Database systems and methods are provided for providing record data to an application extension associated with a native application at a client device. One method involves a cross-platform service receiving, from the native application, a query for record data associated with a record at a database system on behalf of the application extension, determining a data source for retrieving the record data based at least in part on a configuration of the native application, converting the query into a transformed query having a different format associated with the identified data source, retrieving the record data from the identified data source using the transformed query, and providing the record data to the application extension via the native application, wherein the application extension is configurable to generate a component of a graphical user interface display using the record data.

Database systems and client-side query transformation methods

Database systems and methods are provided for providing record data to an application extension associated with a native application at a client device. One method involves a cross-platform service at the client device receiving a plurality of requests for data for one or more records at the database system from the native application, aggregating a subset of the plurality of requests into a batched request, providing the batched request to the database system over a network, receiving a batched response to the batched request from the database system over the network, and for each request of the subset of the plurality of requests of the batched request, mapping a respective data set of the batched response to a respective request and providing the respective data set to the application extension in response to the respective request via the native application.

Database systems and methods of batching data requests for application extensions

Database systems and methods are provided for initiating an action at a database system by an instance of a native application at a client device coupled to the database system over a network. One method involves downloading, to a data storage element at the client device, metadata indicative of update criteria for a configuration associated with the instance of the native application from the database system over the network, monitoring, by a service associated with the native application at the client device, a context associated with the client device with respect to the update criteria, and when the context associated with the client device satisfies the update criteria, automatically providing, by the service to the database system over the network, an indication that the update criteria is satisfied to automatically initiate the action at the database system in accordance with the configuration associated with the native application.
