Your dashboard gives you the ability to take direct actions on your SIMs while referencing the most important information you need for troubleshooting. We provide as much control in your dashboard as our API provides so that you can take any actions you need regardless of which tool you use. You can take actions on a single SIM by clicking into the device's page, or from a SIM's details page. Most actions you can take on a SIM are also available as bulk actions from the SIMs pages.
What actions can I take from a SIM's details page?
Every action you can take on a single SIM can be found in the page header.
