Important: New subscription type when transfer to private subscription in Mobile Order API April 2023

Telenor has launched new mobile subscriptions for the private market. This involves some changes for API customers using the Private Owner Subscription Transfer feature, and the changes are effective immediately.

The new private subscription is already available in the Mobile Order API, all clients must use the new subscription ID when initiating a transfer to a private owned subscription.

In order to avoid having to adapt to changing IDs for private subscriptions in the future, we have chosen to make a small change in the Mobile Order API: When transferring from a business to a private subscription, we have chosen to make the parameter that specifies the ID for the private subscription optional. This applies to order type "TRANSFERNUMBERPERSONAL_OWNER", parameter "subscriptionTypeId". If not provided, the default private subscription ID is used in the transfer order. It will still be possible to use the API as it is today, i.e. look up the correct ID and send it with the transfer order.

Contact API Expert team if you have questions about this change.

Service Ticket API new event type February 2022

We have updated our Service Ticket API event engine with a new event action type named SHARED. It is already available and ready for subscription. As opposed to the event action type CREATED, SHARED will be used where Telenor raises a case ticket and makes it visible to clients during the process of error correction. SHARED is used to notify clients about a ticket that is made visible for the client.
