Abstract: Computing systems, database systems, and related methods are provided for suggesting logical relationships between database objects. One exemplary method involves a server identifying a database action with respect to a contact object associated with an event object, and in response to the action, identifying a second contact object in the database likely to be related to the event object based on one or more attributes of the event object. The server provides an indication of the second contact object in association with the event object on a client device and updates the database to maintain an association between the event object and the second contact object in response to an input at the client device.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for creating a calendar event in a calendar application to provide at least some attendees with access to supplemental information related to the calendar event. The calendar application is configurable to allow sharing of supplemental information between users who are affiliated with a first organization that utilizes the calendar application in a cloud computing system, and other users who are affiliated with a second organization. When a user affiliated with the first organization creates create a calendar event that includes a list of attendees that includes second user-attendee(s) affiliated with a second organization that utilizes the calendar application, the user can enable sharing of the supplemental information with any of the second user-attendees included in the list of attendees so that they are allowed to view the supplemental information when viewing the calendar event.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for creating an instance of an object from within a context of a user interface of a calendar application. The calendar application can automatically detect existing calendars that are associated with a user of a particular organization, and dynamically determine different object types that are associated with calendar items displayed in each of the existing calendars. The different object types can include standard objects and custom objects. The calendar application can then provide a new object creation user interface (UI) element that (when selected) includes a list of the different object types that are displayed in response to selecting the new object creation UI element. When a user selects one of the different object types from the list, the calendar application can create, from within the context of the main user interface of the calendar application, an instance of the object in the cloud computing platform.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for performing actions with respect to records maintained by a database system from within a calendar context of a calendar application. An association between a type of target object selected from a list of target objects for an organization, and an action type selected from a list of action types is created to define a quick action that is can be performed with respect to an instance of the type of target object. When a user interacts with a calendar item that relates to a record that is an instance of the target object and represents data associated with the calendar item, a quick action UI element is displayed within a main UI of the calendar application. When the user interacts with the quick action UI element, the quick action can be performed with respect to the record from within calendar context.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for generating a calendar view of a schedule that includes a time zone adjusted travel event and calendar items. When a user creates a travel event on a calendar, an adjusted duration for the travel event is computed, and the travel event is then scheduled according to the adjusted duration. The travel event takes place over a first time zone of a starting location that a user departs from at a departure time, and a second (different) time zone of an ending location that the user arrives at an arrival time. The adjusted duration for the travel event that is time-adjusted, based on time zones that the travel event takes place over, to account for any transitions between the time zones that occur during the travel event. Other calendar items that occur on the travel date and are to be displayed in a main user interface of a calendar application can also be detected. A single schedule is then displayed in the main user interface of the calendar application that includes the travel event and each of the other calendar items. The travel event is displayed within the single schedule such that the travel event is rendered to have the adjusted duration that is time-adjusted to account for any transitions between the time zones that occur during the travel event.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for displaying a context-sensitive overlay in conjunction with a calendar displayed by a calendar application. The calendar application can determine contextual information from the calendar that indicates context for the calendar. The contextual information comprises calendar data or third-party data linked to calendar items that are displayed in the calendar. The calendar application can automatically query a backend system to dynamically determine, based on the contextual information, at least one context-sensitive overlay that is pertinent to the calendar in view of the contextual information. The context-sensitive overlay provides supplemental information that is directly associated with the contextual information from the calendar. The context-sensitive overlay can be displayed in conjunction with the calendar so that it is superimposed on at least a portion of the calendar.
