Abstract

A method of screen sharing include receiving, by a first server device and from a user device, device information corresponding to the user device, generating, by the first server device, a device identifier (ID) based on the device information, receiving, by the first server device and from the user device, a request for a token, generating, by the first server device, a token based on the device ID, and sending, by the first server device, the token to the user device.

Claims (47)

1. A method of screen sharing, comprising:

receiving, by a first server device and from a user device, device information corresponding to the user device;

generating, by the first server device, a device identifier (ID) based on the device information;

receiving, by the first server device and from the user device, a request for a token;

generating, by the first server device, a token based on the device ID; and

sending, by the first server device, the token to the user device;

sending, by the user device, the generated token to a second server device;

in response to receiving the generated token from the user device, sending, by the second server device and to the user device, a notification that the generated token has been confirmed; and

in response to receiving the notification that the generated token has been confirmed, accepting, by the user device, a screen sharing request for sharing a screen of the user device with the second server device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining, by the first server device, whether the generated token is unique from in-use tokens; and

generating, by the first server device, a subsequent token when the previously generated token is determined to not be unique from in-use tokens.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising setting, by the first server device, a validity time period for the token.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the validity time period is set based on a predetermined time period.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising mapping, by the first server device, the token to the device ID.

6. A system for screen sharing, comprising:

a user device;

a first server device configured to:

receive, from the user device, device information corresponding to the user device;

generate a device identifier (ID) based on the device information;

receive, from the user device, a request for a token;

generate a token based on the device ID; and

send the token to the user device; and

a second server device,

wherein the user device is configured to send the generated token to the second server device,

wherein the second server device is configured to, in response to receiving the generated token from the user device, send, to the user device, a notification that the generated token has been confirmed, and

wherein the user device is further configured to, in response to receiving the notification that the generated token has been confirmed, accept, by the user device, a screen sharing request for sharing a screen of the user device with the second server device.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first server device is further configured to:

determine whether the generated token is unique from in-use tokens; and

generate a subsequent token when the previously generated token is determined to not be unique from in-use tokens.

8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first server device is further configured to set a validity time period for the token.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the validity time period is set based on a predetermined time period.

10. The system of claim 6 , wherein the first server device is further configured to map the token to the device ID.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

receive, by a first server device and from a user device, device information corresponding to the user device;

generate, by the first server device, a device identifier (ID) based on the device information;

receive, by the first server device and from the user device, a request for a token;

generate, by the first server device, a token based on the device ID;

send, by the first server device, the token to the user device;

send, by the user device, the generated token to a second server device;

in response to receiving the generated token from the user device, send, by the second server device and to the user device, a notification that the generated token has been confirmed; and

in response to receiving the notification that the generated token has been confirmed, accept, by the user device, a screen sharing request for sharing a screen of the user device with the second server device.

12. The storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the at least one processor to:

determine, by the first server device, whether the generated token is unique from in-use tokens; and

generate, by the first server device, a subsequent token when the previously generated token is determined to not be unique from in-use tokens.

13. The storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the at least one processor to set, by the first server device, a validity time period for the token.

14. The storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the validity time period is set based on a predetermined time period.
