Abstract

Techniques for cross-service auditable transitive identity propagation are described. A first application seeking to access a resource managed or provided by a second application receives a first access token generated by an identity provider. The first application performs one or more token exchanges, using the first access token, to obtain a second access token generated by an identity service. The second access token includes identity information associated with a user in a directory associated with the identity service. The first application provides the second access token to the second application as part of a request to access the resource. The second application utilizes the user identity information from the second token to perform fine-grained access control and can include user identity information in logs or events enabling auditing.
