METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DYNAMICALLY RECONFIGURING MOBILE DEVICES FROM PRIMARY TO SECONDARY SERVICES BASED ON PUSHED DATA

摘要

A new approach is proposed to support automated dynamic reconfiguration of a mobile device of a client from using a primary document service to a secondary document service by the same service provider based on pushed data received via the mobile device. When the client logs in to his/her account at the primary cloud-based document service by default and later receives an invite sent by another client via the secondary document appliance, a document app on the client's mobile device would automatically reconfigure itself to use the secondary document appliance for a specific set of operations on a document as required by the invite instead. The client may then access the secondary document appliance to view the document, sign it, and complete the entire process within the document app. Following the client's completion of the operations, the document app is automatically reconfigured back to use its primary cloud-based document service.
