Patent number: 11930016Abstract: A client application is specified by a target tenant and represented in an OAuth provider, along with a corresponding secret. A source tenant consents to permissions to be executed by the client application on a resource of the source tenant. A target service uses the secret to obtain an access token from an authorization server coupled to the source tenant and uses the access token to obtain access, specified by the permissions, to the resource served by a source service acting on behalf of the source tenant.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2022Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLC.Inventors: Anshul Dube, Parul Manek, Steven Mark Silverberg, Shankaranand Arunachalam, Jason Craig Nelson, Andrew Burke Ryan, Robert A. Lowe, Ganesh Pandey

Patent number: 11436230Abstract: In a multi-tenant computing system, a cross-tenant user search system receives a user search input from a user using a client of a first tenant. The cross-tenant user search system accesses a policy that identifies one or more related tenants that are related to the first tenant. The policy also identifies directory records of users in the related tenant that can be searched by users of the first tenant. The cross-tenant user search system executes a search against a directory for the first tenant and executes a separate search against the directory records in the related tenants, identified in the policy. The search results from searching the directory for the first tenant and the related search results from searching the directory records in the tenant are aggregated into an aggregated set of search results which are then returned to the client.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2021Date of Patent: September 6, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Shankaranand Arunachalam, Robert Allen Lowe, Jason Craig Nelson, Paul Baecke, Xiaoqin Zhu, Ganesh Pandey, Parul Manek

Patent number: 10970124Abstract: A hybrid configuration engine and associated method for reducing the complexity and burden of configuring rich coexistence between an on-premise solution and a cloud-based solution is described herein and illustrated in the accompanying figures. The hybrid configuration engine determines the current state of the on-premise solution and the cloud-based solution and learns the desired configuration state. After obtaining the current and desired configuration state information, the hybrid configuration engine determines and automatically performs steps to reach the desired configuration state. Finally, the hybrid configuration engine provides instructions describing the manual steps needed to reach the desired configuration state.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jason Craig Nelson, Ben Appleby
