Abstract

Implementations disclosed herein provide for a third-party application an ability to access a first-party notification interface without receiving credentials linked to a first-party user account. In addition, a device-level permission is established such that each third-party application operating on a client device does not need to seek permission to access the notification interface. A third-party application may request an access code from a client device. The access code may be presented to an authentication server. The authentication server may provide an access token and a refresh token to the third-party application. The third party application may provide the access token and data to be included in a notification to the first-party notification interface.
