Combined Authorization Process |
| 摘要 |
Some embodiments provide a method for a first device to join a group of related devices. The method receives input of a password for an account with a centralized entity and a code generated by a second device in the group. When the second device determines that the code input on the first device matches the generated code, the method receives an authentication code from the second device for authorizing the first device with the entity as a valid device for the account. The method uses the password and information regarding the first device to generate an application to the group. After sending the application to the second device, the method receives information from the second device that enables the first device to add itself to the group. The second device verifies the generated application, and the method uses the information received from the second device to join the group. |

1. For a first device, a method for joining a group of related devices:
receiving input of (i) a password for authorization for a particular account with a centralized entity and (ii) a code generated by a second device already established in the group of related devices; when the second device determines that the code input on the first device matches the generated code, receiving an authentication code from the second device for use in authorizing the first device with the centralized entity as a valid device for the particular account; using (i) the password input on the first device and (ii) information regarding the first device to generate an application to the group of related devices; after sending the application to the second device, receiving information from the second device that enables the first device to add itself to the group of related devices, wherein the second device verifies the generated application but cannot add the first device to the group of related devices because it does not store the password; and using the information received from the second device to join the group of related devices. |
