Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for generating account permissions for an account on a computing system. In some embodiments, an application programming interface (API) interaction involving an external application and a computing system is used to generate a corresponding set of account permissions for an account. The set of account permissions may also or alternatively be generated for the account using API permissions for external applications. The set of account permissions may cause the account to access the same resource on the computing system as the external application, thereby avoiding granting over-wide access rights to the computing system to the account.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to account-based authorization on a computing system and, in certain embodiments, to generating account permissions for an account on a computing system based on interaction with an application programming interface (API). Background technique [0002] Some instances of software supported by a computing system may be restricted to specific users. An administrator of an online store on an e-commerce platform is an example of a software instance that is typically limited to a single user or group of users. For example, resources accessible through administrators can enable access to sensitive information that should not be shared with third parties. However, completely restricting third parties to the administrators of an online store may hinder the support and growth of the online store. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] The computing system may provide third party account permissions to enable third parties to access...
