    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system and a method for performing operations comprising: receiving, by a messaging application implemented on a client device, a request to access a first version of a third-party resource; determining that a second version of the third-party resource was previously authorized by the messaging application; in response to determining that the second version of the third-party resource was previously authorized by the messaging application, identifying, by the messaging application, user account information generated using the second version of the third-party resource; and merging, by the messaging application, the user account information generated using the second version of the third-party resource with the first version of the third-party resource.

    Abstract: In one or more implementations, a camera user interface of a client application may be accessed from a third-party application. The camera user interface may be modified based on input from a developer of the third-party application. Modifications to the camera user interface may be made according to a framework provided by a service provider related to the client application. The modifications to the camera user interface of the client application may be directed to modifying one or more user interface elements of an initial version of the camera user interface, modifying functionality available via the initial version of the camera user interface, or adding information related to the third-party application into the initial version of the camera user interface.

    Abstract: A stated age filter is embedded in a computer-implemented application and is configured to limit users' access to features of the computer-implemented application based on the user's stated age. The stated age filter is constructed in the form of a software development kit (SDK) and may be used in the context of a messaging system that hosts a backend service for an associated messaging client, where the backend service is also the SDK provider system. The stated age filter permits a computer-implemented application to request and obtain, from a prospective user of the application, an authorization to communicate with the messaging system in order to verify whether the user's age, as self-reported to the messaging system, is equal to or greater than the minimum age requirement specified by the computer-implemented application.

    Abstract: A bidirectional bridge for web view is a technical solution to an engineering challenge associated with presenting external content in a web view. A bidirectional bridge for web view facilitates bidirectional communication between the web view included in the messaging client and the messaging client itself. In response to a user action requesting a web page to be loaded in the web view, the bidirectional bridge initiates a request to messaging client to retrieve external content, receives the requested external content from the messaging client, and displays an image representing the external content in the web view as part of the web page.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for sharing authentication information are provided. The systems and methods include generating, with a messaging application, a media item using a camera of a client device; identifying a target application that has been authorized by the messaging application to share authentication information with the messaging application; generating a share option associated with the media item for display in a graphical user interface of the messaging application; and in response to receiving a user selection of the share option, enabling the target application to access the media item.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for displaying augmented reality content. The program and method provide for receiving, from a first application running on a device, a request to switch to a second application on the device, the request identifying augmented reality content to display with image data captured by a camera of the device; providing, in response to receiving the request, for switching from the first application to the second application; providing for the second application to activate the camera to capture the image data; and providing for the second application to display the image data captured by the camera with the augmented reality content.

    Abstract: The technical problem of adding content that originates from a third party application to an augmented reality component maintained by a messaging server system is addressed by configuring the augmented reality component to modify content captured by a camera according to values of one or more attributes and by permitting delivery of said values, from the third party application to the messaging server system, in the payload of a deep link that references the identification of the augmented reality component.
