    Hello

    Are Open APIs been built on top of any existing data model (eg SID)?
    Is there any specific data model defined for those APIs?

    Thanks

    Hi Rurik, 
    Each TM Forum Open API specification includes details of the Data model used for the API.  We are also building out a new task force focused on building up the full Data Model to help us publish this in model format.  email me if interested.  key skills required, SID / Data Model experts. 

    many thanks
    Joann

    Hey Rurik,
    There is a document for the API Data Model (TMF625_API_Data_Model), but I'm not certain that it fully supports / matches the APIs. Each API spec has some details as to the data model that it assumes, but these are not gathered together (other than TMF625_API_Data_Model).

    All of it is "based upon SID", but transformed to support the RESTful API (e.g. adding Reference objects, etc), as the API requires contextualization and pruning of the SID IM.

    Hi Joann

    Thanks for the invite, I will think about it and send you an email soon.

    Hi Rob

    What a coincidence seeing a reply from you in this forum. I will take a look on that document. I was expecting these API should be based on an existing data model instead of building from scratch. Thank you!
