Abstract

A computer system includes a display interface; a user input device interface; and a processor cooperatively operable with the display and user input device interfaces. The processor provides a browser user interface that interacts with a user to selectively indicate (i) content fields displayed in the source user interface from which information is to be sent and (ii) content fields displayed in the destination user interface which are to receive the information from the source content fields. The computer system stores an indication of the destination app registered for the topic together with an indication of the selected destination content fields which are to receive the information from the selected content fields of the source app. The source app and destination app do not publish/subscribe to each other. An intermediary brokers messages from the source app, maps the data, and sends on to the destination app.
