map. The enterprise content is associated with a category based on a hierarchy level of the user identifier. A user interface is generated to include the enterprise content and a visual design element based on the category.

Claims (48)

1. A system, comprising:

a client device; and

program instructions executable in the client device, wherein the program instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the client device to at least:

receive an enterprise map comprising a plurality of user identifiers, a respective user identifier being associated with a corresponding hierarchy level of a plurality of hierarchy levels of an enterprise hierarchy;

receive enterprise content comprising a plurality of enterprise content items, wherein an enterprise content item specifies a user identifier, wherein the user identifier is one of the plurality of user identifiers;

determine, based on the user identifier specified by the enterprise content item, that the enterprise content item is associated with a particular hierarchy-based category of a plurality of hierarchy-based categories, the particular hierarchy-based category indicating a position of a hierarchy level of the user identifier of the enterprise content item relative to a client hierarchy level of a client user identifier associated with the client device; and

generate, on the client device, a user interface that renders a first subset of the plurality of enterprise content items, and hides a second subset of the plurality of enterprise content items based on a rule that causes the user interface to hide enterprise content items that are identified to be at least a particular number of levels from the client hierarchy level, wherein the enterprise content item is shown using a particular shade assigned to the particular hierarchy-based category and indicates the position of the hierarchy level relative to a client hierarchy level in the enterprise hierarchy.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the particular shade comprises: a monochromatic shade, or a shade of a color.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

receive social media network data comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises a social media user interface.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

receive an email message comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises an email user interface.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

transmit a request for files, wherein the request for files comprises the client hierarchy level associated with the client device; and

receive a file based on the client hierarchy level, the file comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface organizes shared files associated with an enterprise.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of user identifiers comprise at least one of: a plurality of email addresses, and a plurality of user accounts with an enterprise.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

obtain a selection of a user interface element that updates the user interface to show the second subset of the plurality of enterprise content items.

8. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

receiving an enterprise map comprising a plurality of user identifiers, a respective user identifier being associated with a corresponding hierarchy level of a plurality of hierarchy levels of an enterprise hierarchy;

receiving enterprise content comprising a plurality of enterprise content items, wherein an enterprise content item specifies a user identifier, wherein the user identifier is one of the plurality of user identifiers;

determining, based on the user identifier specified by the enterprise content item, that the enterprise content item is associated with a particular hierarchy-based category of a plurality of hierarchy-based categories, the particular hierarchy-based category indicating a position of a hierarchy level of the user identifier of the enterprise content item relative to a client hierarchy level of a client user identifier associated with a client device; and

generating, on the client device, a user interface that renders a first subset of the plurality of enterprise content items, and hides a second subset of the plurality of enterprise content items based on a rule that causes the user interface to hide enterprise content items that are identified to be at least a particular number of levels from the client hierarchy level, wherein the enterprise content item is shown using a particular shade assigned to the particular hierarchy-based category and indicates the position of the hierarchy level relative to a client hierarchy level in the enterprise hierarchy.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein the particular shade comprises a shade of a color.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving social media network data comprising a post or a comment, the social media network data comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises a social media user interface.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

receiving an email message, the email message comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises an email user interface.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

transmitting a request for files, wherein the request for files comprises the client hierarchy level associated with the client device; and

receiving a file based on the client hierarchy level, the file comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface organizes shared files associated with an enterprise.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein the plurality of user identifiers comprise at least one of: a plurality of email addresses, and a plurality of user accounts with an enterprise.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising:

obtaining a selection of a user interface element that updates the user interface to show the second subset of the plurality of enterprise content items.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program instructions executable in a client device, wherein the program instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the client device to at least:

receive an enterprise map comprising a plurality of user identifiers, a respective user identifier being associated with a corresponding hierarchy level of a plurality of hierarchy levels of an enterprise hierarchy;

receive enterprise content comprising a plurality of enterprise content items, wherein an enterprise content item specifies a user identifier, wherein the user identifier is one of the plurality of user identifiers;

determine, based on the user identifier specified by the enterprise content item, that the enterprise content item is associated with a particular hierarchy-based category of a plurality of hierarchy-based categories, the particular hierarchy-based category indicating a position of a hierarchy level of the user identifier of the enterprise content item relative to a client hierarchy level of a client user identifier associated with the client device; and

generate, on the client device, a user interface that renders a first subset of the plurality of enterprise content items, and hides a second subset of the plurality of enterprise content items based on a rule that causes the user interface to hide enterprise content items that are identified to be at least a particular number of levels from the client hierarchy level.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein a particular shade comprises: a monochromatic shade, or a shade of a color.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

receive social media network data comprising a post or a comment, the social media network data comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises a social media user interface.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

receive an email message, the email message comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface comprises an email user interface.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the client device to at least:

transmit a request for files, wherein the request for files comprises the client hierarchy level associated with the client device; and

receive a file based on the client hierarchy level, the file comprising the enterprise content item, wherein the user interface organizes shared files associated with an enterprise.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the plurality of user identifiers comprise at least one of: a plurality of email addresses, and a plurality of user accounts with an enterprise.
