aid: bics-network
name: BICS
authentication:
  type: OAuth2
  scheme: Bearer
  summary: >-
    BICS developer-portal APIs are protected with OAuth2. Access is not fully
    self-serve - a developer registers to consume an API on the portal, the
    consumption request is approved by BICS (confirmed by email), and the email
    contains instructions for creating an OAuth2 token. Each request then carries
    the access token in an Authorization header.
  tokenModel: OAuth2 access token presented as a Bearer credential in the Authorization request header
  onboarding: >-
    Register on developer.bics.com to consume an API, wait for approval, then
    follow the emailed instructions to generate an OAuth2 token. Sandbox base
    URLs (sandbox.api.bics.com) are available for the MyNumbers family for
    testing before production.
  gatedProducts: >-
    Mobile identity, number verification, HLR/reachability lookup, SIM-swap and
    device-location products are not exposed on the self-serve portal; they are
    provisioned through a BICS / Proximus Global commercial agreement with
    credentials issued per contract.
