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
