Team Identifier and Group Association for Information Privacy Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing instant messaging applications lack efficient methods to manage and control information interaction within team-based communication, leading to potential interference and privacy issues.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a method and apparatus that display team identifiers and associated groups on an information interaction interface, allowing control of information interaction permissions based on team member sets, and enabling editing of association relations between groups and teams.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If information interaction is allowed among all users in instant messaging applications, then communication freedom and accessibility are improved, but privacy security and interference control deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the user base into distinct team member sets and non-team members, creating separate communication channels. Team identifiers are displayed to distinguish team-based interactions from general interactions, allowing users to selectively engage with different groups while maintaining privacy boundaries.
Solution Approach 2:
Different permission levels and interaction rules are applied to different user groups. Team members receive different treatment compared to non-team members, with specific permission controls applied locally to each team context rather than uniformly across all users.
2Object-affected harmful factors
If team-based permission control is implemented, then privacy security and interference control are improved, but device complexity and operation difficulty worsen
Solution Approach 1:
The team identifier serves multiple functions simultaneously: it identifies the team, controls permission boundaries, and manages information display. This multi-functional approach reduces the need for separate complex permission management systems while achieving the same privacy control objectives.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically manages team member sets and permission assignments based on team identifiers, reducing manual configuration requirements. Users benefit from automated permission control without needing to manually manage complex access rules for each interaction.
3Loss of information
If team identifiers and group associations are displayed, then information transparency is improved, but interface complexity and user confusion worsen
Solution Approach 1:
Team identifier information is extracted and displayed separately from the main communication content. This separation allows users to quickly identify team contexts without being overwhelmed by detailed group association data, maintaining transparency while reducing visual complexity.

AI summary
An information interaction method and apparatus, and an electronic device are disclosed in embodiments of this disclosure. The method includes: displaying a team identifier on an information interaction interface, where a team indicated by the team identifier has an associated team member set; and displaying at least one group associated with the team indicated by the team identifier, where a group of at least one group at least includes some members in the team member set. The team identifier is displayed on the information interaction interface, where the team indicated by the team identifier has the associated team member set; and at least one group associated with the team indicated by the team identifier is displayed, where the group of at least one group at least includes some members in the team member set.
