Abstract

Methods, computer systems, computer-storage media, and graphical user interfaces are provided for facilitating generation and utilization of group folders, according to embodiments of the present technology. In embodiments, an indication to merge a first folder associated with a first entity with a second folder associated with a second entity is received. Based on the indication to merge, a group folder associated with the first entity and the second entity is generated. A representation of the group folder is provided for presentation via a navigation pane of the messaging application. A selection of the representation of the group folder can cause execution of a search query in association with an index of messages to obtain messages associated with the first entity and/or the second entity.
