Open APIs

Hi all,

in https://www.tmforum.org/resources/standard/ig1318-tm-forum-and-camara-apis-for-telco-standardized-service-exposure-v1-0-0/ "Domain Context Specialization (DCS)" is recommended as a means to standardize product/service-order payloads for dedicated domains (e.g. to ensure a minimum set of domain-specific required characteristics). I was wondering if that approach might also be useful to standardize "5G Network slice (access) management" in a way that it can be used by developers over an international footprint.  

• Are there already domain context specialization examples (e.g. broadband etc.) besides the Camara catayst?
• Are there any activities ongoing regarding extension of Open APIs for 5G Network Slicing (e.g. Order Network Slice or access of SIM subscriber to a slice)?

Hi Georg,

There is a DCS for 5G slice management in V4 is in the Open API table and we are working on the V5 version this week at the API SpecJam. Look out for updates to the OpenAPI table or get early sight of the work on the project pages in Confluence.

Hi George,

thanks for the quick answer. That's good news!
Somehow I can see the 924 in the table but are not allowed to download the swagger file as I can for the production APIs. Will check with the support.

Best regards
