IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, SERVER DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes first and second token request transmission units, first and second token reception units, a storage unit, and a device resource request transmission unit. The first token request transmission unit transmits a first token acquisition request containing device credential information. The first token reception unit receives a first token corresponding to the device credential information. The storage unit stores the received first token. The second token transmission unit acquires the stored first token and sends a second token acquisition request containing the acquired first token and identification information for identifying a management unit that manages a device resource. The second token reception unit receives a second token corresponding to the identification information. The device resource request transmission unit transmits a request for a process related to a device resource, the request containing the received second token.

主权项

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a first token request transmission unit configured to transmit, to a server device, a first token acquisition request containing credential information of a device; a first token reception unit configured to receive, from the server device, a first token corresponding to the credential information of the device; a storage unit configured to store the first token received by the first token reception unit; a second token transmission unit configured to acquire the first token stored in the storage unit and send, to the server device, a second token acquisition request containing the acquired first token and identification information for identifying a management unit that manages a device resource; a second token reception unit configured to receive, from the server device, a second token corresponding to the identification information; and a device resource request transmission unit configured to transmit, to the server device, a request for a process related to a device resource, the request containing the second token received by the second token reception unit.
