Graphical user interface and execution service for enabling limited-privilege users to control wire-transfer application functions in a secure computing environment

Abstract

Computing environments can enable user initiation of wire-transfer application functionalities according to some aspects described herein. For example, a selection by a user of an option in a graphical user interface can be detected. The option can be for initiating a selected functionality of a wire-transfer application in a computing environment, and the user may not be authorized in the computing environment to interact with the wire-transfer application outside of the graphical user interface. In response, a text file can be generated that includes data identifying the selected functionality. The text file can be stored in a predefined storage location that is monitored by the execution service. The execution service can automatically detect a presence of the text file in the predefined storage location. In response, the execution service can automatically issue a command to the wire-transfer application for causing the wire-transfer application to execute the selected functionality.
