Abstract

A managed directory service receives a request from a first service to link a directory of a contractor service to the first service's directory. The managed directory service identifies a group within the directory of the contractor service and links the directories using this group. Through the link, the managed directory service enables users in the group to authenticate to the first service's directory using credentials for the directory of the contractor service.
