Group-Sending Interface for Social Network Message Delivery
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing message sending technologies in social networking application systems require operators to add user accounts of multiple followers one by one, leading to complex operations and low efficiency when sending messages to multiple followers.
Innovation Solution
A method involving the generation and invocation of a group-sending interface request that carries a to-be-sent message and group identifiers, allowing the message to be sent to multiple followers through a message group-sending interface provided by the open platform server, thereby simplifying the process and improving efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If operators add user accounts of multiple followers one by one to send messages, then the message can be delivered to each follower, but the operation complexity increases and message sending efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple individual user account operations into a single group-based operation. Instead of adding each follower's user account separately to the message sending request, the system allows operators to add a group identifier that represents multiple followers, thereby combining multiple operations into one and resolving the contradiction between productivity and ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces a group identifier as an intermediary element between the operator and multiple follower user accounts. This intermediary allows the operator to reference multiple followers indirectly through the group identifier, eliminating the need to directly handle each individual user account and thus improving both efficiency and operational simplicity

AI summary
A method for delivering messages performed at a server includes: generating a group-sending interface invocation request, and sending the group-sending interface invocation request to an open platform server, where the group-sending interface invocation request carries a to-be-sent message and at least one group identifier, a follower group corresponding to each group identifier includes a user account of at least one follower of a target user account, the target user account is a user account that a service provider applies for to the social networking application, the group-sending interface invocation request is used to invoke a message group-sending interface provided by the open platform server, and the message group-sending interface is configured to send a message to a client terminal corresponding to a user account in a follower group corresponding to each of the at least one group identifier.
