We have added two new columns, "Latest event (β)" and "Actions," to the Soracom Cloud Camera Services device list screen.
The [Latest event (β)] column displays a thumbnail image of the most recent detected event within the last 7 days. When an event of interest is displayed, you can click the thumbnail to open the Play Event Video screen and review the event. By combining this feature with the Tag-based Filtering (Japanese) option, you can display a list of the latest event images for specific SoraCam compatible cameras.
Additionally, the [Latest event (β)] column is useful for quickly identifying specific SoraCam compatible cameras.
The [Actions] column displays the following buttons, allowing you to perform actions directly from the Device list screen without navigating to the device detail screen:
If the increased number of columns makes the device list screen less user-friendly, you can hide less important columns or move them to the right for better visibility.
Specifically, by clicking the Table Settings button in the device list screen, you can open the Table Settings screen and adjust the display order or visibility of the columns.
Please take advantage of this update to enhance your experience. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Soracom Support.

When using Soracom Flux AI Actions to send instructions or questions to an AI model, requests are managed using Flux credits. For example, using the Amazon Bedrock Anthropic Claude 3 Haiku AI model consumes 10 Flux credit per request.
We have revised the number of credits consumed for the Azure OpenAI (GPT-4o) Flux AI action as follows:
| AI Action Model | Before | -> | After |
|---|---|---|---|
| Azure OpenAI (GPT-4o) | 150 Credits | -> | 86 Credits |
For more information, please refer to the following documentation:
We are pleased to announce that Soracom Flux is now compatible with Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova.
When building a Flux application, you can specify an AI Action in order to send a request to an AI model for processing. With this update, you can now send requests to the Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova model.
Each Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova request will consume Flux credits according to the following types of request:
| Model | Consumed credits |
|---|---|
| Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Micro | 2 Credits |
| Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Lite | 3 Credits |
| Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Pro | 30 Credits |
Note that at this time, the Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Lite and Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Pro support text and image input; the Amazon Bedrock - Amazon Nova Micro only supports text input. Neither model supports video.
For more information, see the Soracom Flux documentation.
When using Soracom Flux AI Actions to send instructions or questions to an AI model, requests are managed using Flux credits. For example, using the Amazon Bedrock Anthropic Claude 3 Haiku AI model consumes 10 Flux credit per request.

We have released two new Soracom Cloud Camera Services (SoraCam) APIs for saving data to Soracom Harvest Data. When using these APIs, the data saved to Harvest Data will be associated with a compatible camera device.
For example, you can send an image captured by a SoraCam device to an AI service for image analysis and then save the results of the analysis, such as the number of people in the image or whether or not specific objects were detected, to Harvest Data.
This data will be associated with the SoraCam device, and can then be viewed through the Soracom User Console, as well as using the Harvest Data APIs below:
When using these new APIs to save data to Harvest Data, the following Soracom Harvest Data Service, Data Submit and Data Export fees will apply (prices below include consumption tax):
Please note that if these APIs are used to associated data with a device other than a SoraCam compatible camera devices, Harvest Data fees will still apply according to the group of the corresponding device (such as an IoT SIM or other device) where the Soracom Harvest Data service is enabled.
A free tier for Harvest Data Service fees is also included with every Soracom account:
For example, if data from 4 SoraCam compatible camera devices is saved to Soracom Harvest Data for 10 days, the Service fee will be calculated as 4 camera devices × 10 days = 40 device-days. After subtracting the 31 device-day free tier, the remaining 9 device-days will be billed.
For additional Harvest Data pricing and free tier details, please refer to the Pricing & Fee Schedule.
We have made several improvements to the SIM Actions menu interface in order to make it easier to use:
We are excited to continue bringing additional interface improvements in the coming months.
