What are Open Gateway / CAMARA APIs and why do they matter?

Open Gateway is a global initiative by GSMA and the Linux Foundation that standardizes telecom network APIs across carriers. CAMARA is the open-source project defining these API specifications. Instead of carrier-specific integrations, developers get universal, consistent endpoints for Number Verify, Device Location, SIM Swap, Quality on Demand, and more. AT&T is a founding participant, meaning these APIs work the same way across compatible networks worldwide.

Does Device Location require user consent?

Yes. Per CAMARA standards, the Device Location API requires explicit user consent before returning any positioning data. The API will fail with an authentication error if consent has not been granted. This is a security and privacy safeguard -- network-level location cannot be retrieved silently without the user's knowledge.

What is Network Slicing and when should I use it?

Network Slicing creates logically isolated 5G network segments with guaranteed SLA parameters (latency, bandwidth, reliability). Use it for IoT deployments requiring guaranteed connectivity, private enterprise networks, mission-critical applications like remote surgery or autonomous vehicles, and any scenario where best-effort public network performance is insufficient. You can create, monitor, and delete slices directly through your AI agent.

About AT&T 5G MCP Server

Connect your AT&T 5G account to any AI agent and unlock the full power of Open Gateway / CAMARA-compliant network APIs through natural conversation.

The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 9 tools from AT&T 5G through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries AT&T 5G, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

What you can do

Number Verify -- Silently confirm a user's phone number matches their current device without SMS OTP friction
Device Location -- Get approximate geographic positioning via network-based cell tower triangulation (with user consent)
SIM Swap Detection -- Detect recent SIM card changes to prevent account takeovers and fraud before they happen
Quality on Demand -- Request guaranteed network profiles (low latency, high throughput, reliable transmission) for critical sessions
Network Slicing -- Provision, monitor, and decommission dedicated 5G network slices with custom SLA parameters for enterprise use
Roaming Status -- Check if a device is roaming on a foreign network and apply correct billing or routing rules
Session Auditing -- List active and historical QoD sessions to audit premium service consumption

The AT&T 5G MCP Server exposes 9 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
