AT&T API Platform


AT&T API Platform What it is

Leveraging technology from Apigee, the API Platform exposes core capabilities through RESTful public APIs

Reduces friction for a thriving ecosystem of developers and innovators:• Easy, self-service access to RESTful

APIs• Extensive documentation• SDKs to ease development for HTML5

and native apps• Sample apps and code• Console & Sandbox for testing

Speech

SMS & MMS Messaging

Payment

In App Messaging from Mobile Number (Beta)

AT&T API PlatformHow it works – Transaction Workflow

Developer uses API Platformto add RESTful AT&T APIs

to his appsApp is provisioned with API Key & connects to

Apigee Gateway

Apigee Gateway connects to southbound enabler,

like Speech on our Cloud

Transaction request goes from Gateway back to API Platform

Transaction goes from API Platform to

Cloud (HTML5) or Device (Native)


AT&T API Platform Catalog


Speech APIVoice-enable your apps

The Speech API can be used to create apps with speech recognition that run on virtually any device and cellular network in the United States — just send us audio, and we’ll send you the transcribed text of what your customers say.

Powered by the AT&T WATSON℠ speech transcription engine, the Speech API is optimized for seven speech contexts that we build, maintain, and tune for you. The intent is that these contexts return more accurate results when used with the app types after which they are named. Choose the one that best fits your app: • Web Search • Business Search • Voicemail To Text • SMS Speech • Question and Answer • TV • Generic – a general-purpose context that can automatically

detect and transcribe English and Spanish languages


Speech APIHow it works

1. Either use our SDKs for HTML5 or native apps to create a UI that captures speech, or create your own.

2. Send the audio to the API via a data connection.

3. App request is authenticated / approved.

4. Our AT&T WATSONSM

speech engine transcribes the text, and returns it to the app.

5. The app can perform additional actions on the text, or present it back to the user.


Payment API

Supports one-time and subscription purchases with a purchase process designed to support all connected device transactions, regardless of how the customer connects to the network

Handles authentication, communication with the billing system(s), and confirmation/ notification steps for an in-app purchase with billing to the AT&T Wireless account

Lets you be in charge, giving you the flexibility to control the look and feel of how you present purchase options to your customers, as well as how you deliver digital goods to the customer


SMS & MMS APIsReach customers with targeted alerts & information, and enable them to connect back to you

Users can send messages from their mobile device to your app ("mobile originate") or your app can send messages to one or more mobile users ("mobile terminate")

As part of our SMS service, we lease a short code to you at no extra charge – SMS uses short codes that make two-way interactions more convenient for both you and your user

With MMS, you can move beyond the text-only capabilities of SMS to include video, images, audio, synchronized multimedia integration language (SMIL) formatting, and plain text

Unlike other native messaging solutions, our solution works across platforms, delivering content to the user's existing text message inbox


In App Messaging from Mobile Number API (Beta)

This API enables your app to send text and picture messages to any U.S. mobile phone using the user’s own AT&T phone number – from within your application.

Message recipients will immediately recognize who sent the message.

Replies to messages sent can be received by the user’s mobile phone and by your application, so that the conversation can continue within your application.


Device Capabilities API

This API provides an effective way to identify the user's device and its capabilities, so you can develop apps that give the best user experience and support.

This beta version of the API provides a look at the AT&T method for responding to device capabilities requests with information that is specific to the AT&T network and AT&T device-naming conventions.

The API retrieves the make, model, and firmware release of the device.
