Abstract

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for provisioning a new user to a cloud-based system through a pre-registration process where the cloud-based system generates a tokenized resource identifier based on the user's registration information provided by an external service provider and through a registration process where the user accesses the cloud-based system using the tokenized resource identifier and the cloud-based system completes the registration of the user when the user's registration information in the cloud-based system is verified against the corresponding registration information maintained by the external service provider. Once the registration is complete, data related to the registered user may be synchronized between the cloud-based system and the external service provider.
