Abstract
Systems and methods of batched notifications of activities that occur in a web-based collaboration environment are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, for detecting activities occurring in an online collaboration environment, generating a notification event for one or more of the activities, and selecting one or more recipients for each notification event according to criteria determined based on a workspace in which the associated activity was performed in the online collaboration environment. The indications of each notification event are then added to one or more queues associated with the one or more recipients and, upon expiry of a queue timer, the contents of the one or more queues associated with the one or more recipients are sent to the corresponding one or more recipients as batched notifications.
