The Sentinel REM extension provides a RESTful HTTP provisioning API. It also provides many Configuration APIs for various Sentinel VoLTE application components.

Tip To use the Sentinel VoLTE Provisioning REST Web Interface and Machine API, you will need to configure a Rhino instance using the Rhino Element Manager (REM).
Tip The Sentinel SDK contains a Python script called sentinel-rest-example in the build/bin directory. It implements the examples discussed here and a few more.

This page covers

The API also includes the ability to invalidate cache entries in the Sh Cache Microservice, as detailed in the Sh Cache Microservice REST API.

Primer on RESTful HTTP

RESTful HTTP is a pattern for use of the HTTP protocol.

RESTful APIs typically provide the following operations:

  • Create

  • Read

  • Update, and

  • Delete operations

These are referred to as "CRUD".

The CRUD operations are mapped to HTTP Methods, or "HTTP verbs".

CRUD HTTP Method/Verb URI Return code

Create

POST

/subscriberdata

201 (Created) containing a Location header with a link to /susbcriberdata/{impu}. 409 (Conflict) if the IMPU already exists.

Read

GET

/subscriberdata/{impu}

200 (OK) with the body containing the content. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

Update

PUT

/subscriberdata/{impu}

204 (OK) indicating that the document has been replaced. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

Delete

DELETE

/susbcriberdata/{impu}

204 (OK) indicating that the document has been removed. 404 (Not Found) if the IMPU is not found or invalid.

The Create (POST) operation URI differs from the other operations. This is because Create (POST) is creating a resource with the identity of the resource contained in the body of the POST. A success response to create contains a Location header providing the URI of the resource. Other operations specify the identity as part of the Request URI.

In other words, you can consider create to be saying to the manager of the filer "please create me a box, write the number 10 on the outside of the box, put these books in the box, and tell me where box 10 is filed". The success response says "a box with number 10 was created, it is filed at this location (10), and it contains your books".

Whereas the other operations are not addressing the filer, they are addressing the box itself. This means that the Request URI contains "10" in our example. So Update (PUT) replaces the "books in box number 10" identified by the URI.

Read (GET) returns the "books from box number 10", and Delete (DELETE) deletes box number 10 and it’s contained books.

Another subtly is that both Create (POST) and Update (PUT) contain the identifier in the body, you cannot update "box number 10" with a body that identifies "box number 11".

Accessing the Provisioning REST API

To access the Provisioning REST API:

1

Ensure the Sentinel REM extension is installed in REM.

2

Start REM.

3

Access the Sentinel Provisioning API at [http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api] (replace localhost with some other hostname if REM is not being run locally).

Tip Access is restricted to users configured through REM using HTTP BASIC authorization. If you’re using a web browser, it will prompt you to enter a username and password the first time you access any part of the API.

Listing and browsing resources

You can list and browse resources through the Sentinel Provisioning API.

Listing resources

You can find a listing of all available resources at the top-level URL for the API (for example, [http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api]).

The list can be in either:

  • HTML format (for viewing in a browser)

  • an APP Service Document (application/atomsvc+xml), that can be parsed by a scripted client.

Browsing resources

From the top-level API URL, you can browse into the available resources. Each resource in turn lists its own sub-resources. All of the sub-resources require a rhinoInstanceId query parameter. This should exactly match the name of a Rhino instance configured in REM (such as rhinoInstanceId=Local). Most of the sub-resources also require a selectionKey query parameter in the form of platformOperator:networkOperator:sessionType:planId:subscriptionId - such as selectionKey=OpenCloud::::

Example 1:

http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts returns a sub-resource listing for feature execution scripts:

<feature>
  <name>FeatureExecutionScripts</name>
  <resources>
    <link title="Feature Execution Scripts" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts" rel="entries"/>
    <link title="Feature Execution Script Execution Point Associations" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/executionpoints" rel="associations"/>
  </resources>
</feature>

Example 2:

Following the entries relation to the scripts resource, by adding the rhinoInstanceId and selectionKey parameters, http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud

returns a paged listing of feature execution scripts configured in your local Rhino instance for platform operator OpenCloud:

<featureExecutionScripts next="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::&page=2">
  <featureExecutionScript>
    <name>default_DiameterAccess_NetworkPreCreditCheck</name>
    <resources>
      <link title="default_DiameterAccess_NetworkPreCreditCheck" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts/default_DiameterAccess_NetworkPreCreditCheck?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::" rel="config"/>
    </resources>
  </featureExecutionScript>
  ...
  <featureExecutionScript>
    <name>default_Mediation_CreditAllocatedPostOcsCC</name>
    <resources>
      <link title="default_Mediation_CreditAllocatedPostOcsCC" href="http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts/default_Mediation_CreditAllocatedPostOcsCC?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::" rel="config"/>
    </resources>
  </featureExecutionScript>
</featureExecutionScripts>
  • The next and prev attributes contain the URLs for the next and previous pages of results.

  • The link entries contain the URLs for accessing the individual feature execution script resource entities.

Specifying content type

By default, the API accepts and returns application/xml, but also supports application/json. To request content in JSON format, simple set the http Accept request header to application/json.

For example:

{{wget --header='Accept: application/json' ...}}
for {{.../featureexecutionscripts/scripts/default_DirectAccess_SessionStart?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::}}

returns a JSON object representing the requested feature execution script.

{"featureExecutionScript": {
  "name": "default_DirectAccess_SessionStart",
  "src": "featurescript OnSessionStart { if not currentNextStep.refuseDialog and not currentNextStep.relayDialog { run AcceptCamelVoiceV1V2V3 } }"
}}

Provisioning MMTel subscriber data using the provisioning API

The HSS Data and Data Configuration REST API provides a RESTFul API allowing a users Supplementary Service data and IMS Operator Determined Barring data to be provisioned. The provisioned data is stored in two documents in the HSS, using Sh Transparent data.

The API defines Create, Read, Update and Delete (C,R,U,D) operations. It maps REST C,R,U,D operations into Sh Cache Microservice operations, which in turn turns them into Diameter Sh operations that manipulate XML documents stored in the HSS. These documents are the:

  • MMTel-Services document, according to section 7 of 3GPP TS 29.364 Rel 12,

  • IMS-ODB-Information document, according to section 10 of 3GPP TS 29.364 Rel 12

  • Metaswitch-TAS-Services document, custom

The XML schema for these documents is available, see MMTel standard schema.

Overview of the API

The API uses common RESTful HTTP practices. It is recommended to refer to the Primer on RESTful HTTP whilst reading this API.

Specific elements in the MMTel-Services document and IMS-ODB-Information documents (stored in the HSS, accessed via the Sh Cache Microservice) are mapped to "fields" in the returned document via this API. There is a default mapping, configured through the use of the sentinel-volte-mappings-config tool described in Populate XCAP server settings and MMTel service data.

The mappings added by this tool are documented:

A visual way to view the result of the mappings is to Load or view transparent data for an IMS public identity.

Users can modify the API server configuration in order to introduce additional XML schemas with their own Service Indication. The sentinel-volte-mappings-config tool uses a REST API to provide the default mappings/configuration. Note: in versions of Sentinel VoLTE prior to the 2.7.0.x series, only the MMTel-Services document was configured by default in the previously named volte-sentinel-mappings-config tool.

The subscriber’s own Data when passed to and from the API is framed according to the form described in HssSubscriberData.

The framing is either JSON or XML. When reading from the API (e.g a Read operation), the framing is selected by use of the Accept header. It is either:

  • Accept: application/json - for JSON framed data, or

  • Accept: application/xml - for XML framed data

When writing to the API (e.g. a Create or Update operation) the framing is indicated to the API by use of the Content-Type header. It is either:

  • Content-Type: application/json - for JSON framed data, or

  • Content-Type: application/xml - for XML framed data

The details of the Create, Read, Update and Delete operations are described in the /hssdata/subscriberdata section.

The operations take several parameters:

  • The imsUserIdentity parameter is the IMS public identity that will be read during SIP Session processing, or accessed via the Ut interface.

  • The rhinoInstanceId parameter is the name/instance of the Rhino cluster that is being connected to (as defined in REM). This cluster stores settings that are used by the Provisioning API.

  • The selectionKey parameter - typically defines the Platform Operator Name used for the install of the form $PLATFORM_OPERATOR_NAME$::::

About Update

The Update operation requires that a whole document is provided by the API client. It is not a "delta" operation, whereby only certain attributes or elements are identified for update - the entire document needs to be included. If a partial document is provided to the Update operation, it is treated by the Server as though any elements not provided to the Update operation are set to:

  • xsi:nil="true" (for XML), or

  • null (for JSON)

A single API Update operation can modify one or more documents in the HSS via the Sh Cache Microservice. The HSS document to update is controlled by the serviceIndication in the client provided document.

The following two tables list all of the field attributes valid for their respective service indications.

Create Examples

The Create API takes the user’s IMPU from the provided document. It is the only API call that does not include the user’s IMPU in the query URI. It returns a Location header containing the URI for further accessing the user’s data. This location is the URI for the other operations, such as Read, Update and Delete.

The create operation operates on one IMPU at a time.

Data in a file instead of inline

In the create examples, the curl utility is used. Data is provided inline in these examples, such that they can be copy/pasted to a command-line.

This has the side effect of making the command look more complex, as it is now a "long string" entered as a single command.

The curl utility allows the data to be used for an HTTP operation to be specified in a file, rather than provided inline. So rather than using --data 'data-goes-here' portion of the commands, it’s recommended to use --data-binary "@/path/to/filename". The reason to use --data-binary is because when curl handles data using --data it will strip newlines …​ yet newlines can make documents (more) humanly readable!

Creating a users Transparent Data

In this example:

  • the imsUserIdentity is sip:+6505550201@example.com - it is specified in the request body

  • the HTTP Request Method is POST

  • the user does not have Sh Transparent data

  • the rhinoInstanceId is Local

  • the selectionKey is Metaswitch::::

  • the requested framing format is JSON

  • the username is username

  • the password is password

  • the server is located on localhost running on port 8080

This example creates two documents in the HSS from a single HTTP request. These are MMTel-Services, and IMS-ODB-Information documents.

Note: When an XML element from the HSS is returned inside a "value" XML element, the API has to encode the HSS’s XML element as type xs:string. This means that elements such as the following occur.

Update Examples

Note: the examples here provide data in-line. It may be preferable to have data provided via a file. See Data in a file instead of inline.

Update of IMS ODB Information using JSON

In this example, a users IMS ODB Information is set to bar outgoing calls to international destinations, excluding the home country.

This example sets:

  • the Service Indication to "IMS-ODB-Information" - (serviceIndication in the document)

  • a value of "2" in the OutgoingBarring element in the OdbForImsOrientedServices document - an example of an XML document over the Sh interface is provided Bar all outgoing communications when international ex-hplmnc

  • all other portions of the document are also provided - in this case they are explicitly set to null.

  • the imsUserIdentity is sip:+6505550201@example.com - it is specified in the URI

  • the HTTP Request Method is PUT

  • the rhinoInstanceId is Local

  • the selectionKey is Metaswitch::::

  • the requested framing format is JSON

  • the username is username

  • the password is password

  • the server is located on localhost running on port 8080

Update of CDIV rules using JSON

In this example, a users CDIV rules are set to the Unconditional rule, to always retarget to a specific number. The users CDIV Active flag is set to true so that diversion can occur.

Note that CDIV Rules are able to be modified by an end user. Therefore a workflow implemented in a provisioning system is expected to:

  • Read the existing document using the Read operation, and parse into an in-memory form

  • modify this in-memory document add the specific rule (into the existing set of rules),

  • Update the document using the Update operation

A read for a user with no CDIV rules set will return a document. A trimmed version of that document is show below, including the two relevant fields:

  1. CDIV Active

  2. CDIV Rules

{"identity":"sip:+6505550201@example.com",
 "fieldGroups":[
     {"serviceIndication":"MMTEL-Services",
         "fields":[

 .. trimmed some output of Read  ..

             {"name":"CDIV Active:","value":"false"},

             {"name":"CDIV Rules:","value":"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n<cp:ruleset xmlns=\"http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap\" xmlns:ocp=\"urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy\" xmlns:cp=\"urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy\"/>\n"},

.. trimmed some output of Read  ..
         ]
     },
 .. trimmed some output of Read ..
 ]
}

The existing value of CDIV Active is "false". In order for CDIV to divert the call, the new value shall be "true".

The existing value of CDIV Rules - after removal of JSON escaping is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cp:ruleset xmlns="http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap" xmlns:ocp="urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy" xmlns:cp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy"/>

The desired value for this element according to the MMTel Services document schema is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<cp:ruleset xmlns="http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap" xmlns:ocp="urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy" xmlns:cp="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy">
    <cp:rule id="unconditional">
        <cp:conditions>
        </cp:conditions>
        <cp:actions>
            <forward-to>
                <target>sip:+6505550202@example.com</target>

            </forward-to>
        </cp:actions>
    </cp:rule>
</cp:ruleset>

The JSON string form of the XML document above (preserving whitespace) is:

"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" standalone=\"yes\"?>\n<cp:ruleset xmlns=\"http://uri.etsi.org/ngn/params/xml/simservs/xcap\" xmlns:ocp=\"urn:oma:xml:xdm:common-policy\" xmlns:cp=\"urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:common-policy\">\n    <cp:rule id=\"unconditional\">\n        <cp:conditions>\n        </cp:conditions>\n        <cp:actions>\n            <forward-to>\n                <target>sip:6505550202@example.com</target>\n                <notify-caller>true</notify-caller>\n            </forward-to>\n        </cp:actions>\n    </cp:rule>\n</cp:ruleset>\n"

Configuring using simple tools and scripts

Many of the APIs available as part of this document allow configuration of the Sentinel VoLTE application and its internal components. Higher-level clients can be used to configure the application using the REST API from Java or other application code, but you really just need to be able to make HTTP requests. See these examples:

Adding a feature execution script with curl (XML)

Request

curl -H 'Accept: application/xml' \
     -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' \
     -i -w '\nHTTP STATUS: %{http_code}\nTIME: %{time_total}\n' \
     -X POST \
     -u "username:password" \
     -d "<featureExecutionScript><name>my_new_feature_script</name><src>featurescript newScript { }</src></featureExecutionScript>" \
     "http://localhost:8080/rem/sentinel/api/featureexecutionscripts/scripts?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::"

Response

HTTP/1.1 201 Created

Turning on HomeZone for a subscriber using Ruby (JSON)

Note: this specific example is not relevant to the Sentinel VoLTE application as the Home Zone feature is not part of Sentinel VoLTE. This example is intended to show how Ruby can be used with the configuration API.

require 'rubygems'
require 'json'
require 'net/http'

Net::HTTP.start('localhost', '8080') {|http|
  req = Net::HTTP::Get.new('/rem/sentinel/api/subscriberdata/records/34600000003?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::', {'Accept' => 'application/json'})
  req.basic_auth 'username', 'password'
  response = http.request(req)
  subscriber = JSON.parse(response.body)
  subscriber['subscriberData'].each {|item|
    if item['name'] == 'HomeZoneEnabled'
      item['valueBoolean'] = true;
    end
  }

  req = Net::HTTP::Put.new('/rem/sentinel/api/subscriberdata/records/34600000003?rhinoInstanceId=Local&selectionKey=OpenCloud::::', {'Content-Type' => 'application/json'})
  req.basic_auth 'username', 'password'
  response = http.request(req, JSON.generate(subscriber))
}
