Abstract
Techniques for providing an enhanced user profile to provide relevant information to a user requesting to view a user profile associated with another user. In an example, a first user submits a request to view a user profile associated with a second user. In response to receiving the request, the communication platform identifies one or more communication objects (e.g., communication channels, direct messaging instances, messages, threads, etc.) and/or one or more applications (third-party applications, first party applications, etc.) associated with the second user and/or the first user. The communication platform causes a display of indicator(s) associated with the communication object(s) and/or application(s) in association with the user profile, such as to enable efficient access to the associated communication object(s) and/or application(s). Additionally, the communication platform can identify additional contacts of the second user and/or inferred characteristics of the second user to present in association with the user profile.
