Patent attributes
Techniques are described for providing and/or managing work routines (WRs) in a collaborative platform. Implementations provide a platform that enables collaboration between multiple entities (e.g., users) to address an issue collectively, for process management, issue resolution, and so forth. The platform enables the creation of a WR that includes any suitable number of data objects to facilitate management of a process, resolution of an issue, and/or other tasks. The WR may also include any suitable number of tools for controlling the manipulation and/or rendering of the data objects. The platform provides a polymorphism through which data objects may be rendered differently based on the tools that are used to render the tool objects. The platform also provides for the automatic creation of a WR, or a template for a WR, where such creation may be triggered by an event and/or based on a current context.
