Abstract

Creating a new channel based on a thread or an object associated with a communication channel is described. A communication platform can receive, in association with a thread or an object, a first request to create a new channel based on the thread or the object. The communication platform can identify characteristics (e.g., users, context data, permissions data, etc.) associated with the thread or the object and can create the new channel based on first characteristics associated with the thread or the object. In some examples, the communication platform can receive, from a requesting user, a second request to associate second characteristics with the new channel. The communication platform can thus create the new channel based on the second characteristics.
