Cross-Session Message Linking for Automatic Update Propagation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In instant messaging scenarios, users face cumbersome operations when changing delivered messages and often miss informing further users, leading to poor user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method involving obtaining a link to a message in a first session and displaying content in a second business scenario, with updates based on message changes, allowing seamless delivery of message content and changes across different platforms.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a user manually re-delivers changed messages to further users, then the further users are informed of message changes, but the operation becomes cumbersome and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-establishes link relationships between messages in different sessions. When a message is changed in the original session, the corresponding linked content in other sessions is automatically updated without requiring manual re-delivery. This preliminary linkage setup enables automatic synchronization later.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where changes in the original message session are detected and automatically propagated to sessions containing linked messages. The system monitors message changes and triggers automatic updates in dependent sessions, creating a closed-loop information synchronization system.
2Productivity
If message content is copied and pasted between sessions, then the message can be delivered to further users, but the operation is complex and easy to miss updates
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of copying message content manually, the system creates intelligent links that reference the original message. These links automatically reflect the current state of the source message, eliminating the need for manual copying and ensuring updates are always current without additional time investment.
Solution Approach 2:
The message link serves multiple functions simultaneously: it acts as a reference to the original message, an automatic update mechanism, and a delivery vehicle to multiple sessions. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate copy-paste operations to multiple destinations.
3Reliability
If users manually track and update delivered messages, then further users are informed of changes, but the process is cumbersome and error-prone
Solution Approach 1:
The system introduces an intermediary link mechanism that connects the original message session with sessions containing delivered messages. This intermediary automatically tracks changes and propagates updates, eliminating the need for users to manually track and update messages across sessions.
Solution Approach 2:
The message link system performs self-service by automatically detecting changes in the source message and propagating them to all linked sessions. The system monitors its own state and executes updates without user intervention, reducing both complexity and error potential.

AI summary
The disclosure provides a method, apparatus, electronic device and storage medium for information processing. The method for information processing includes: obtaining a first link corresponding to at least one message in a first session; in response to an operation of sending the first link to a second business scenario, displaying first content in a second business scenario, wherein the first content comprises at least part of content of the at least one message; and updating the first content in the second business scenario accordingly based on change information of the at least one message.
