Abstract
According to one example of the present invention, there is provided, a method of accessing a service. The method comprising: receiving, from a requesting user, a request for a number of accessing users to have access to the service, generating service access data associated with the service, providing, to the requesting user, the generated service access data for distribution to the accessing users, receiving, from an accessing user, service access data, determining, based in part on the received service access data, whether the service can be provided, and where it is so determined, providing the service to the accessing.
Claims17
A method of accessing a service, comprising:
- receiving, from a requesting user, a request for a number of accessing users to have access to the service;
- generating service access data associated with the service;
- providing, to the requesting user, the generated service access data for distribution to the accessing users;
- receiving, from an accessing user, service access data;
- determining, based in part on the received service access data, whether the service can be provided;
- and
- where it is so determined, providing the service to the accessing.
A system for accessing a service provided by a service management system, comprising:
- a service control access module to:
- receive, from a user, a request to access the service, the service request including service access data, the service access data having been previously provided to the user in response to a request for a number of users to have access to the service;
- determine, based in part on the received service access data, whether the service can be provided;
- create an account, where it is so determined, for the accessing user, the account including authentication data to be used for authenticating the accessing user in response to a subsequent request to access the service;
- and
- provide the user access to the service on the service management system.
The system of 11, wherein the service control access module is further arranged to:
- receive a request including a service access level associated with the users to be given access to the service, and
- generate service access data based, in part, on the received service access level.
A tangible, machine-readable medium that stores machine-readable instructions executable by a processor to provide a method of accessing to a service, the tangible, machine-readable medium comprising:
- machine readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, receive, from an accessing user, a request to access a service, the service request including service access data, the service access data having been previously provided to a requesting user in response to a request from the requesting user for a number of accessing users to have access to the service with an associated service access level;
- machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor:
- determine, based in part on the received service access data, whether the service can be provided;
- create an account, where it is so determined, for the accessing user, the account including authentication data to be used for authenticating the accessing user in response to a subsequent request to access the service;
- and
- provide to the accessing user access to the service.
