receiving, at an application routing platform, an API call for an application platform comprising a signed tenant token;
determining, using a processor, that the signed tenant token is valid;
determining an application platform token for the application platform;
associating a root certificate with the application platform token;
determining routing information to the application platform based at least in part on the API call; and
providing the application platform the API call and the application platform token using the routing information to enable access to the application platform, wherein the application platform determines whether the application platform token is valid using the root certificate and executes the API call in response to a determination that the application platform token is valid.
