US Patent 11658958 Maintaining session stickiness across authentication and authorization channels for access management

Techniques are described that enable maintaining of session stickiness across authentication and authorization channels in an access management system, through the use an identifier for an access manager from a plurality of access managers. The access manager authenticates a user of a client device based on an authentication request. In response to response to successful authentication of the user, the access manager creates a session. The access manager also generates the identifier and causes the identifier to be stored for the session. The access manager can then receive a second request, which is sent to the access manager based on identifying the access manager using the stored identifier.
