  • Patent number: 11915699
    Abstract: Systems and methods for account data association with voice interface devices are disclosed. For example, when a host user/primary user and guest user have consented for account data to be associated with the primary user's devices, a request to associate the account data may be received. Voice and device-based authentication may be performed to confirm the identity of the guest user and the guest user's account data may be associated with the primary user's devices. During a guest session, voice recognition may be utilized to determine if a given user utterance is from the guest user or the primary user, and actions may be performed by the voice interface device accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11880484
    Abstract: A multi-tenant system sends jobs for execution on a secondary platform such as a cloud based platform. The multi-tenant system sends tenant data for multiple tenants to the secondary platform. The multi-tenant system obtains job-level credentials from the secondary platform, for example, security tokens that provide access to tenant data for a fixed length of time. The multi-tenant system uses the job-level credentials for enforcing tenant level data isolation for jobs executed on the secondary platform. This ensures that the jobs executing on the secondary platform do not access, modify, or delete data of tenants not related to the job.

  • Publication number: 20230201846
    Abstract: An inflatable sprayhead includes a main body made of an elastic material. The main body includes an inflatable portion and an output portion. The inflatable portion and the output portion are coupled. The inflatable portion has a first chamber inside, and the inflatable portion is changeable between an inflated state and an uninflated state by inflating or deflating the first chamber. The output portion has a second chamber and an output surface, which communicates with the second chamber. The main body includes an isolation portion that is located between the inflatable portion and the output portion, wherein the first chamber and the second chamber are separated by the isolation portion. Thus, when the main body is in the uninflated state, a volume of the main body could be reduced. Additionally, the main body that is foldable and flexible facilitates storage.
