[0022] Various example implementations of the solution are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example Environment

[0024] Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. Figure 1 As shown, example environment 100 may include electronic device 110 .

[0025] In this example environment 100, the electronic device 110 may run an application 120 that supports interface interaction. The application 120 may be any appropriate type of application for interface interaction, examples of which may include, but are not limited to, instant messaging applications, social applications, image applications, or other appropriate applications. The user 140 may interact with the application 120 via the electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0026] exist Figure 1 In the environment 100, if the application 120 is in an active state, the electronic device 110 can present an interface 150 for supporting interface interaction through the application 120.

[0027] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to provide services for the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal or portable terminal, including a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a handheld computer, a portable game terminal, a VR / AR device, a personal communication system (PCS) device, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio receiver, an e-book device, a game device, or any combination of the foregoing, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface for the user (such as a "wearable" circuit, etc.).

[0028] The server 130 may be an independent physical server, or a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The server 130 may include, for example, a computing system / server, such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, etc. The server 130 may provide background services for the application 120 that supports virtual scenes in the electronic device 110.

[0029] A communication connection may be established between the server 130 and the electronic device 110. The communication connection may be established in a wired manner or a wireless manner. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth connection, a mobile network connection, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection, a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) connection, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 130 and the electronic device 110 may implement signaling interaction through the communication connection between the two.

[0030] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for exemplary purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0031] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Example Interaction

[0033] FIG. 2A to FIG. 2E 200A to 200E according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The interfaces 200A to 200E may be composed of, for example, Figure 1 The electronic device 110 is provided as shown.

[0034] like Figure 2A As shown, interface 200A may be the personal page of the current user. It is understandable that the personal page of the application platform may display the media content works published by the user and the user's profile information, etc. Figure 2A As shown, the electronic device 110 may provide a control 205 in the interface 200A. In response to the selection of the control 205, the electronic device 110 may present a Figure 2B Interface 200B is shown. Interface 200B can be understood as a subpage of interface 200A, that is, a subpage of the personal page.

[0035] like Figure 2BAs shown, the interface 200B may provide a group creation portal 210. In some embodiments, the group creation portal 210 may be used to create a "public" group. In the present disclosure, the "public" group corresponds to the first group type.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 2B As shown, interface 200B may also display one or more "public" groups configured to be displayed in interface 200B, for example, group 215. Additionally, electronic device 110 may also provide control 220 associated with group 215 to cancel display of group 215 in the current user's personal page (also referred to as the third interface).

[0037] In some embodiments, interface 200B may also display one or more "public" groups that are not displayed in interface 200B, such as group 225. Additionally, electronic device 110 may also provide control 230 associated with group 225 to trigger display of group 225 in the current user's personal page.

[0038] Additionally, the electronic device 110 may also receive a selection to create the portal 210, and may accordingly present the following: Figure 2C The group configuration interface 200C shown. Figure 2C As shown, the electronic device 110 may obtain the group configuration information of the group to be created via the configuration interface 200C.

[0039] As an example, the group configuration information may include a group name input via control 235 and a group profile input via control 240. Additionally, the configuration interface 200C may further include a control 340 for configuring whether to display the created group in a preset interface (eg, the current user's personal page).

[0040] Further, the electronic device 110 may receive a selection of the create button 250, and create a new "public" group (also referred to as a first group) based on the received group configuration information. Further, in response to the new "public" group being created, the group may be displayed on the current user's personal page, or may be triggered to be displayed on the current user's personal page based on the user's configuration operation.

[0041] For example, when other users visit the personal page of the current user (e.g., user X), they can click Figure 2A Control 205 is shown to view group access entries corresponding to one or more "public" groups associated with user X.

[0042] Furthermore, other users can view the “public” group and / or apply to join the “public” group by clicking on such a group access entrance.

[0043] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also support providing different group creation portals in other types of application interfaces.

[0044] As an example, Figure 2D A message management interface 200D according to some embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. The message management interface 200D can be used to display messages received and / or sent by the user in the application.

[0045] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may present a message management interface 200D based on the user's selection of the control 255. Figure 2E Interface 200E is shown.

[0046] In some embodiments, the application may support multiple types of groups, and such multiple types of groups may correspond to different distribution ranges.

[0047] In some embodiments, the "public" group described above may correspond to a first group type, which may correspond to a first distribution range. For example, the first distribution range may indicate: allowing the group to be displayed on a personal page; allowing such a group to be shared through a conversation message; allowing joining the group through a search, etc.

[0048] In some embodiments, the application may also create a second group corresponding to a second group type (also called a "social" group). Such a second group type may correspond to a second distribution range. The second distribution range may indicate: not allowing the group to be displayed on a personal page; not allowing such a group to be shared through a conversation message; not allowing the group to be joined through a search, etc.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first group type and the second group type may also correspond to different creation constraints. For example, creating a group of the first group type requires the current user to meet a first preset condition, while creating a group of the second group type requires the current user to meet a different second preset condition.

[0050] In some embodiments, the first group type and the second group type may also provide different group management functions. For example, the first group type may allow the setting of group administrators, the setting of group entry conditions, the opening of group entry confirmation, etc. On the contrary, the first group type may not allow the setting of group administrators, the setting of group entry conditions, the opening of group entry confirmation, etc.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first group type and the second group type provide different message interaction functions. For example, the second group type may provide users with more types of message interaction capabilities. For example, the second group type may support audio and video call capabilities or interactive gameplay between users, but the first group type, for example, does not support audio and video call capabilities and interactive gameplay between users.

[0052] As an example, the application may also support more types of groups. For example, the application supports merchant users to create groups corresponding to the third group type for communication with customers. Such third group types may correspond to different distribution ranges, different creation constraints, different group management functions, and / or different message interaction functions.

[0053] Continue to refer Figure 2E , the electronic device 110 may display multiple creation portals (also referred to as controls) corresponding to different types of groups. For example, the creation portal 260 may correspond to the first group type. For example, the creation portal 260 may be used to create a "public" group.

[0054] As an example, the electronic device 110 may receive a selection to create an entry 260 and may accordingly present a Figure 2C The group configuration interface shown in the figure can be used to create a new "public" group accordingly. The specific creation process can refer to the content described above and will not be repeated here.

[0055] In some embodiments, creation entry 265 and creation entry 270 may be used to create a group of the second group type. Specifically, electronic device 110 may receive a selection of creation entry 265 and may create a "social" group by scanning a code, entering a group creation password, or other appropriate methods.

[0056] In some embodiments, the control corresponding to the creation entry 270 may display one or more users that are allowed to be added to the "social" group. It is understandable that the control corresponding to the creation entry 270 may display users with a preset association relationship with the current user, such as mutually related users. The electronic device 110 may receive a selection of one or more users in the control, and may accordingly create a new "social" group (also referred to as a second group) to add the selected one or more users to the group.

[0057] Different from the first group described above, the second group will not be allowed to be displayed in a preset interface (eg, a personal page) associated with the current user.

[0058] Thus, when the application supports the creation of multiple types of groups, the application can provide group creation portals corresponding to different group types based on different interfaces. As an example, the application can only provide a single group creation portal corresponding to the first group type in the first type of interface (e.g., personal page).

[0059] As another example, the application can provide multiple group creation portals corresponding to multiple group types in the second type of interface (e.g., the message management interface described above). In some embodiments, the second type of interface can also include a display interface for media content, such as a main display interface of an information stream, etc.

[0060] Based on the process described above, the embodiments of the present disclosure can adaptively provide creation portals for different types of groups according to the different interfaces where the portals are located, thereby improving the efficiency of group creation.

[0061] Example Process

[0062] Figure 3 1 is a flow chart showing an example process 300 of creating a group according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The process 300 may be implemented at the electronic device 110. Figure 1 The process 300 is described below.

[0063] like Figure 3 As shown, in box 310, the electronic device 110 displays at least one group creation entry in the target interface in response to a first preset operation received in the target interface, and the group type corresponding to the at least one group creation entry is determined based on the interface type of the target interface.

[0074] In some embodiments, the second distribution range further indicates that the group corresponding to the second group type does not support sharing the group via a session and / or joining the group via a search.

[0075] In some embodiments, a configuration operation for the first group is received; in response to the configuration operation, a group access entry associated with the first group is triggered to be displayed in the third interface, where the group access entry is used to view the first group or join the first group.

[0076] In some embodiments, receiving the configuration operation for the first group includes: displaying a third control for displaying the first group on a third interface in a setting interface of the first group; and receiving the configuration operation for the first group via the third control.
