A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11930001B2) discloses a system for polling federated services, involving a computing device with a processor and memory that executes machine-readable instructions. These instructions enable the device to send queries to federated services using access tokens associated with user accounts, receive responses containing notifications and actions for users, and send these notifications to a client application chosen by the user during registration. The system aims to streamline communication between federated services and users by facilitating the delivery of relevant information to designated client applications.

Furthermore, the patent includes claims for methods and non-transitory computer-readable mediums for polling federated services. These claims detail the process of sending queries, receiving responses with events and actions, and forwarding this information to client applications. The system also involves identifying client applications based on authentication credentials, pushing notifications to client devices, and utilizing email or SMS messages for communication. By outlining a comprehensive approach to polling federated services, the patent seeks to enhance user experience and efficiency in accessing and responding to notifications from various federated services. Overall, the patent presents a structured system that leverages access tokens, client applications, and notifications to facilitate seamless communication between users and federated services.
