We are excited to announce that Remote Command now supports RTSP-enabled devices, enabling seamless control of network cameras and other RTSP-compatible devices directly from the Soracom platform.

Key Features

• Snapshot Command: You can send a snapshot command to the Remote Command API to get the current snapshot from an RTSP video stream.

This new feature simplifies the integration of RTSP-enabled devices into your IoT workflows, providing greater flexibility and control.

For more details, please visit the Remote Command documentation.

We are pleased to release an new improved API for Soracom Napter which allows for On-Demand Remote Access permissions to be controlled on a per-SIM basis.

With the existing API, Napter On-Demand Remote Access sessions are created by specifying the SIM ID in the body of the API request. The new API places the SIM ID parameter in the URL path instead, making it possible to control remote access to specific SIMs for administrators or field personnel by using path variables when configuring SAM user permissions.

The following APIs can now be used to create On-Demand Remote Access sessions:

• PortMapping:createPortMapping API: SIM ID specified in the request body
• PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API: SIM ID specified in the request URL path

Since this update introduces a second API for creating remote access sessions, please review the following details to ensure your existing user permissions continue to work as expected.

Required Action: Update SAM User Permissions

1. Check if any of your SAM User, Role, or Default permissions currently specify the existing PortMapping:createPortMapping API (allow or deny).
2. Update each permission to add the new PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API, following the desired allow or deny behavior.
3. (Optional) If you wish to restrict a user's access to a specific SIM, add a condition to the new PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API to match the particular SIM, and ensure that the existing PortMapping:createPortMapping API is set to deny.

Please note that if you do not update your permissions, a SAM user whose PortMapping:createPortMapping API permission is currently denied may be able to access Napter using the new PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API instead.

We recommend updating SAM User, Role, or Default permissions as soon as possible to avoid unexpected behavior.

Additional User Console Updates

On October 9, 2025, the On-Demand Remote Access function in the User Console will be updated to use the new PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API.

If you do not update SAM user permissions as above, users may encounter the following issues:

• A user who previously could create On-Demand Remote Access sessions may no longer be able to do so until their permission is updated to allow the new API
• A user who previously was not able to create On-Demand Remote Access sessions may be able to do so because their permission has not been updated to deny the new API

We will provide a separate announcement once the User Console has been updated.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Soracom Support.

We are pleased to announce that the Soracom Flux SoraCam Image Action now supports the SoraCam Real-time Access (Japanese) feature.

Previously, the SoraCam Image Action was limited to accessing still images that have already been uploaded to the cloud using the SoraCam cloud recording function. With this update, you can now capture live images directly from SoraCam compatible cameras in real time.

For more details, please refer to the SoraCam Image Action (Japanese) and Soracom Flux (Japanese) documentation.

Note: To use this new feature, you must enable Real-time Access (Japanese) for your SoraCam compatible cameras, which will incur additional fees per camera. For additional pricing details, see SoraCam Pricing (Japanese).

If you have any questions, please contact Soracom Support.

Please note that this service is currently only available for customers located in Japan.

We are pleased to announce new 60-day and 90-day Cloud Always Recording Licenses for Soracom Cloud Camera Services (SoraCam).

With these new licenses, videos uploaded from a SoraCam compatible camera device will be stored for 60 and 90 days, respectively, allowing users to review footage from over a month ago, such as when managing construction sites, building projects, or other use cases that span several months.

These new license options are now available in addition to the existing 7-day, 14-day, and 30-day licenses. Note that 60-day and 90-day licenses are charged on a monthly basis per camera.

For more information, please refer to the pricing information (Japanese) or the SoraCam product page (Japanese).

If you have any questions, please contact Soracom Support.

Please note that this service is currently only available for customers located in Japan.

This announcement was corrected as follows:

Before correction:

Scheduled date: September 15, 2025

After correction:

Scheduled date: September 11, 2025

We are pleased to announce that Remote Command now supports UDP and TCP.

Remote Command is a feature that allows you to send commands to devices directly from the Soracom platform or Soracom API.

With this update, you can now send commands over UDP, which can be combined with eDRX to ensure reliable data transmission even while devices are in sleep mode and are unable to respond immediately. TCP is also supported, making it suitable when guaranteed delivery is required or when you need to receive responses from devices.

For more details, please refer to the Remote Command documentation.
