Airtel Locate API is one of 5 APIs that [Bharti Airtel](https://apis.io/providers/bharti-airtel/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Device Location, Consent Management, IoT, Location, and Address Validation. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an API reference, and an OpenAPI specification.

Airtel Locate is the operator's network-based device-location platform, letting enterprises track a device by MSISDN without relying on the device's GPS. Published as an OpenAPI 3.0.0 catalogue (version 1.4.8) of 19 operations across five areas — Authorization, Resource Consent, Location, Address Validation and Tenant management — with explicit subscriber consent capture and an asynchronous mode that posts location to a customer-registered callback listener. This is Airtel's proprietary location API, not the CAMARA Device Location or Location Verification API. Documented publicly with Redoc, no login required.
