PRs

New PRs

  • PR #67: Update CAMARA Mobile Device Identifier API.yaml

    • Commonalities v0.4.0 allows x-correlator to be any string, and not restricted to being a uuid.

    • Therefore "format: uuid" needs to be removed from the definition.

Existing PRs

  • PR #64: Incorporate Commonalities WG recommendations on Simplification of Device object

    • Add Commonalities WG recommended text on "Identifying a device from the access token"

    • Add 422 error response option

    • Explicitly define request body as optional

    • Description updated to replace device with mobile subscription identifier as appropriate 

MEETING UPDATE:

  •  

    • Huub commented that line 71 implies the access token follows a certain implementation

      • "The server will extract the mobile subscription identifier (e.g. MSISDN) from the access token, if available."

      • This text needs to be revised to be more implementation neutral. MSISDN to be replaced by phone number.

    • Keep PR open until Aug 9, 2024 to see if Commonalities revise current solution for Device object handling

ACTIONS:

  •  

    • @Eric Murray to revise wording of line 71

  • Issue #61: Simplification of Device object - short term solution

    • Commonalties proposes to revise DeviceObject

      • Should be optional, with 3-legged access token normally used to identify the mobile subscription

      • If 2-legged token is used, device object should be provided to API

      • Network Access Identifier (3GPP External Id) option to be removed as support not common

Discussions

New Discussions

None

Existing Discussions

  • Discussion #36: Alternative device identifiers

    • An alternative proposal is to salt the IMEI with an API consumer specific salt and then hash it

    • This would a less useful identifier (only useful to the API consumer) but easier to justify providing under an opt-out or no consent basis

    • Use cases for such an alternative identifier are not clear

AGREEMENT: Leave discussion open for now, but prioritise returning IMEI / IMEISV

Closed Discussions

None

Other Issues

  • None

AOB

  • Next meeting proposed to be held Friday 6th September 2024 @ 09:00 BST using Zoom
