Overview

This node interacts with the Ribbon API to unblock fraud groups in the provisioning service. It is useful for telecom operators or service providers who need to manage call blocking rules dynamically to prevent fraud. For example, it can unblock specific fraud groups such as all outgoing calls or premium and international calls, allowing legitimate traffic to resume.

Use Case Examples

  1. Unblock all outgoing calls fraud group (Group 1) by specifying the domain name and rule name.
  2. Unblock premium and international calls (Groups 2-9) by setting call type flags like international, local, long distance, and premium to true or false.
