Abstract
An approach is provided for facilitating the delivery of content to a device through activation of an indicator executable on the device. One or more user devices are determined to receive the content from a content delivery platform using an electronic directory service. An application to provide an indicator representing the content is pushed to the device for initiating a request for the content from the device. In response to the request, a determination is made as to whether to grant the request for delivery of the content to the device.
