20110274258 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR INTERFACING WITH A PHONE SYSTEM IN AN ON-DEMAND SERVICE ENVIRONMENT - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for interfacing with a phone system in an on-demand service environment. In one embodiment, a client machine is in communication with a data provider and the phone system. The phone system is operated by a phone provider separate from the data provider. A message is received at the client machine from the phone system. The message includes information regarding a phone event in relation to a phone call. The phone event information is provided in a first part of a user interface in a web browser on the client machine. A second part of the user interface is capable of displaying information received at the client machine from the data provider. The first part of the user interface and the second part of the user interface are adapted to communicate with one another. For example, the first part of the user interface is adapted to send a message including the phone event information to the second part of the user interface. | 11-10-2011 |
20110274261 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR INTERFACING WITH A PHONE SYSTEM IN AN ON-DEMAND SERVICE ENVIRONMENT - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for interfacing with a phone provider in an on-demand service environment. In one embodiment, a proxy server is in communication with a phone system. The phone system provides a phone call and is operated by the phone provider. The proxy server is configured to: receive information from the phone system regarding a phone event in relation to the phone call, and output a message including the phone event information to a data network. A client machine is in communication with the proxy server over the data network and in communication with a data provider separate from the phone provider. The client machine is configured to: receive the message from the proxy server, and display the phone event information in a first part of a user interface in a web browser. A second part of the user interface can display information received from the data provider. | 11-10-2011 |
20110282833 | PROVIDING ADMINISTRATIVE CAPABILITIES IN A MULTI-TENANT DATABASE ENVIRONMENT - A system and method for providing administrative capabilities in a multi-tenant database system. In one embodiment, a method includes providing a portal for a database system to a user, providing administrative capabilities through the portal, and enabling the user to manage objects in the database system using the administrative capabilities. | 11-17-2011 |
20130055147 | CONFIGURATION, GENERATION, AND PRESENTATION OF CUSTOM GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE COMPONENTS FOR A VIRTUAL CLOUD-BASED APPLICATION - A method of presenting information associated with an application begins by providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for display at a user device. The GUI includes a primary GUI element and a secondary GUI element. The content of the primary GUI element is contextually related to the content of the secondary GUI element. The method continues by detecting changes made to the primary content resulting from user interaction with the primary GUI element, and, in response to detecting the changes, refreshing the secondary GUI element to update the secondary content. | 02-28-2013 |
20130173720 | COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING COMMUNICATION BETWEEN NETWORK DOMAINS IN A SERVICE CLOUD - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for integrating a service console application by providing communication between a first and second network domain. In various implementations, first data is received at a second network domain, where the first data includes one or more functions. A first message may be received at the second network domain, the first message being provided at the second network domain in response to the one or more functions being invoked, and the message identifying the one or more functions. Responsive to receiving the message, the one or more functions may be executed at a computing device associated with the second network domain. Responsive to executing the one or more functions, a second message may be sent to the first domain indicating that the one or more functions have been executed, where the second message is operable to invoke and execute one or more call back functions. | 07-04-2013 |
20130202098 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PARTIALLY UPDATING A WEB PAGE USING AN EMBEDDED IFRAME - Methods and systems are provided for managing customer service calls using a localhost service operating within a desktop environment. The system includes a web-based application configured to display browser windows including an overlayed or embedded softphone component, and a desk top application which serves a telephony application configured to receive call status information from a CTI adapter.
