API summaryThis API allows users to obtain the current subscription status of a certain phone number, including the subscription of Voice/SMS in, Voice/SMS out, and data service.
Payment System and Risk Management: In scenarios where payment or identity verification relies on phone numbers, such as e-commerce platforms or financial service providers, this API can be used to verify whether user accounts are functioning properly. This helps to reduce fraud and payment risks, ensuring that only normal accounts can conduct transactions.
Customer Service Support: If a user reports that they are unable to receive calls or text messages, customer service personnel can determine whether the problem is caused by the phone voice function being shut down by checking the phone's status.
Technical viabilityOperators can obtain the shutdown and resumption status of mobile network users by querying the information in the UDM/HSS contracted network element devices of the mobile network.
