Hi @DT-DawidWroblewski, Best wishes for 2023, As you use only one scope to call userinfo ... As a server developper, how can I determine the reply type to send back?

Hi @patrice-conil ! Wishing you all the best in 2023!

As a developer you receive a reply type according to your declaration that happens during onboarding process.

Due to legal concerns, it is required that developer/service provider delivers a statement regarding

what is the use case for API consumption
how consent acquisition process is designed, along with consent wording
what is preferred reply type (boolean or timestamp)

according to onboarding declaration API is being set up in a way that satisfies developer/SP.

Hi @DT-DawidWroblewski, So, as a server developer, I have to maintain a link between the subscription portal and the simswap service to check what was subscribed during the onboarding process (Because I need this information to forge the reply). Why not to use two different scopes to discriminate the returned info?
