Dynamic profile reconciliation in group-based communication systems
Techniques for performing dynamic profile reconciliation in a communication system. A server computing system may identify two or more user profiles corresponding to a same user that is associated with the communication system. The server computing system may integrate historical data associated with the two or more user profiles into a single user profile (e.g., a destination user profile). The historical data may include messages sent and/or received via the two or more user profiles, files associated with the messages, metadata corresponding to each message, and the like. Responsive to combining the two or more user profiles into the single user profile, the server computing system may delete at least one of the two or more user profiles, storing the combined data in association with the single user profile.
