eSIM management
This API lets you retrieve eSIM activation codes or matching IDs, as well as notification history about eSIM status changes.
Retrieve an eSIM profile details
This operation allows you to retrieve profile information from the Subscription Manager Data Preparation+ (SM-DP+) relative to a given eSIM identified by its SIM card serial number.
As response, you will receive information such as:
- the eSIM profile status
- the activation code, the matching ID or even a ready-to-use QR code to download the profile on a device
- the identifier of the eUICC on which the profile was downloaded
- and optionally a history of all notifications and status changes
The activation code, matching ID and QR code are only available once an eSIM has been released.
