The GSMA OneAPI is an initiative to define a commonly supported API to allow mobile (and other network) operators to expose useful network information and capabilities to a Web application developers. It aims to reduce the effort and time needed to create applications and content that is portable across mobile operators. The project aims to reuse existing standards (or proper subset thereof) as well as advise standards bodies as to what Web developers expect from network operator APIs, so that such standards can evolve accordingly.

The Locatrix/XLF hosted application framework provides seamless access to network enablers via a REST-based API, incorporating location, privacy, subscriber profile and messaging with business logic (billing, subscriptions, charging models) to provide an accelerated path for mobile network operators to launch new and engaging VAS applications.  The Locatrix OneAPI project provides a reference implementation of the evolving OneAPI standards for deployment by operators across the Asia-Pacific region, based on the industry-proven Locatrix/XLF framework.
