Abstract

A method includes receiving, at a computing device, a search query from a remote device. The method further includes identifying a primary set of application state records, selecting a first application state record from the primary set of application state records, and identifying an entity name and action associated with the first application state record. The method further includes identifying a second application state record associated with the same entity name as the first application state record and a different action than the first application state record. Additionally, the method includes generating a combined result based on the first application state record and the second application state record, generating search results based on the primary set of application state records, and transmitting the search results to the remote device. The search results include the combined result in addition to search results based on the primary set of application state records.
