Abstract
A method of generating a pre-authenticated link to access a private feed and providing access to the private feed using the pre-authenticated link. A request to access the private feed is received and a first user sending the request is authenticated. A token for the first user is generated when the first user is authorized to access the private feed. The token may identify the first user, the private feed and an owner of the private feed. The token may be embedded within a link and transmitted to the first user. A user is automatically authorized to access the private feed when the token is sent by the user using the link. The link automatically authenticates the first user and allows access to the private feed. The private feed may become inaccessible to the first user when the owner of the private feed revokes access of the first user.
