Need Guidance on TMF API for Bulk Telephone Number File Upload

  • 1.  Need Guidance on TMF API for Bulk Telephone Number File Upload

    Posted 10 days ago

    Hello Team,

    I currently have a custom API that allows users to upload an Excel/CSV file containing telephone numbers.

    In our current implementation, the file is uploaded and stored in our system immediately. Once the upload is successful, we return a success response to the user. The actual processing of the file (reading the numbers, validation, and importing them into the inventory) happens asynchronously in the backend after the upload is completed.

    As part of our TM Forum Open API alignment initiative, I would like to understand which TMF Open API is the most appropriate for this use case.

    The functionality includes:

    • Uploading an Excel/CSV file containing multiple telephone numbers.

    • Storing the uploaded file in the system.

    • Returning a successful upload response to the user.

    • Processing the file asynchronously in the backend.

    • Creating/importing telephone numbers into the inventory after processing.

    Could you please advise which TMF Open API should be used for this scenario? Is there a TMF standard approach for handling file uploads with asynchronous processing and bulk telephone number imports?

    Thank you for your guidance.
