SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECEIVING REQUESTS FOR TASKS FROM UNREGISTERED DEVICES
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a memory;
one or more processors coupled to said memory;
wherein said memory comprises program instructions executable by the processor to implement a communication interface service configured to;
receive a message from a communication device, the message indicating a request to perform a task;
determine that said communication device is not registered with an existing account that provides information for performing said task;
obtain from the communication device via a communication channel, identification and authentication information for an existing account;
wherein said existing account is accessible through a network-based interface;
wherein said communication channel does not include said network-based interface; and
use the identification and authentication information for performance of the task using the existing account.

Abstract
Embodiments of a system and method for receiving task requests from unregistered devices are described. Embodiments may include a communication interface service configured to receive from a communication device a message indicative of a request to perform a task. The communication interface service may determine that the communication device is not registered with an existing account that provides information for performing said task. The communication interface service may obtain identification and authentication information for an existing account via a communication channel. The existing account may be an account for that is accessible via a network-based interface. The communication channel through which the identification and authentication information is received by the communication interface service may be any communication channel that does not include the network-based interface of the existing account. Additionally, the communication interface service may use the identification and authentication information for performance of the task using the existing account.
