Instant Messaging Link Storage via Message Card Controls
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current instant messaging tools do not allow users to efficiently store link content without clicking on the URL or title, leading to low content consumption efficiency and hindered message circulation between different suites.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for processing links in instant messaging conversations by displaying a message card with a storage control, enabling users to store link content directly without clicking on the URL or title, improving content consumption efficiency and facilitating message circulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If users click on the URL or title to jump to the main body for storage, then the link content can be stored, but the content consumption efficiency is low and the operation process is complex
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by displaying a message card with storage control before the user needs to store the link content. The message card is rendered immediately when the link message is received, providing the storage control option in advance, so users don't need to navigate to the main body first - they can directly store the content through the pre-displayed storage control.
Solution Approach 2:
The invention extracts the storage function from the traditional workflow of clicking URL→opening main body→storing content. By taking out the storage control and placing it directly on the message card, the system separates the storage action from the navigation action, allowing users to store link content without necessarily visiting the main body page.
2Productivity
If only the title or part of link content is displayed, then the interface is simple, but users cannot efficiently store the complete link content
Solution Approach 1:
The message card serves as an intermediary between the link message and the storage function. It contains both the link information (title, thumbnail, description) and the storage control in one integrated component, mediating the interaction between users and link content without requiring users to navigate away from the conversation interface.
3Ease of operation
If the message card includes storage control, then direct storage is enabled, but the message card complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The message card is designed as a multi-functional component that simultaneously displays link information (title, thumbnail, description) and provides storage control. This universal design allows the same message card structure to serve both information display and content storage purposes, reducing the need for separate interfaces or components.

AI summary
Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a method, apparatus, system and storage medium for processing a link in a conversation. In at least one embodiment of the disclosure, for a message containing a link sent in an instant messaging conversation, a message card itself is enabled to support storage function and a user is enabled to trigger a first storage control in the message card in turn by displaying the message card including the first storage control in an interface of the instant messaging conversation. A link object corresponding to the link is stored thereby in responding to the user's operation for trigger the first storage control. The user can directly store link content of the link in an instant messaging tool by triggering the first storage control, without clicking on the link or clicking on a title to jump to a main body for storage.
