    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for workflow service back end integration. In some examples, a service request is identified. The service request is associated with a network service. A single sign-on (SSO) token is received. The SSO token represents a user account authenticated with an identity manager. Authentication data for the network service is identified based on the SSO token. A hosting location of a connector for the network service is identified based on the authentication data. An authentication header is appended to the service request. The service request with the authentication header is transmitted to the connector.

    Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein provide context-based application suggestions to a user in real time. A user device can identify a keyword displayed in an application, such as an email application. The user device can request a card from a connector external to the user device. The connector can identify an application that relates to the keyword and determine a current installation status for the application with respect to the user device. The connector can query a management server at which the user device is enrolled to request the installation status. If the application is not installed on the user device, the connector can instruct the user device to prompt the user to install the application. If the application is installed, the connector can instruct the user device to prompt the user to launch the installed application.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for polling federated services for notifications. A request for an access token for a federated service is sent to an authentication service. The access token for the federated service is received from the authentication service. A query is sent to the federated service for a notification, the query comprising the access token. The notification is received from the federated service.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for retrieving contacts from a plurality of federated services. A query is received from a client application executing on a client device, the query comprising a single sign-on token that identifies a user and a character string. A number of federated services that the user has permission to access are then identified. A plurality of authentication tokens are then retrieved from an authentication service, each of the plurality of authentication tokens identifying the user to a respective one of the plurality of federated services. Next, the authentication token and the character string are provided to a respective connector for each of the plurality of federated services that the user has permission to access. A plurality of responses are received, each of the plurality of responses being received from the respective connector corresponding to each of the plurality of federated services that the user has permission to access. Then the plurality of responses are provided to the client application executing on the client device.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for relaying and caching authentication credentials. A single sign-on (SSO) token is received, the SSO token representing a user account authenticated with an identity manager. An authentication request is then sent to a service that is federated with the identity manager in response to receipt of the SSO token, the authentication request including the SSO token. An access token is received in response to the authentication request, the access token providing access to the service for the user account authenticated with the identity manager for a predefined period of time. The access token and a link between the access token and the SSO token are then cached.
