Abstract
A method, system, and manufacture for authorizing an untrusted client device for access on a content management system. The content management system receives a request from an untrusted client device to access content on the content management system. The content management system sends an authentication key to the untrusted client device. The content management system then receives the authentication key from a trusted client device. Based on the matching authentication key, the content management system transmits data to the untrusted client device in accordance with any additional instructions that the trusted client device may have sent.
