Issue (Release Management) - Align asynchronous response with CloudEvents format to ensure compliance with Commonalities r3.3

The asynchronous response in PredictiveConnectivityData and Population Density Data does not comply with Commonalities r3.3 (uses application/json instead of CloudEvents).

Status: An issue (#533) has been created in the commonalities group to address this issue. Once a decision has been made, it will be applied to this issue

Feb 17, 2026: The fix has been uploaded to commonalities: #575. It explains that an asynchronous response is not really an event. And that although it is recommended to use `sink` and `sinkCredential`, the cloudevents model should not be used.

  • Status: changes in PR#123 - Review by the group.

#110

Orange

Provide a list of GeoHashes in the API request: Add support for GEOHASHLIST as a new areaType, allowing developers to send a list of geohashes (precision 7) in the request.

Goal: Improve request precision and predict response volume.

Note: This would complement, not replace, the current area definition method.

  • Status: changes in PR#123 - Review by the group.

Release Management

v0 validation callers disabled in favor of CAMARA Validation

Following the merge of #122 which installed the CAMARA Validation workflow (.github/workflows/camara-validation.yml, pinned to camaraproject/tooling@v1-rc), the legacy v0 validation callers have been disabled by the admin team to avoid duplicate validation runs on every PR. No codeowner action required. The disabled workflow files will be removed as part of a dedicated cleanup campaign at v1 GA.

#127

Marketing WG

Proposal: CAMARA Mobility Analytics APIs Whitepaper: The CAMARA Marketing Working Group has discussed the strong external impact generated by the recently published whitepaper “CAMARA APIs: Functional Differences”, which compared SIM Swap, Device Swap, Tenure, and Number Recycling. Based on that experience, the Marketing Working Group is exploring whether similar whitepapers should be created for other mature areas of the CAMARA API portfolio.

  • Note: APIs are recommended to target the Sync26 Meta-release, but some exceptions can be discussed.

  • For these exception, the concerned APIs should be aware that the Spring26 schedule is very tight.

  • Recommended to skip Spring26, but exception may exist e.g. for APIs that dropped from the Fall25 meta-release.

Agenda 2: It is proposed that August 19 session be canceled due to the summer break
