Integrating Data Plan Selection

Hello All,

I’m not a developer, but am doing research for the company I work for. We are looking to develop an app that uses a SIM card and are wanting to give the user the ability to sign up, choose, and activate different rate plans via our in-house app. From what I have read and the little bit I understand this would only be accomplished by using the REST API and the respective SDK? Apologies if this has already been explained and I failed to find it.

Hi @lloyd.daniel ,

Yes, the access to the AT&T API Marketplace is either through our SDKs or via REST.
However, I’m not sure which of the offered services (described here - https://apimarket.att.com/developer) will meet your scenario

Thanks,
Meron

@MeronElpaz ,

Thank you for such a quick response and the help!

@MeronElpaz,

I do have a follow-up question regarding the offered services. I’m not looking for the users to use messaging, voice and video calls, chat, but just to sign up for a data plan of a SIM and receive a push notification. Would any of the APIs in the marketplace still be applicable? My assumption would be no, but wanted to confirm. My assumption from my novice understanding is that the push notification relies on the respective SDK, but signing up for the plan would depend on the REST API that doesn’t fit in any of the categories of the ones in the marketplace.

@lloyd.daniel , the API marketplace doesn’t support data plan assignments.
We do support push notifications but only for data related to the offered services (e.g. incoming call, incoming chat/SMS etc…)

@MeronElpaz, thank you for the clarification.
