Abstract
Techniques are described for facilitating file access control of a storage service. In response to a third-party application requesting access to a user's file, the service extracts an application-specific ID from a file type associated with the retrieved file; and grants access to the requested file in response to a determination that an application-specific ID for the third-party application matches an application-specific ID extracted from the file. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.
