Number Verification API: Enhancing security with seamless authentication
To use this API, subscribe to Network APIs Playground
Number Verification API is part of the set of Network APIs under CAMARA open source project by Orange.
This playground version provides responses for:
- predefined phone numbers associated with the unassigned country code +990 (e.g +99012345678)
- user-defined phone numbers added using the Network APIs Playground - Admin API
What it does?
The Number Verification API allows to check if the provided mobile phone number is the one actually used in the device. The service verifies that the user is using a device with the same mobile phone number as the one which is declared for this user. It also makes it possible for the application consuming this API to get the number itself by returning the phone number associated with the authenticated user's access token.
How it works?
The API is used by an application to get information about a mobile line phone number. It can be easily integrated and used through this secured API and allows Service Providers to get this information easily and securely. The API manages 2 resources answering 2 distinct questions:
- Is the user input phone number the actual number associated with the mobile line?
- What is the phone number associated with an access token?
