pysim-otaman-server — HTTP API reference
The server exposes a JSON HTTP API under /api/*. All responses carry
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * (plus Access-Control-Allow-Private-Network: true
on the preflight), so the API is reachable from a separately-hosted PWA.
Version compatibility
| Server | PWA (OTAMan) | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 1.x.x | 1.x.x | ✅ Compatible |
| 0.x.x | 1.x.x | ❌ Outdated — update server |
| 2.x.x+ | 1.x.x | ⚠️ Server newer — update PWA |
The server reports its version via GET /api/version. The PWA checks this on
connect and warns if versions are incompatible.

Request body:
{
"sp": "00201516011515b00000...",
"spi1": "16",
"spi2": "01",
"kic": "15",

"tar": "b00000",
"cntr": "0000000001",
"kicKey": "D6FCC023...",
"kidKey": "1B07E7E0..."
}
Response (delivery PoR):
{"success": true, "sw": "9000", "response_data": "027100000e0a...",

"decoded": {"number_of_commands": 1, "last_status_word": "6e00",
"last_response_data": ""}}}
Response (submit PoR): PoR is extracted from the SMS-SUBMIT TPDU
fetched via a proactive command (FETCH). The response contains the
same por structure if decoding succeeds.
The SPI2 por_in_submit bit (0x20) selects submit-mode PoR.
POST /api/ram-install

Each step is sent via ENVELOPE and its PoR is checked; the sequence aborts on the first PoR error. Requires pySim with pySim.javacard.CapFile and pySim.global_platform available on the server.

reference. Returns the JS-generated packet, pySim reference, a match flag,
and the decoded SPI fields.
