Authorization proxy platform

Abstract:

Techniques for brokering authorization between a user-facing service and a backend service are disclosed. A proxy service, operating independently of the user-facing service and the backend service, exposes an application programming interface (API) configured to receive requests from the user-facing services to perform functions of the plurality of backend services. The proxy service stores user authorization data that authorizes a user of a particular user-facing service to use a function of a backend service. The proxy service receives, via the API, a request to perform the function for an account associated with the user. Responsive to receiving to the request, the proxy service uses the user authorization data to access the backend service to perform the function for the account associated with the user.
