SIM Verify France - Mobile ID

0.1

• 1.0 (current)
• 0.1 (deprecated)

The SIM Verify API gives you information whether a SIM change has occurred recently for a user, reducing fraud risk. It is applicable to any mass-market Orange France mobile customer, and includes SOSH customers.

Before starting

Our SIM Verify API requires a 2-legged authentication with our OpenID Connect platform. Please follow the method described here.

Retrieve Orange customer's information

You need to provide a valid access token in the HTTP Authorization header to invoke the SIM Verify API. You also need to provide information about the end-user's identifier:

As an example:

curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer OFR_FJSyJ...Gms_a92e3fb8b16...0a75ef4" \
    "https://api.orange.com/sim_verify_france/v1/checksimswap?user_id_type=MSISDN&user_id=33611223344&age=5" 

a/ If the transaction succeed

On success, the SIM Verify API returns a 200 OK HTTP status code with JSON data indicating whether the SIM card has been swapped recently, i.e. between the current time and the delay represented by the "age" parameter.

As an example:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 26
Content-Type: application/json
X-OAPI-Request-Id: abZ32h66

{
  "swapped": "false"
}

b/ If the transaction failed

In case of error, the SIM Verify API returns an error response (JSON format) with the following information:

• error_code (required): short localized string that describes the error.
• error_description (required): human-readable ASCII text providing additional information, used to assist the developer in understanding the error that occurred.

If the access_token is expired, revoked or invalid, a 401 Unauthorized HTTP status code is returned with the invalid_token error code. In that case, you'll have to renew the access token.

HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
    error="invalid_token", 
    error_description="The access token provided is expired, revoked, malformed, or invalid for other reasons" 
}

If the user_id_type is missing, a 400 Bad Request HTTP status code is returned with the following JSON response:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
   "code": "invalid_request",
   "error_description": "REQUIRED parameter user_id_type is missing."
}

If the user_id_type is invalid, a 400 Bad Request HTTP status code is returned with the following JSON response:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
   "code": "invalid_request",
   "error_description": "REQUIRED parameter user_id_type is invalid."
}

If the user doesn't exist, a 400 Bad Request HTTP status code is returned with the following JSON response:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
   "error_code": "access_denied",
   "error_description": "The user is unknown."
}

If the user is not eligible for the SIM Verify API, a 400 Bad Request HTTP status code is returned with the following JSON response:

HTTP/1.1 400 Bad request
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
   "code": "access_denied",
   "error_description": "The user is ineligible."
}

If an internal error occurred, a 500 Bad Request HTTP status code is returned with the following JSON response::

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Error
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
   "code": "server_error",
   "error_description": "Internal Server Error"
}

Please note that common errors which format is not fully compliant with OpenID Connect standard may also be returned.

HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

{
    "code": 60,
    "message": "Resource not found",
    "description": "The requested URI does not exist."
}
