Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for activating features of software products at a client device utilizing a features set ID embedded in an access token. In particular, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems and methods provide a master feature registry to a client device in conjunction with downloading a software product. Moreover, upon authenticating a user of the client device, the disclosed systems and methods generate a feature set ID indicating the software products the user is permitted to access. The disclosed systems and methods embed the generated feature set ID into an access token and send the access token to the client device. The client device can utilize the embedded feature set ID in conjunction with the master feature registry to identify authorized features. Moreover, the client device can activate the authorized features in relation to the software product.
