SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING ACCESS TO STORED OBJECTS

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for managing access to a stored object/resource are provided. A shared access credential service may manage access attempts to the stored object by a client. A first request is received by the service from the client. The first request includes an authorization token. Whether an application in the client is authorized to access the stored object based upon the authorization token is determined. In response to determining the application to be authorized to access the stored object, (a) a shared access credential is generated to replace a prior-generated shared access credential (if existing) associated with the stored object, (b) the replacement shared access credential is associated with the stored object, and (c) the replacement shared access credential is provided by the service to the client. The replacement shared access credential is configured to be presented by the application to enable access to the stored object.
