METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ORGANIZING THE BOOTING OPERATION OF A GROUP-BASED COMMUNICATION SESSION

Abstract:

Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for background updating an application. An example computer-implemented method includes activating a group-based communication browser session within a first display window of an apparatus. The computer-implemented method also includes transmitting an update request for the group-based communication browser session to a group-based communication system upon determining that a window focus of the apparatus is on a second display window. The computer-implemented method further includes receiving an update for the group-based communication browser session. The computer-implemented method still further includes caching the update for the group-based communication browser session via a memory of the apparatus. The computer-implemented method also includes refreshing the group-based communication browser session based at least in part on the update upon determining that the window focus of the apparatus changes to the first display window. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.
