Patent attributes
The subject matter described in this specification includes a computer-readable medium storing instructions that cause one or more processors to perform various operations including receiving, from a first client device associated with a user account of a first user, a request for sharing a key. The key is associated with the user account of the first user, and permits access to a resource. The operations include generating, at a server, one or more representations of the key, transmitting the representations of the key to the first client device, and receiving, from a second client device associated with a user account of a second user, a request to access the key. The request to access the key is derived from one of the one or more representations of the key. The operations further include communicating, to the second client device, a message indicating whether access to the key has been granted.
