in response to receiving the request, and based at least in part on the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, generating the shared resource in the group-based communication system.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , the operations further comprising, based at least in part on receiving the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, updating a group-based communication repository to include an indicator indicating that requests to generate shared resources associated with the first organization identifier and the second organization identifier do not require administrative approval, wherein the generating of the shared resource is further based at least in part on the indicator being associated with the group-based communication repository.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , the operations further comprising, based at least in part on receiving the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, generating the shared resource without first generating a candidate request for administrative approval.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the shared resource comprises at least one of a workspace, a communication channel, a direct message, or a data object.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , the operations further comprising causing rendering of an authorization interface to a first client associated with the first organization identifier, wherein the first authorization confirmation is received from the first client via the authorization interface.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the authorization interface comprises at least one of a dialog box, a menu, or a messaging communication.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first authorization confirmation indicates that the request to generate the shared resource does not require administrative approval from a first client associated with the first organization identifier, and further wherein the second authorization confirmation indicates that the request to generate the shared resource does not require another administrative approval from a second client associated with the second organization identifier.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 , the operations further comprising:
receiving a second request to create a second shared resource associated with the first organization identifier and a third organization identifier;
in response to receiving the second request, determining that a third authorization confirmation associated with the third organization identifier is unavailable; and
based at least in part on the third authorization confirmation being unavailable, transmitting an authorization interface to a client associated with the third organization identifier.
9. The apparatus of claim 8 , the operations further comprising:
receiving, from the client, the third authorization confirmation; and
in response to receiving the third authorization confirmation, creating the second shared resource associated with the first organization identifier and the third organization identifier.
10. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receiving, from a computing device of a group-based communication system, a first authorization confirmation related to the group-based communication system, the first authorization confirmation associated with a first organization identifier;
receiving, from another computing device of the group-based communication system, a second authorization confirmation related to the group-based communication system, the second authorization confirmation associated with a second organization identifier that is different than the first organization identifier;
receiving a request to create a shared resource associated with the first organization identifier and the second organization identifier; and
in response to receiving the request, and based at least in part on the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, generating the shared resource in the group-based communication system.
11. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising, based at least in part on receiving the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, updating a group-based communication repository to include an indicator indicating that requests to generate shared resources associated with the first organization identifier and the second organization identifier do not require administrative approval, wherein the generating of the shared resource is further based at least in part on the indicator being associated with the group-based communication repository.
12. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising, based at least in part on receiving the first authorization confirmation and the second authorization confirmation, generating the shared resource without first generating a candidate request for administrative approval.
13. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the shared resource comprises at least one of a workspace, a communication channel, a direct message, or a data object.
14. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising causing rendering of an authorization interface to the computing device associated with the first organization identifier, wherein the first authorization confirmation is received from the computing device via the authorization interface.
15. The computer-implemented method of claim 14 , wherein the authorization interface comprises at least one of a dialog box, a menu, or a messaging communication.
16. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the first authorization confirmation indicates that the request to generate the shared resource does not require administrative approval from a first client associated with the first organization identifier, and further wherein the second authorization confirmation indicates that the request to generate the shared resource does not require another administrative approval from a second client associated with the second organization identifier.
17. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising:
receiving a second request to create a second shared resource associated with the first organization identifier and a third organization identifier;
in response to receiving the second request, determining that a third authorization confirmation associated with the third organization identifier is unavailable; and
based at least in part on the third authorization confirmation being unavailable, transmitting an authorization interface to a client device associated with the third organization identifier.
18. The computer-implemented method of claim 17 , further comprising:
receiving, from the client device, the third authorization confirmation; and
in response to receiving the third authorization confirmation, creating the second shared resource associated with the first organization identifier and the third organization identifier.
