Abstract
Various systems and methods are provided for accessing and traversing one or more data structures and generating a functional user interface that can enable non-technical users to quickly and dynamically search for resources of an organization and/or associated documents, events, entities, and/or other data. The user interfaces are interactive such that a user may make selections, provide inputs, and/or manipulate outputs. In response to various user inputs, the system automatically accesses and traverses data structures relating to resources, documents, events, entities, and other data, identifies resources, documents, events, entities, and/or other data that meet search criteria, and returns search results including resources that meet the search criteria and/or resources that are associated with documents, events, entities, and/or other data that meet the search criteria. Resources, documents, events, entities, and other data can be represented by respective types of data structures, which may be associated with other types of data structures. Properties or fields of data structures can have security settings and permissions associated with them.
