Patent attributes
Methods and apparatuses are described for session-based data storage for chat-based communication sessions. A computing device connects to a data storage area associated with an active chat-based communication session, the data storage area comprising data storage slots. The computing device identifies a first data event during the chat-based communication session, the first data event comprising one of a data capture event, a data retrieval event, or a data prefill event. The computing device identifies a data storage slot in the data storage area corresponding to the first data event, the data storage slot comprising a slot name and a slot value. The computing device selects data elements associated with the chat-based communication session for insertion into the data storage slot based upon the event type of the first data event. The computing device stores the selected data elements in the data storage slot for retrieval during the chat-based communication session.
