Systems and methods for expedited entitlement checks
View Patent ↗Systems and methods for managing access data are disclosed. One method can comprise receiving prediction information relating to one or more content options and requesting access information associated with the prediction information. At least a portion of the received access information can be processed to provide a preliminary access decision. A request for access relating to the one or more data options can be received and an access decision based at least in part on the preliminary access decision can be provided.
1. A method comprising:
receiving information associated with one or more video content items, wherein the information indicates that the one or more video content items are predicted for selection by a user;
determining, based on the information, one or more preliminary access decisions corresponding to the one or more video content items;
receiving a request for access to a video content item of the one or more video content items; and
determining, based on a preliminary access decision of the one or more preliminary access decisions corresponding to the video content item, a final access decision.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information comprises at least one of: access information or media metadata.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the access information comprises at least one of: user information, a billing status, or a package-channel assignment.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the media metadata comprises at least one of availability dates or a subscription policy.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing, in a cache, the one or more preliminary access decisions.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the information associated with the one or more video content items comprises receiving, based on presenting via a user interface a selectable element associated with the one or more video content items, the information associated with the one or more video content items.
7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
receiving, based on presenting via the user interface a selectable element associated with one or more other video content items, information associated with the one or more other video content items; and
determining, based on the information associated with the one or more other video content items, one or more other preliminary access decisions for the one or more other video content items.
8. A method comprising:
receiving, based on an indication that a first video content item of one or more first video content items is predicted for selection by a user, first information associated with the first video content item;
determining, based on the first information, a first preliminary access decision corresponding to the first video content item;
receiving, based on an indication that a second video content item of one or more second video content items is predicted for selection by the user, second information associated with the second video content item; and
determining, based on the second information, a second preliminary access decision corresponding to the second video content item.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising receiving a request to access the second video content item of the one or more second video content items.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising determining, based on the second preliminary access decision, a final access decision.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein at least one of: the first information or the second information comprises at least one of: access information or media metadata.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the access information comprises at least one of: user information, a billing status, or a package-channel assignment.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the media metadata comprises at least one of: availability dates or a subscription policy.
14. The method of claim 8 , further comprising storing, in a cache, the first preliminary access decision or the second preliminary access decision.
15. A method comprising:
receiving prediction information associated with a plurality of video content items;
determining, based on the prediction information, one or more video content items of the plurality of video content items, wherein the one or more video content items are predicted for selection by a user;
retrieving information associated with the one or more video content items;
determining, based on the information associated with the one or more video content items, one or more preliminary access decisions corresponding to the one or more video content items;
receiving a request for access to a video content item of the one or more video content items; and
determining, based on a preliminary access decision of the one or more preliminary access decisions corresponding to the video content item, a final access decision.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the information associated with the one or more video content items comprises at least one of: access information or media metadata.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the access information comprises at least one of: user information, a billing status, or a package-channel assignment.
18. The method of claim 16 , wherein the media metadata comprises at least one of: availability dates or a subscription policy.
19. The method of claim 15 , further comprising storing, in a cache, the one or more preliminary access decisions.
20. The method of claim 15 , wherein the prediction information comprises at least one of: a user viewing history or a device viewing history.
