Get user's phone number in Firefox OS

Question

Is there any way to fetch user’s phone number in Firefox OS?

If so, any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

According to Mozilla's app permissions page, there is an permission called "phonenumberservice" but there is no information about it. Anyway, the permision is listed under the "Internal (Certified) app permissions", which means that, when available, it can only be used by "system-level apps and default apps created by Mozilla/operators/OEMs".

With Firefox 2.0 you should be able to use Mobile Identity API: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/MobileIdentity https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1021594 I believe the permission is:

"permissions": { "mobileid": {} }

And it is privileged.
