Abstract
Image session identifier techniques are described. In one or more implementations, a request is received to create an image sharing session and a session identifier is generated for the image sharing session that is configured to act as a credential to join the image sharing session as a member. A communication is formed that includes the generated session identifier and that is configured for communication via a network to an originator of the request.

1-20. (canceled)
A method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the at least one computing device, a request to initiate an image sharing session;
- communicating, by the at least one computing device, the request to a service provider via a network;
- receiving, by the at least one computing device, a quick response (QR) code as a session identifier from the service provider via the network in response to the request;
- and
- distributing, by the at least one computing device, the QR code for receipt by at least one other computing device, the QR code configured to permit direct access by the at least one other computing device to the image sharing session to share digital images as part of the image sharing session.
A method implemented by at least one computing device, the method comprising:
- scanning, by an image capture device of the at least one computing device, a quick response (QR) code, the QR code associated with an image sharing session;
- accessing, by the at least one computing device, the image sharing session via a network as a member of the image sharing session in response to the scanning of the QR code, the accessing performed directly without additional authentication;
- and
- sharing, by the at least one computing device, at least one image as part of the image sharing session.
A system comprising:
- means for receiving a request from a computing device via a network to initiate an image sharing session;
- means for generating a quick response (QR) code as a session identifier in response to the request, the QR code provides direct access to the image sharing session to share digital images as part of the image sharing session;
- means for receiving a communication to join the image sharing session from at least one other computing device, the communication generated based on the QR code;
- means for adding the at least one other computing device as a member of the image sharing session based on the communication;
- and
- means for managing communication of images as part of the image sharing session.
