Prerequisite before starting

  • For this "Getting started", we will use the command-line tool Curl.
  • The API requires the generation of an API-Key
  • Your Orange Business representative will provide you this API key
  • The API key must be added to HTTP headers of each API call.
  • The header is X-Api-Key.
  • The API requires also the generation of an API-Key. API-Key expires after 2 years and must be renewed by asking to Orange Support.

Authentication prerequisite

Access to this API is secured by the OAuth 2.0 framework with the Client Credentials grant type, which means that you will have to present an OAuth 2.0 access_token whenever you want to request this API.

It's easy to negotiate this access_token: just send a request to the proper token negotiation endpoint, with a Basic Authentication header valued with your own client_id and client_secret.

For this API, the token negotiation endpoint is:

https://api.orange.com/oauth/v3/token

A technical guide is available to learn how to negotiate and manage these access_token.

        "step": "REQUEST",

]

Filter the orders list

You have the possibility to filter a collection by adding to the URI some attributes.

Example to retrieve all my generic orders

Request

  • Add the following parameters to the URL :type=C_GENERIC_S1.
curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: {access_token}" \
    -H "X-API-key: {dev_key}" \
    https://api.orange.com/ordering/b2b/v3/requests?type=C_GENERIC_S1

Response

  • List of your filtered orders in a json format

Pagination of the orders list

The API provides a pagination mechanism with the following query parameters

  • offset: The index of the first element to retrieve. Zero is the first item of the collection.
  • limit: The maximum number of items to return.
  • sort: The comma-separated list of field names to sort the result. Prefixing a field name with a "-" sign will indicate a descending order.

Thanks to these 3 query parameters, you are able to retrieve CIs page per page.

Example: to get the next 20 Orders from the 10th Order of the global list and ordered by the priority:

Request

  • Add the following parameters to the URL :offset=10&limit=20&sort=-createdAt.
curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: {access_token}" \
    -H "X-API-key: {dev_key}" \
    https://api.orange.com/ordering/b2b/v3/requests?offset=10&limit=20&sort=-createdAt

Response

  • List of 20 orders in a json format

curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: {access_token}" \
    -H "X-API-key: {dev_key}" \
    https://api.orange.com/ordering/b2b/v3/requests/{Order_id}
