Differentiated message presentation in a communication platform is described. In an example, a message to be posted to the communication platform can be received, wherein the communication platform is associated with a plurality of users that are permissioned to access content associated with the communication platform. In an example, a first user profile of a first user of the plurality of users can be associated with a first characteristic of the first user and a second user profile of a second user of the plurality of users can be associated with a second characteristic. Techniques described herein enable differentiated presentation of the message, in respective user interfaces of the communication platform, based at least in part on the first characteristic and the second characteristic.

Differentiated message presentation in a communication platform

Techniques for facilitating a digital signature occurrence associated with an object transmitted via a communication channel associated with a group-based communication platform. The object may be created by a user within either the group-based communication platform or a third-party application and transmitted to one or more other users associated with the communication channel via the group-based communication platform. The group-based communication platform may be configured to authenticate a digital signature and, based on a verification of the authenticity, associate the digital signature with the object. The group-based communication platform may cause the digital signature to be presented via an interface associated with the communication channel, such as proximate to or viewable in association with the object.

Generating a legally binding object within a group-based communication system

Draft message object collaboration in a group-based communication platform is described. A request to generate a message object can be received from a first client associated with a first entity of a group-based communication platform. A first instance of a composition user interface, configured to enable a draft of the message object to be generated, can be presented via the first client and a request to add a second entity as a collaborator can be received. A second instance of the composition user interface can be presented via a second client of the second entity. A modification to the draft of the message object can be received and, in response to receiving the modification, the message object can be updated as presented via respective instances of the composition user interface.

Draft message object collaboration in a group-based communication platform

A system, method, and computer-readable media for dividing the content of a user interface for a group-based communication system among a plurality of windows. A parent window may comprise a plurality of panes. A child window may be created from the parent window by an actuation on a pane of the plurality of panes presented by the user interface. Child windows and the parent window may share computer memory. A plurality of windows may be created to divide the content of the user interface. Libraries designed for single window applications may be modified to work with a plurality of windows. The group-based communication system may be implemented via various web technologies.

Multiple windows for a group-based communication system

Securing a group-based communication system may comprise identity verification of a user based on tracking an entity's interactions with a computing device associated with a user profile registered with the group-based communication system. The identity verification techniques may comprise capturing various inputs at a computing device associated with a user profile registered with the group-based communication system and storing and/or transmitting the inputs and/or interaction parameters quantifying features of the inputs to a security component of the group-based communication system. The security component may generate a data structure based at least in part on comparing the interaction parameters to historical interaction parameters and the data structure may be used to generate a trust score for verifying or denying the entity interacting with the computing device.
