US Patent 12066983 Building collaborative data processing flows

Methods, systems, and devices supporting managing a data processing flow are described. A device (e.g., an application server) may host a cloud-based collaboration application, such as an interactive document application. The device may receive an instance of a data processing flow for a flow application based on a first user input to the cloud-based collaboration application. The device may receive the instance of the data processing flow from a source device hosting the flow application. The device may embed the flow application in the cloud-based collaboration application. The device may then receive user inputs to the data processing flow from multiple users collaborating on the same flow in the cloud-based collaboration application. Based on the user inputs, the device may modify the instance of the data processing flow and transmit the modified instance back to the source device to synchronize the data processing flow in the flow application.
