Abstract

Examples of multi-persona account management in client devices are described. In one example, a client device can host a personal workspace, such as for personal data and applications of a user of the client device, along with a separate alternate persona workspace for work-related data and applications of the user. The client device interfaces with a management computing environment to enroll in device management services and establish an alternate persona workspace on the client device. The client device receives a token for the alternate persona workspace from the management computing environment, creates the alternate persona workspace, and installs an interface service in the alternate persona workspace. The client device also associates an alternate persona account with the alternate persona workspace using the token and returns a service identifier to the management computing environment. The management computing environment remotely administers applications installed in the alternate persona workspace using the service identifier.
