System and method for integrating data from a remote server with a client application
The electronic device may invoke a host application. The device may display a first host user interface on the display, the first host user interface including a first host user interface component associated with a child application. In response, the device may invoke, using the host application, the child application executed at the electronic device. The device may transmit, using the host application, a request for data associated with a child user interface component to the child application. The device may transmit, using the child application, the request for data associated with the child user interface component to a child application server, wherein the data associated with the child user interface component is inaccessible by the host application. The device may receive, using the child application, the data associated with the child user interface component from the child application server. The device may display the child user interface component.
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
displaying a host user interface of a host application associated with a host server and executed by a one or more processors of a user device, wherein the host user interface includes a child user interface component;
receiving, at the user device, a selection of the child user interface component;
invoking a child application, wherein the child application is invoked in response to the selection of the child user interface component, wherein the child application is associated with a child application server, wherein the child application server is distinct from the host server, and wherein the child application is executed by the one or more processors of the user device;
receiving user data via a child user interface of the child application, wherein a portion of the user data includes sensitive information;
segmenting, by the child application and using the one or more processors, the portion of the user data including the sensitive information, wherein segmenting includes encrypting the portion of the user data in accordance with a security model of the child application, and wherein segmenting allows the user device to receive the sensitive information without access by the host application; and
displaying the sensitive information, wherein segmenting allows display of the sensitive information without exposing the sensitive information to the host application, and wherein displaying the sensitive information is provided with an editing functionality to change or enter additional data.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising: transmitting the sensitive information, wherein when the sensitive information is transmitted as encrypted with the security model of the child application, the sensitive information is transmitted to the child application server.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein segmenting allows the user device to receive the sensitive information without access by the host application.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising initiating a checkout payment transaction or a credit application via an interface element presented with the display of the sensitive information.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the user data includes one or more of a credit applicant name, a credit applicant address, a credit applicant phone number, a credit applicant government identifier, or a credit applicant date of birth.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the sensitive information is performed via the child user interface component using the host application.
7. A user device, comprising:
a display;
a memory storing instructions; and
one or more processors coupled to the memory and the display, wherein when executed by the one or more processors, the instructions cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:
displaying a host user interface of a host application associated with a host server and executed by the one or more processors, wherein the host user interface includes a child user interface component;
receiving, at the user device, a selection of the child user interface component;
invoking a child application, wherein the child application is invoked in response to the selection of the child user interface component, wherein the child application is associated with a child application server, wherein the child application server is distinct from the host server, and wherein the child application is executed by the one or more processors;
receiving user data via a child user interface of the child application, wherein a portion of the user data includes sensitive information;
segmenting, by the child application, the portion of the user data including the sensitive information, wherein segmenting includes encrypting the portion of the user data in accordance with a security model of the child application, and wherein segmenting is performed using the one or more processors, and wherein segmenting allows the user device to receive the sensitive information without access by the host application; and
displaying the sensitive information, wherein segmenting allows displaying the sensitive information without exposing the sensitive information to the host application, and wherein displaying the sensitive information is provided via a user interface with an editing functionality to change or enter additional data.
8. The user device of claim 7 , wherein when executed by the one or more processors, the instructions cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
transmitting the sensitive information, wherein when the sensitive information is transmitted as encrypted with the security model of the child application, the sensitive information is transmitted to the child application server.
9. The user device of claim 7 , wherein segmenting allows the user device to receive the sensitive information without access by the host application.
10. The user device of claim 7 , wherein when executed by the one or more processors, the instructions cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
a checkout payment transaction or a credit application via an interface element presented with the display of the sensitive information.
11. The user device of claim 7 , wherein the user data includes one or more of a credit applicant name, a credit applicant address, a credit applicant phone number, a credit applicant government identifier, or a credit applicant date of birth.
12. The user device of claim 7 , wherein displaying the sensitive information is performed via the child user interface component using the host application.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user device, cause the user device to perform operations including:
displaying a host user interface of a host application associated with a host server and executed by the one or more processors, wherein the host user interface includes a child user interface component;
receiving, at the user device, a selection of the child user interface component;
invoking a child application, wherein the child application is invoked in response to the selection of the child user interface component, wherein the child application is associated with a child application server, wherein the child application server is distinct from the host server, and wherein the child application is executed by the one or more processors of the user device;
receiving user data via a child user interface of the child application, wherein a portion of the user data includes sensitive information;
segmenting, by the child application, the portion of the user data including the sensitive information, wherein segmenting includes encrypting the portion of the user data in accordance with a security model of the child application, and wherein segmenting is performed using the one or more processors of the user device, and wherein segmenting allows the user device to receive the sensitive information without access by the host application; and
displaying the sensitive information, wherein segmenting allows display of the sensitive information without exposing the sensitive information to the host application, and wherein displaying the sensitive information is provided with an editing functionality to change or enter additional data.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the instructions further cause the user device to perform operations comprising:
transmitting the sensitive information, wherein when the sensitive information is transmitted as encrypted with the security model of the child application, the sensitive information is transmitted to the child application server.
