Abstract

Described herein is a computer implemented method for displaying a conditional control in a chat interface running on a client device. The method comprises receiving, from a collaboration platform, a conditional control descriptor which defines a conditional control, one or more conditions, and an action to be performed on activation of the conditional control; determining whether the one or more conditions are met; and in response to determining that the one or more conditions are met, displaying the conditional control in the chat interface.
