The technology described herein improves data security and software functionality in an integrated application deployment. Security is improved by providing granular permission management to application resources at the application program interface (API) level. This granular control allows the primary application to provide access to only the minimal resources the secondary application needs to complete a task. The technology described herein provides a more efficient access control scheme by facilitating group management of permissions. The technology described herein also improves an application update process by eliminating the need for permissions to be reassigned every time a primary application or secondary application is updated. Finally, the technology described herein provides a centralized permission enforcement that is independent of the primary or secondary application.
