🔧 API Endpoints
Backend (BFF) Endpoints
All endpoints are prefixed with /api/subscriptions/{id}/sim/
GET /- Get comprehensive SIM info (details + usage)GET /details- Get SIM details onlyGET /usage- Get data usage informationGET /top-up-history?fromDate=&toDate=- Get top-up historyPOST /top-up- Add data quotaPOST /change-plan- Change SIM planPOST /cancel- Cancel SIM servicePOST /reissue-esim- Reissue eSIM profile (eSIM only)
Freebit API Integration
Implemented Freebit APIs:
- PA01-01: OEM Authentication (
/authOem/) - PA03-02: Get Account Details (
/mvno/getDetail/) - PA04-04: Add Specs & Quota (
/master/addSpec/) - PA05-0: MVNO Communication Information Retrieval (
/mvno/getTrafficInfo/) - PA05-02: MVNO Quota Addition History (
/mvno/getQuotaHistory/) - PA05-04: MVNO Plan Cancellation (
/mvno/releasePlan/) - PA05-21: MVNO Plan Change (
/mvno/changePlan/) - PA05-22: MVNO Quota Settings (
/mvno/eachQuota/) - PA05-42: eSIM Profile Reissue (
/esim/reissueProfile/) - Enhanced: eSIM Add Account/Reissue (
/mvno/esim/addAcnt/) - Based on Salesforce implementation
Note: The implementation includes both the simple reissue endpoint and the enhanced addAcnt method for more complex eSIM reissue scenarios, matching your existing Salesforce integration patterns.

🚀 Deployment Configuration
Environment Variables (BFF)
Add these to your .env file:
# Freebit API Configuration
# Production URL
FREEBIT_BASE_URL=https://i1.mvno.net/emptool/api
# Test URL (for development/testing)
# FREEBIT_BASE_URL=https://i1-q.mvno.net/emptool/api
FREEBIT_OEM_ID=PASI
FREEBIT_OEM_KEY=your_32_char_oem_key_from_freebit
FREEBIT_TIMEOUT=30000
FREEBIT_RETRY_ATTEMPTS=3
Module Registration
Ensure the Freebit module is imported in your main app module:
// apps/bff/src/app.module.ts
import { FreebititModule } from './vendors/freebit/freebit.module';
@Module({
imports: [
// ... other modules
FreebititModule,
],
})
export class AppModule {}
🧪 Testing
Backend Testing
# Test Freebit API connectivity
curl -X POST http://localhost:3001/api/subscriptions/{id}/sim/details \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {token}"
# Test data top-up
curl -X POST http://localhost:3001/api/subscriptions/{id}/sim/top-up \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {token}" \
-d '{"quotaMb": 1024}'
Frontend Testing
- Navigate to a SIM subscription detail page
- Verify SIM management section appears
- Test top-up modal with different amounts
- Test eSIM reissue (if applicable)
- Verify error handling with invalid inputs
🔒 Security Considerations
- API Authentication: Freebit auth keys are securely cached and refreshed
- Input Validation: All user inputs are validated on both frontend and backend
- Rate Limiting: Implement rate limiting for SIM management operations
- Audit Logging: All SIM actions are logged with user context
- Error Handling: Sensitive error details are not exposed to users
📊 Monitoring & Analytics
Key Metrics to Track
- SIM management API response times
- Top-up success/failure rates
- Most popular data amounts
- Error rates by operation type
- Usage by SIM type (physical vs eSIM)
Recommended Dashboards
-
SIM Operations Dashboard
- Daily/weekly top-up volumes
- Plan change requests
- Cancellation rates
- Error tracking
-
User Engagement Dashboard
- SIM management feature usage
- Self-service vs support ticket ratio
- User satisfaction metrics
🆘 Troubleshooting
