Abstract

Source data stored on a source device may be shared with other devices. Sharing the source data may include facilitating communication associated with the source data, based on a communication protocol, between a first device and another device. Receiving a first token associated with the source data may be facilitated. The first token may be encoded to generate a visual tag. An image of the visual tag may be provided to enable a second device to capture the image, retrieve the first token after decoding the visual tag, and use the first token to access the source data utilizing a communication protocol.
