Abstract
A computing device uses an integration module to manage bulk activation orders placed for machine-to-machine (M2M) devices. The integration module is configured to receive an M2M bulk activation order from a first user, where the M2M bulk activation order has information associated with a plurality of electronic devices. The integration module provides a single extensible markup language (XML) device identification request to a first database to identify a plurality of M2M devices from the plurality of electronic devices. The integration module also requests, via an XML number reservation request, a unique number for each respective M2M device of the first plurality of M2M devices. The integration module then employs the unique numbers to activate the plurality of M2M devices. After activation, the integration module may notify the user via a notification that the plurality of M2M devices have been activated.
