Techniques of relevant content surfacing in a computer productivity platform are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, at an email server of the computer productivity platform, an email having a message body containing content and determining whether the content of the email contains a request to or a commitment by the user. In response to determining that the content of the email contains a request to or a commitment, inserting metadata containing one or more properties of the request or commitment into the email, the metadata. Then, when viewing of the content of the email by the user is detected, the computer productivity platform is queried for additional content using the properties of the request or commitment as keywords. The additional content is then surfaced to the user as being related to the content in the message body of the email.

Relevant content surfacing in computer productivity platforms

A system generates a first data set by executing, in response to occurrence of an event, a data flow configured with a property of a first object of a first data processing system to map the first object to a second object of a second data processing system. The system acquires additional information, including additional properties of the first object and data used by the first and second data processing systems to communicate with other data processing systems, from the first and second data processing systems to map the first object to the second object. The system generates a second data set having a format compatible with the second data processing system based on the first data set and the additional information and sends the second data set to the second data processing system. The system maps other objects using reconfigured data flows.
