IPC Code(s): G06F21/62, G06F21/60
CPC Code(s): G06F21/6218
Abstract: systems and methods for generating object references with selectable scopes are provided. the systems and methods perform operations including calling, by a first entity, a reference generator function using one or more arguments associated with a database object that the first entity is authorized to access according to a first set of access privileges, the one or more arguments comprising a scope definition that defines persistence of a reference. the operations include obtaining, from the reference generator function, a reference to the database object, the reference persisting according to the scope definition. the operations include passing the reference to a second entity to enable the second entity to perform one or more database operations on the database object according to a second set of access privileges derived from the first set of access privileges.
