Abstract

In a method for generating at least one smart link, a plurality of destination digital resources is received. At least one smart link is generated based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the at least one smart link provides configurable access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

Claims (36)

1 . A computer-implemented method for generating at least one smart link, the method comprising:

receiving a plurality of destination digital resources for accessing multiple destinations resources; and

generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the at least one smart link provides configurable access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link; wherein the generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources comprises:

configuring access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources comprises generating a plurality of smart links based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the plurality of smart links comprises smart links of at least two different types.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one smart link comprises at least one of a Quick Response (QR) code, a Near-Field-Communication (NFC) tag, and a shortened uniform resource locator (URL).

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the configuring access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link comprises:

configuring configuration settings for controlling access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

6 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

7 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on a time of day of the interaction.

8 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on information about a device interacting with the at least one smart link.

9 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on a location of the interaction.

10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving an update to the plurality of destination digital resources associated with the at least one smart link; and

updating the at least one smart link to direct an interaction with the at least one smart link according to the update.

11 . A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code stored thereon for causing a computer system to perform a method for generating a plurality of smart links, the method comprising:

receiving a plurality of destination digital resources for accessing multiple destinations resources; and

generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the at least one smart link provides configurable access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link; wherein the generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources comprises:

configuring access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

12 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the generating at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources comprises generating a plurality of smart links based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the plurality of smart links comprises smart links of at least two different types.

13 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the at least one smart link comprises at least one of a Quick Response (QR) code, a Near-Field-Communication (NFC) tag, and a shortened uniform resource locator (URL).

14 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the configuring access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link comprises:

configuring configuration settings for controlling access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

15 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 14 wherein the configuration settings provide access to one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

16 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on a time of day of the interaction.

17 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on information about a device interacting with the at least one smart link.

18 . The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein the configuration settings provide access to at least one destination digital resource of the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link and based on a location of the interaction.

19 . A computer system comprising:

a data storage unit; and

a processor coupled with the data storage unit, the processor configured to:

receive a plurality of destination digital resources for accessing multiple destinations resources;

generate at least one smart link based on the plurality of destination digital resources, wherein the at least one smart link provides configurable access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link; and

configure access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.

20 . The computer system of claim 19 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

configure configuration settings for controlling access to the plurality of destination digital resources in response to an interaction with the at least one smart link.
