Abstract
A user interface of a producing application is accessed. The producing application includes embeddable snippets that each include encapsulated code that provides the functionality of one or more user interface component. Each of the components is for displaying at least a portion of the user interface with user data of the producing application obtained from a server computer and wherein the snippets communicate with Representational State Transfer (REST) application programming interfaces (APIs) of the producing application. At least a portion of a javascript library that includes the embeddable snippet is received. An embedded snippet is created in a user interface of a consuming application by embedding a particular snippet selected from the embeddable snippets into the user interface of the consuming application. The embedded snippet provides a user with the same appearance and interactions as the embeddable snippet without the user logging into the producing application.
