# Check port-in eligibility

> Check whether a number is eligible for port-in without submitting one —
read-only, no order created. An ineligible number is a `200` with
`eligible: false`, not an HTTP error. Only the **SpenzaJ** carrier
actually implements this check today; every other carrier (Simetry,
Soracom, EsimGo, CiscoJasper, Granite, Webbing, Boom) returns `501`.

  title: Spenza Partner API
  version: 3.0.0
  summary: >-
    Partner API for SIMs, eSIMs, plans, billing, users, groups and numbers —
    v1.1 surface.
  description: >
    The **Spenza Partner API** lets you manage SIMs, eSIMs, plans,
    subscriptions,

    billing, users, phone numbers, teams and device/SIM/user groups
    programmatically.


    All endpoints follow one consistent standard:


    - **Auth** — exchange your API `key` + `secret` for a bearer token, then
    send
      `Authorization: Bearer <token>` on every request.
    - **Envelopes** — success responses are `{ success, data, meta? }`; errors
    are
      `{ success: false, error: { code, message, details? } }`.
    - **Pagination** — list endpoints accept `page` (1-indexed) and `pageSize`
      (max 100); totals are returned in `meta`.
    - **Idempotency** — many write endpoints honor an optional `Idempotency-Key`
      request header so a retried call replays the original result instead of
      repeating the side effect.
    - **Async operations** — a handful of endpoints (eSIM provisioning, port-in,
      the `/api/v3/...` purchase variants, top-up) return `202` (`201` for
      top-up) with a `transactionId` + `statusEndpoint` instead of the finished
      resource. Poll
      `GET /api/v3/transactions/{transactionId}` (no auth required) until the
      transaction reaches a terminal status.

    One resource — **port-in submission** — is a documented exception: it lives
    at

    `POST /api/v3/port-in`, requires an Admin-tier account role rather than just
    a

    valid bearer token, and is **not** on the standard envelope (see that
    operation's

    description for its exact response shape).
