Soracom is IoT connectivity with powerful APIs that enable you to build world class applications
We are experiencing a service degradation within Russia affecting all MNOs for all Soracom plans. Devices that are configured to connect to these networks with Soracom SIMs may have difficulty attaching.
We are closely monitoring the situation and will make another announcement as soon as more information is available.
Among the AI models available for selection from SORACOM Flux's AI Actions, will reach end of support on January 15, 2026 (see Amazon Bedrock Model Lifecycle).
Consequently, AI actions in Flux apps utilizing this model will be disabled after January 15, 2026. If you are using Amazon Bedrock – Anthropic Claude 3 Opus, please consider switching to another AI model by January 15, 2026.
The AI models available for selection in SORACOM Flux AI Actions can be viewed at SORACOM Flux.

As previously announced, the User Console has now been updated so that creating a Napter On-Demand Remote Access session will use the new PortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API instead of the existing PortMapping:createPortMapping API.
For details regarding the differences between the new and existing APIs, refer to the previous announcement.
Check the SAM User, Role, and Default Permission in your account. If either of the following applies, please update the permissions as soon as possible:
PortMapping:createPortMapping API in a permission, and the corresponding user(s) should continue to be allowed or denied access to the On-Demand Remote Access featurePortMapping:createPortMappingForSim API in order to restrict a user's On-Demand Remote Access feature to specific SIMsFor instructions on updating permissions, refer to the Users & Roles documentation.
Note that if either of the above applies but you do not update the permissions, the following may occur:
Please note that the existing PortMapping:createPortMapping API is not deprecated. You may continue using it without interruption.
If you have any questions, please contact Soracom Support.
We have launched the Soracom IoT Template Gallery (Japanese), where you can easily explore Soracom Flux app templates.
The Soracom IoT Template Gallery (Japanese) allows you to browse the list of Soracom Flux app templates and learn how to get started with each template. Soracom Flux app templates enable you to easily create automated applications optimized for common use cases by utilizing pre-configured templates.
When you select a template, the basic configuration of a Flux app is duplicated, allowing you to start using the Flux app immediately with minimal parameter adjustments. Additionally, by customizing the settings of the created Flux app, you can build applications tailored to your specific needs.
Please take advantage of the Soracom IoT Template Gallery to expand the possibilities of Flux apps. For more details, please visit the Soracom IoT Template Gallery (Japanese).
Please note that this service is currently only available for customers located in Japan.

We are excited to announce that planNT1, Soracom's NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) satellite service subscription plan, is now officially available.
The planNT1 subscription can be added to an existing Soracom plan01s or plan-US IoT SIM through the use of Soracom's Subscription Container feature, enabling satellite coverage in addition to existing cellular networks for devices with 3GPP Release 17 NTN-compliant cellular modules. This allows compatible devices to keep using the extensive cellular network coverage provided by Soracom IoT SIMs while also providing satellite connectivity in other areas, without additional hardware or separate SIM.
As of today, planNT1 provides NTN satellite coverage in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and multiple European countries and cellular coverage in over 90 countries, with additional coverage planned.
For more information, please refer to Soracom Air for Satellite documentation.

A new group setting called "Skip Status Code" (skipStatusCode) has been added to the Soracom Funk UDP entry point and TCP entry point. When you enable this setting, Funk responses sent to devices omit the leading HTTP status code and the following space.
Previously, when using the Funk UDP entry point or TCP entry point (*1), Funk responses always included a prefix in the Soracom Funk format: HTTP status code + space + response body returned by the Function as a Service (FaaS) function.
For simple device implementations that did not use the status code, or for custom protocols where leading numeric characters created compatibility issues, additional processing was required to remove this prefix.
(*1) This also applies when using a Unified Endpoint with the response format set to SORACOMFunk.
When you enable "Skip Status Code" in the group settings:
HTTP status code + space is removed from responses returned via the UDP entry point and TCP entry point.Unified) are not affected; the statusCode field remains included.The Soracom CLI and Soracom API now include the skipStatusCode configuration parameter (Boolean). Set it to true to apply the same behavior programmatically.
For configuration steps and response examples, refer to the documentation below.
If you have any questions, please contact Soracom Support.
