Checking Sim swap events

Log in to Network as Code Developer Portal and head over to your Dashboard. Then, click Create and manage organizations and a new window will open, from which you can select API Hub on the top-right menu. Click the top-left search box and just type in the API name SIM Swap.

NOTE: Remember to subscribe to the SIM Swap API first, after which you will be able to click Test Endpoint and use the API. Here's a step-by-step on how to subscribe to APIs.

The Network as Code SIM Swap API has two endpoints:

1. Retrieve the latest SIM swap date (timestamp) with POST retrieveSimSwapDate.

   NOTE: If the SIM was not swapped recently, it will then return its activation date.

2. Check if a SIM was swapped within a specific span of n seconds with POST checkSimSwap.

}
