Abstract: A method and apparatus for a commerce platform providing proof of application ownership of a network distributable application are described. The method may include receiving a request to approve an application developed by a merchant system, wherein the application includes an application programming interface (API) component, a software development kit (SDK) component, or a combination thereof provided by the commerce platform to the merchant system. The method may also include generating a unique identifier (ID) for the application to be included as metadata within the application. Furthermore, the method may include obtaining, from an application information system, data describing the application, and extracting an ID from metadata in the data obtained by the application information system.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software can be used to share content. In some aspect, a first user input for copying a content is received at a first application on a mobile device. A token that is associated with the content is generated. A Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is sent from the first application to a clipboard application. A second user input for pasting the content is received at a second application on the mobile device. The token is received at the second application from the clipboard application. A request for the content is received from the second application. The request includes the token. Whether the second application is authorized to receive the content is determined at the first application. In response to determining that the second application is authorized to receive the content, the content is provided to the second application.

Abstract: Methods and devices for accessing protected applications. A client device accessing a protected application executing on the application server is provided. The client device configured to establish a session between the client device and the application server based on an exchange of authentication credential information between the client device and the application server; generate an authentication token from the authentication credential information associated with the protected application; transfer the authentication token to the remote server for storage at the remote server; and transmit a directive to the remote server to access the protected application executing on the application server, where the directive includes an identifier associated with the authentication token for accessing the protected application.
