Sample code for Device Location Verification

The following samples show how to use the Open Gateway Device Location Verifiaction API,

Suggest Edits

The following code shows, for didactic purposes, a hypothetical or sample SDK, in several programming languages, from a generic Open Gateway's channel partner, also known as aggregator. The final implementation will depend on the channel partner's development tools offering. Note that channel partners' Open Gateway SDKs are just code modules wrapping authorization and API calls providing an interface in your app's programming for convenience.

It is recommended to use the API Reference tool for faster calls of our APIs

These are code examples

  • Remember to replace 'my-app-id' and 'my-app-secret' with the credentials of your app. (If you are using our Sandbox, you can get them here).
  • Remember also to change the urls with your aggregator urls. If you are using the Sandbox, the url is https://sandbox.opengateway.telefonica.com/apigateway/

Backend flow

Most likely, this API will be consumed in a backend flow, since it is the application owner not the end-user who wants to take advantage of its functionality. The authorization protocol used in Open Gateway for backend flows is the OIDC standard CIBA (Client-Initiated Backchannel Authentication). You can check the CAMARA documentation on this flow here.

Authorization

import requests
import base64
import sys

ciba_url = "https://sandbox.opengateway.telefonica.com/apigateway/bc-authorize"
token_url = "https://sandbox.opengateway.telefonica.com/apigateway/token"
verify_url = "https://sandbox.opengateway.telefonica.com/apigateway/location/v0/verify"

# AUTHENTICATION
## Basic Auth
def basic_auth():
    client_id='my-app-id',
    client_secret='my-app-secret'
    credentials = f"{client_id}:{client_secret}"
    return base64.b64encode(credentials.encode()).decode()

## CIBA
def cibauth(headers, number):
    payload = {
            "login_hint": number,
            "scope": "dpv:FraudPreventionAndDetection#device-location-read"
    }
    try:
        response = requests.post(ciba_url, data=payload, headers=headers)
        response.raise_for_status()
        return response.json().get("auth_req_id")
    except:
        status_code = response.status_code
        error_msg = response.json().get("error_description")
        print(f"Error {status_code}: {error_msg}")
        sys.exit(1)

## Token
def get_token(headers, ciba):
    payload = {
            "auth_req_id": ciba,
            "grant_type": "urn:openid:params:grant-type:ciba"
    }
    try:
        response = requests.post(token_url, data=payload, headers=headers)
        response.raise_for_status()
        return response.json().get("access_token")
    except:
        status_code = response.status_code
        error_msg = response.json().get("message")
        print(f"Error {status_code}: {error_msg}")
        sys.exit(1)

# Check if the number is in Distrito Telefónica
def verify_number(token, number):
    url = "https://sandbox.opengateway.telefonica.com/apigateway/location/v0/verify"
    payload = {
            "ueId": { "msisdn": "+34666666666" },
            "latitude": 40.5150,
            "longitude": -3.6640,
            "accuracy": 50
    }
    headers = {
            "accept": "application/json",
            "content-type": "application/json",
            "authorization": f"Bearer {token}"
    }
    try:
        response = requests.post(url, json=payload, headers=headers)
        response.raise_for_status()
        return response.json()
    except:
        status_code = response.status_code
        error_msg = response.json().get("message")
        print(f"Error 3 {status_code}: {error_msg}")
        sys.exit(1)

import sys
from opengateway_sandbox_sdk import ClientCredentials, DeviceLocation

credentials = ClientCredentials(
    client_id='yout_client_id',
    client_secret='your_client_secret'
    )
phone_number = "+34666666666"
try:
    device_client = DeviceLocation(credentials, phone_number)

    sys.exit(1)

API usage

if __name__ == "__main__":
    number = "+34666666666"
    credentials = basic_auth()
    headers = {
            "accept": "application/json",
            "content-type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded",
            "authorization": f"Basic {credentials}"
    }
    ciba_response = cibauth(headers, number)
    token = get_token(headers, ciba_response)
    verify = verify_number(token, number)

    print(f"Is device {number} in Distrito Telefónica?: {verify.get("verificationResult")}")

    res = device_client.verify(phone_number, 40.5150, -3.6640, 50)

    print(res)
