Abstract

A managed directory service obtains a request to generate a first account of a first directory within a first network. In response to the request, the managed directory service creates the first account within the first directory. From the request, the managed directory service also obtains credential information of a second account of a second directory within a second network. The managed directory service updates the first account to include this credential information to enable the first account to be used to access the second directory within the second network.
