Can Pega Mobile access phone number as per SIM card(s)?
Can Pega Mobile App access the phone number associated with the SIM card (or cards in case of a dual SIM) in the device and use that in application (e.g. for validation)?

Hi,
you can create a native extension or plugin for ios and android platform:
https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/custom-pega-mobile-client-modules-android-platform
https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/custom-pega-mobile-client-modules-ios-platform
In such custom module for example on android you can use TelephonyManager API to get for example Sim Card Serial number or other data.
Plase also be informed that Pega Mobile clinet has a Container API accessed via javascript launchbox.Container object
https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/mobileclient/7410/api/client_api/container_object_container.html
There you can for example use getPlatformSpecificDeviceId
https://community.pega.com/sites/default/files/mobileclient/7410/api/client_api/container_container_get_platform_specific_device_id.html
and get device androidID.
Keep in mind that HC api implementation might change with time and you will have full control on your extension.
Regards,
Aleksander
