Method, apparatus, and computer program product for organizing the booting operation of a group-based communication browser session

Abstract:

Various methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for background loading data. The computer-implemented method includes executing a group-based communication browser session module stored in at least one memory. The computer-implemented method also includes causing a service worker to request an update for the group-based communication browser session module during execution of the group-based communication browser session module. The computer-implemented method further includes receiving the update for the group-based communication browser session during the operation of the group-based communication browser session. The computer-implemented method still further includes caching the update via the service worker. The computer-implemented method also includes restarting the group-based communication browser session module after caching the update. Restarting the group-based communication browser session module includes updating at least a portion of the group-based communication browser session module to provide the update for display to a user. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.
