Abstract

A device may receive registration information for a toll-free data campaign. The toll-free data campaign may allow a content provider to pay costs of network data usage by user devices that access content associated with the toll-free data campaign. The device may identify a resource identifier included in the registration information. The resource identifier may identify the content associated with the toll-free data campaign. The device may apply a validation rule to the resource identifier. The device may determine whether the resource identifiers is associated with an error based on applying the validation rule. The device may selectively provide information that identifies the error based on determining whether the resource identifier is associated with the error.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A device, comprising:

one or more processors to:
receive registration information for a toll-free data campaign,
the toll-free data campaign allowing a content provider to pay costs of network data usage by user devices that access content associated with the toll-free data campaign;
identify one or more resource identifiers included in the registration information,
the one or more resource identifiers identifying the content associated with the toll-free data campaign;
apply one or more validation rules to the one or more resource identifiers to validate registration of the one or more resource identifiers for provisioning of the toll-free data campaign;
determine whether the one or more resource identifiers are associated with one or more errors based on applying the one or more validation rules;
and
selectively register the one or more resource identifiers for the toll-free data campaign based on determining whether the one or more resource identifiers are associated with the one or more errors,
where registration of the one or more resource identifiers is performed when the one or more resource identifiers are associated with no errors;
and
where registration of the one or more resource identifiers is prevented when the one or more resource identifiers are associated with one or more errors.

9 more elements

A computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
receive registration information associated with a toll-free data campaign,
the toll-free data campaign allowing a content provider to pay costs of network data usage by user devices that access content associated with the toll-free data campaign;
identify a plurality of resource identifiers, included in the registration information, for accessing the content associated with the toll-free data campaign;
determine whether the plurality of resource identifiers comply with one or more validation rules to validate registration of the plurality of resource identifiers for provisioning of the toll-free data campaign;
and
selectively register the plurality of resource identifiers for the toll-free data campaign when the plurality of resource identifiers comply with the one or more validation rules,
where the plurality of resource identifiers are registered when the plurality of resource identifiers comply with the one or more validation rules;
and
where the plurality of resource identifiers are not registered when the plurality of resource identifiers do not comply with the one or more validation rules.

7 more elements

A method, comprising:

receiving, by a device, registration information for a toll-free data campaign,
the toll-free data campaign allowing a content provider to pay costs of network data usage by user devices that access content associated with the toll-free data campaign;
identifying, by the device, one or more resource identifiers, that provide access to the content associated with the toll-free data campaign, included in the registration information;
determining, by the device, whether the one or more resource identifiers comply with one or more validation rules to validate registration of the one or more resource identifiers for provisioning of the toll-free data campaign;
and
selectively registering, by the device, the one or more resource identifiers for the toll-free data campaign,
where registration of the one or more resource identifiers is performed when the one or more resource identifiers comply with the one or more validation rules;
and
where registration of the one or more resource identifiers is prevented when the one or more resource identifiers do not comply with the one or more validation rules.
