Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products for extensible content object workflows. A content management system stores a plurality of content objects. The content management system integrates applications, which integrated applications make modifications to the content objects based on computer-aided invocation of workflows. Upon receipt of a message from a first integrated application indicating an intent to invoke a workflow at a second integrated application, the content management system relays information pertaining to the desired workflow to the second integrated application. The workflow of the second integrated application modifies one or more of the content objects or its metadata or other data associated with the workflow. Selection of the second integrated application can be based on attributes of the content objects, and/or can be based on user interactions within a user interface. Interaction events associated with the workflow performed at the second integrated application are relayed back to the originating application.
