Claim 7:
8. A computer-implemented method comprising:
receive, from a client, a first request to enable access to a first external resource from within a group-based communication interface;
in response to the first request, transmit an approval request for an admin approval to an admin device associated with an admin user account associated with the group-based communication interface;
receive, from the admin device, the admin approval to enable access to the client to the first external resource from within the group-based communication interface wherein the admin approval is associated with the group-based communication interface and the first external resource;
set a first permission status for the first external resource and a second permission status for a second external resource based at least in part on the admin approval, wherein the first permission status and the second permission status are associated with the group-based communication interface, and wherein the first external resource is different than the second external resource;
based at least in part on receiving the admin approval, cause rendering, to the client, of the group-based communication interface including a component configured to access one or more services provided by the first external resource from within the group-based communication interface;
receive, from the client and within the group-based communication interface, a second request to enable access to the second external resource; and
based at least in part on receiving the second request and the second permission status for the second external resource, cause rendering, to the client, of the group-based communication interface including a component configured to access one or more services provided by the second external resource.
