Expandable data object management and indexing architecture for intersystem data exchange compatibility
A group-based communication platform is configured to ascertain the relatedness of various work objects shared among users of the group-based communication platform. Moreover, the group-based communication platform may further receive and process work objects originating from non-users of the group-based communication platform, thereby further expanding the utility of the determined relatedness between work objects. These work objects (or encrypted representations of these work objects) may be indexed and stored in association with the group-based communication platform, thereby enabling users to search for and retrieve work objects originating from a plurality of work object sources simultaneously, and based on various characteristics of those work objects and the determined interrelatedness between various work objects.
1. A method for determining topical expertise of a user, the method comprising:
receiving one or more resources from an external resource, wherein the one or more resources comprise resource metadata and body content data;
assigning one or more topics to each of the one or more resources based at least in part on the resource metadata and the body content data;
determining a subset of the one or more resources associated with a user identifier for the user and topic metadata associated with a topic based on one or more interactions of the user with the one or more resources; and
establishing the topical expertise associated with the user identifier based on the one or more topics assigned to each of the one or more resources, the subset of the one or more resources associated with the user identifier, and the topic metadata associated with the topic.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more resources is one or more of a message, an event, a file, or an email.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a resource of the one or more resources is the file, and wherein the resource metadata comprises at least one of: a file name, a title, a subject, an author, an editing user of the file, an edit time of the file, or a creation date of the file.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining one or more other users associated with at least one of the one or more topics.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more topics are assigned to the one or more resources further based in part on received user indication of the one or more topics as relevant to the one or more resources.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating a work graph identifying relationships between the one or more resources, wherein establishing the topical expertise is further based in part on the relationships identified between the one or more resources.
7. The method of claim 1 ,
wherein the one or more topics are searchable within a group-based communication system of which the user is a group-based communication system user, and
wherein the one or more resources associated with a searched topic are presented with the searched topic.
8. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform a method for determining topical expertise of a user, the method comprising:
receiving one or more resources from an external resource, wherein the one or more resources comprise resource metadata and body content data;
assigning one or more topics to each of the one or more resources based at least in part on the resource metadata and the body content data;
determining a subset of the one or more resources associated with a user identifier for the user and topic metadata associated with a topic based on one or more interactions of the user with the one or more resources; and
establishing the topical expertise associated with the user identifier based on the one or more topics assigned to each of the one or more resources, the subset of the one or more resources associated with the user identifier, and the topic metadata associated with the topic.
9. The media of claim 8 , wherein the one or more resources is one or more of a message, an event, a file, or an email.
10. The media of claim 9 , wherein a resource of the one or more resources is the file, and wherein the resource metadata comprises at least one of: a file name, a title, a subject, an author, an editing user of the file, an edit time of the file, or a creation date of the file.
11. The media of claim 8 , further comprising:
determining one or more other users associated with at least one of the one or more topics.
12. The media of claim 8 , wherein the one or more topics are assigned to the one or more resources further based in part on received user indication of the one or more topics as relevant to the one or more resources.
13. The media of claim 8 , further comprising:
generating a work graph identifying relationships between the one or more resources, wherein establishing the topical expertise is further based in part on the relationships identified between the one or more resources.
14. The media of claim 8 ,
wherein the one or more topics are searchable within a group-based communication system of which the user is a group-based communication system user, and
wherein the one or more resources associated with a searched topic are presented with the searched topic.
15. A system for determining topical expertise of a user, the system comprising: at least one data store;
at least one processor; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform a method for determining the topical expertise of the user, the method comprising:
receiving one or more resources from an external resource, wherein the one or more resources comprise resource metadata and body content data;
assigning one or more topics to each of the one or more resources based at least in part on the resource metadata and the body content data;
determining a subset of the one or more resources associated with a user identifier for the user and topic metadata associated with a topic based on one or more interactions of the user with the one or more resources; and
establishing the topical expertise associated with the user identifier based on the one or more topics assigned to each of the one or more resources, the subset of the one or more resources associated with the user identifier, and the topic metadata associated with the topic.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the one or more resources is one or more of a message, an event, a file, or an email.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein a resource of the one or more resources is the file, and wherein the resource metadata comprises at least one of: a file name, a title, a subject, an author, an editing user of the file, an edit time of the file, or a creation date of the file.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein the one or more topics are assigned to the one or more resources further based in part on received user indication of the one or more topics as relevant to the one or more resources.
19. The system of claim 15 , wherein the method further comprises:
generating a work graph identifying relationships between the one or more resources, wherein establishing the topical expertise is further based in part on the relationships identified between the one or more resources.
20. The system of claim 15 ,
wherein the one or more topics are searchable within a group-based communication system of which the user is a group-based communication system user, and
wherein the one or more resources associated with a searched topic are presented with the searched topic.
