[0032] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0033] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0034] Figure 1 An exemplary system architecture 100 is shown, in which embodiments of the social messaging method of this application can be applied.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, system architecture 100 may include devices 101, 102, 103, 104 and network 105. Network 105 is used as a medium to provide communication links between devices 101, 102, 103, and 104. Network 105 may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless target communication links, or fiber optic cables, etc.

[0036] Devices 101, 102, 103, and 104 can be hardware or software that supports network connectivity to provide various network services. When a device is hardware, it can be various electronic devices, including but not limited to smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktop computers, and servers. In this case, as hardware, it can be implemented as a distributed device group consisting of multiple devices, or as a single device. When a device is software, it can be installed in the electronic devices listed above. In this case, as software, it can be implemented as, for example, multiple software programs or software modules used to provide distributed services, or as a single software program or software module. No specific limitations are made here.

[0037] In practice, devices can provide corresponding network services by installing appropriate client or server applications. After installing a client application, the device can function as a client in network communication. Similarly, after installing a server application, it can function as a server in network communication.

[0038] As an example, in Figure 1 In this diagram, devices 101, 102, and 103 are terminals, while device 104 is a server. Specifically, devices 101, 102, and 103 can be clients with social applications installed, while device 104 can be a backend server providing services to the social applications.

[0039] It should be noted that the social information distribution method provided in this application embodiment can be executed by devices 101, 102, 103, and 104.

[0040] It should be understood that Figure 1 The number of networks and devices shown is merely illustrative. Any number of networks and devices can be included depending on implementation needs.

[0041] Continue to refer to Figure 2The diagram illustrates a flow 200 of a first embodiment of a social messaging method according to this application. This social messaging method may include the following steps:

[0042] Step 201: Receive the social information retrieval request sent by the first user and determine the second user to whom the social information retrieval request is directed.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first user can use the terminal they are using (e.g., Figure 1 The entities that execute the method of sending social information using devices 101, 102, and 103 (as shown) Figure 1 The device 104, which is a server, sends a social information acquisition request to at least one second user. The social information acquisition request also includes information such as the type and time range of the social information to be acquired, so that after the execution entity determines the second user based on the social information acquisition request, it can determine the specific content of the social information of the second user that the first user wants to acquire based on the information included therein.

[0044] The second user can be a specific user directly specified by the first user who has a friend interaction relationship with the first user, or a user who has not established a friend relationship with the first user and is selected based on the social preferences of users included in the first user's user information and / or social information.

[0045] In some embodiments, the social information delivery method further includes: receiving a user acquisition request sent by the first user and returning a second user list to the first user, wherein the user acquisition request includes at least the social preferences of the first user, and the second user list includes at least one second user that matches the social preferences.

[0046] Specifically, the first user can generate a user acquisition request based on their social preferences and the type of second user they wish to find, and send the request to the aforementioned execution entity. Upon receiving the user acquisition request from the first terminal, the execution entity searches for second users based on the social preferences and other information included in the request. After identifying at least one second user matching the social preferences, the entity generates a list of second users and returns it to the first user. This allows the first user to use the list to identify second users with whom they wish to engage in social interaction and acquire social information. In this way, the first user is provided with a larger number of high-quality second users, expanding their social channels and enriching their social experience.

[0047] Step 202: Obtain the social information uploaded by the second user.

[0048] In this embodiment, after determining the second user based on the social information acquisition request in step 201, the social information uploaded by the second user is acquired. This social information also includes locked social information, meaning that some content in the social information is locked. This locked social information can only be sent to and acquired by the first user after authorization by the second user. The locked social information included in the social information can lock some or all of the content in the social information uploaded by the second user according to the second user's instructions. In practice, the above-mentioned execution entity can also preset the locking of social information of specific categories and contents based on the category and specific content of the social information, so as to protect the information of the second user.

[0049] In practice, this social information is usually information that a second user pre-configures, publishes, and displays, such as user status information, dynamic information, and Moments information in instant messaging tools.

[0050] It should be noted that the social information uploaded by the second user can be obtained directly from the local storage device by the aforementioned executing entity, or it can be obtained from a non-local storage device (e.g., Figure 1 The information can be obtained from devices 101, 102, and 103 shown. The local storage device can be a data storage module located within the aforementioned execution entity, such as a server hard drive. In this case, the social information uploaded by the second user can be quickly retrieved locally. The non-local storage device can also be any other electronic device configured to store data, such as the terminal used by the second user. In this case, the aforementioned execution entity can obtain the required social information by sending a retrieval command to the electronic device.

[0051] Step 203: In response to the fact that the target social information requested in the social information acquisition request is locked social information, forward the social information acquisition request to the second user.

[0052] In this embodiment, when the target information requested in the social information acquisition request sent by the first user is the locked social information in the social information of the second user, the response is made by forwarding the social information acquisition request of the first user to the second user, so that the second user can determine whether to grant the first user the corresponding permission to acquire the locked social information based on the content included in the social information.

[0053] In some embodiments, the aforementioned executing entity may also generate corresponding authorization inquiry information based on the first user's social information acquisition request and the first user's user information, so that the second user can better determine whether to grant the first user permission to acquire locked social information based on the user information included in the authorization inquiry information. The first user information includes at least identity information, unique identifier, and other information used to indicate the identity of the first user, and may also include the first user's social preferences, which can help the second user understand the first user and assist in making decisions.

[0054] Similarly, after the aforementioned executing entity has independently forwarded the social information acquisition request, it can also query the first user's identity information based on the identity information returned by the second user to achieve a similar purpose.

[0055] Furthermore, in embodiments where the user information of the first user needs to be sent to the second user, the specific type of the user information of the first user can be configured according to the relevant configuration parameters of the second user, so as to enable the second user to make better decisions.

[0056] Step 204: In response to receiving the second user's request for access to social information, return authorization permission and send the target social information to the first user.

[0057] In this embodiment, a response is made upon receiving an authorization permission from the second user in response to the social information acquisition request. That is, after determining that the second user has authorized the target social information requested in the social information acquisition request sent by the first user, a response is made and the target social information is sent to the first user.

[0058] Furthermore, by setting a preset time threshold, if no authorization permission is received from the second user for the request to obtain the social information after the preset time threshold has expired, or if a denial of authorization instruction is received within the preset time threshold, the locked social information can be refused to be provided to the first user.

[0059] In some embodiments, in response to the second user returning an authorization license for the social information acquisition request, sending the target social information to the first user includes: in response to receiving a partial authorization license from the second user for the social information acquisition request, sending the portion of the target social information corresponding to the partial authorization license to the first user.

[0060] Specifically, upon receiving a partial authorization from the second user in response to a request for access to social information, the system sends the first user the portion of social information (locked social information) authorized in that partial authorization. This method allows the second user to partially authorize the content of the social information requested by the first user, enabling the second user to better process the locked social information and better balance the relationship between the first user's social information access needs and the second user's privacy protection.

[0061] The social information delivery method provided in this application embodiment receives a social information acquisition request sent by a first user, determines the second user to whom the social information acquisition request is directed, acquires social information uploaded by the second user, wherein the social information includes at least locked social information, and, in response to the target social information requested in the social information acquisition request being the locked social information, forwards the social information acquisition request to the second user, and, in response to receiving authorization permission from the second user in response to the social information acquisition request, sends the target social information to the first user. This implementation can provide users with social information published by other users and allowed to be viewed based on user requests, protecting the privacy of social information publishers while avoiding providing users with too much low-value social information, thus improving the quality of social information acquisition.

[0062] In some embodiments, the social information delivery method further includes: in response to the similarity between the user information of the first user and the pre-authorized user information pre-configured by the second user exceeding a preset threshold, sending the target social information to the first user.

[0063] Specifically, the above implementation can also allow the second user to pre-configure pre-authorized user information, such as configuring a specific account or a first user with specific user information, so that when the first user who sends a social information acquisition request and requests to lock social information meets the pre-authorized user information requirements (the similarity between the first user's user information and the pre-authorized user information exceeds a preset threshold), the first user (type) can be directly authorized. This allows for the pre-distinguishing of different first users according to the needs of the second user, and the pre-classification and pre-authorization of subsequent first users who can be accessed by the second user, thereby reducing the social information acquisition request cost for this type of first user and the authorization cost for the second user, and improving the efficiency of social information distribution.

[0064] Furthermore, when pre-configuring pre-authorized user information, different pre-authorized user information can be configured independently according to different locked social information, so as to achieve different authorization conditions and the purpose of the first user corresponding to different locked social information.

[0065] In some embodiments, in response to the social information also including unlocked social information, the social information delivery method further includes: in response to the target social information requested in the social information acquisition request being the unlocked social information, sending the target social information to the first user.

[0066] Specifically, when the social information also includes unlocked social information, if the target social information requested by the social information acquisition request is the unlocked social information, it can be directly provided to the first user. Without infringing on the privacy of the second user, social information feedback can be provided according to the request of the first user, avoiding providing the user with too much low-value social information.

[0067] In practice, the first user can configure the form and quantity of the unlocked social information obtained through social information reading configuration. For example, after receiving a social information acquisition request from the first user and acquiring the social information uploaded by the second user, the unlocked social information in the second user's social information can be directly presented according to the first user's configuration requirements.

[0068] Continue to refer to Figure 3 This illustrates a flow 300 of a second embodiment of the social messaging method according to this application. The social messaging method may include the following steps:

[0069] Step 301: Receive the social information acquisition request sent by the first user and determine the second user to whom the social information acquisition request is directed.

[0070] Step 302: Obtain the social information uploaded by the second user.

[0071] Step 303: In response to the absence of content corresponding to the social information retrieval request in the social information, a social update request for the social information retrieval request is sent to the second user.

[0072] In this embodiment, when the content corresponding to the social information retrieval request does not exist in the social information, a response is made by sending a social update request to the second user to prompt the second user and assist the second user in formulating a subsequent update strategy for the social information. The social update request also includes the social information retrieval request so that the second user can make targeted updates based on the content recorded in the social information retrieval request, thereby improving the update quality of the social information.

[0073] Steps 301-302 above and as follows Figure 2 Steps 201-202 shown are the same. For the same parts, please refer to the corresponding parts of the previous embodiment. They will not be repeated here. This embodiment is based on the above. Figure 2Based on the illustrated embodiment, if the social information uploaded by the second user does not exist in the social information retrieval request corresponding to the social information retrieval request, the second user can be prompted to update the social information and encourage the second user to engage in social activities.

[0074] In some embodiments, the social information delivery method further includes sending the user information of the first user and the social update request together to the second user.

[0075] Specifically, when sending a social update request to the second user, the first user's information can also be sent to the second user. This allows the second user to better specify the social update strategy based on the first user's information, achieve targeted social updates, and promote social interaction between the first and second users.

[0076] Furthermore, in some embodiments, when receiving updated social information uploaded by the second user based on the social update request, a response can be made to send the updated social information to the first user, so as to efficiently feed back the updated social information to the first user when the second user makes an update for the first user, establish a social connection between the first user and the second user, and improve the social interaction experience between the first user and the second user.

[0077] To facilitate understanding, an application scenario for the social information delivery method is provided below. In this scenario, server A acts as the executor of the social information delivery method. Through the social applications configured within A, it provides social information delivery services for the second user to terminal B used by the first user, as detailed below:

[0078] First, after receiving the user retrieval request from terminal B, server A determines a second user list (including second user A, second user B, and second user C) based on the "gender: female," "age: 20-25," "location: Pumpkin City," and "hobbies: music, tennis, badminton" included in the request. This second user list is then returned to terminal B for display. The display effect on terminal B can be referenced. Figure 4-1 As shown.

[0079] Then, after the first user selects "Second User C" from the list of second users, terminal B can generate a social information retrieval request for "Second User C" according to the instructions of the first user, requesting "retrieve social information published between November 10th and November 12th, 2021", and send the social information retrieval request to server A.

[0080] Furthermore, after receiving the social information retrieval request, server A identifies the "second user C" to whom the request is directed and retrieves the social information (user activity) uploaded by "second user C." This social information includes locked social information posted on November 11, 2021, and unlocked social information posted on November 10 and November 12, 2021. While sending the unlocked social information from November 10 and November 12, 2021 to the first user for presentation, server A also forwards the social information retrieval request and the first user's user information to terminal C used by "second user C." The presentation effect on terminal B at this time can be referenced... Figure 4-2 As shown, the presentation effect in terminal C can be referenced. Figure 4-3 As shown.

[0081] Finally, after receiving authorization from "Second User C" regarding the request to access the social information, the locked social information from November 11, 2021, is presented to the First User. The presentation effect on Terminal B can be referenced. Figure 4-4 As shown.

[0082] The following is for reference. Figure 5 It illustrates a computer device suitable for implementing embodiments of this application (e.g., Figure 1 The diagram shows the structure of the computer system 500 of the devices 101, 102, 103, and 104.
