Abstract

A method of sharing an item from an external resource comprises displaying a user interface for the external resource in a messaging application and navigating within the external resource based on user input received in the user interface presented in the messaging application. Upon receipt of selection of an item or state within the external resource based on user input, the identity of one or more recipients is obtained. Information representing the item or state is then transmitted to a device of at least one recipient and information representing the item or state is displayed in a chat interface of a messaging application running on a device of the recipient(s).
