What is it?
The API Place APIs provide standardized mechanisms for:
- managing your parties,
- consulting Orange Wholesale catalog,
- placing a quote,
- placing an order and ensuring the follow up,
- consulting your inventory,
- contact support on specific product offering.
API Place APIs are based on TM Forum's suite. These are REST-based Open APIs which have been collaboratively developed to be used in a range of scenarios, internally enabling service providers to transform their IT and operational agility and customer centricity, while externally delivering a practical approach to seamless end-to-end management complex digital services.

A test environment is available. To use this environment, you need to subscribe to the discover version of the API Place APIs (links available below):

- API Place - Quote Management - TMF 648
This environment allows you to test your developments.
Note that
- The orders will not go into production
- The contact database is not shared with production, so you have to create contacts using the API Party management to make orders.
- The webservice eRDV is not needed on this environment. To post orders, you will have to send a generic appointment identifier. The format is described here
- We recomend that you use 2 separate apps to subscribe: 1 for the discover API and 1 for the API of production
- The identifiers of your collect will be different between the test environment and the production one
