Abstract
A cross-tenant authentication system is described. The system receives a user token from a client device that is registered with a first tenant of a service application of a server. The system receives a request, from the client device, to access a second feature of a second tenant of the service application. The second feature of the second tenant of the service application is separate from a first feature of the first tenant of the service application. The second feature is only accessible to devices registered with the second tenant of the service application. The system authenticates the request by validating the user token from the client device and determines a cross-tenant policy of the second tenant of the service application based on the user token. The system forms an identity object based on the cross-tenant policy.
