The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
GSMA SGP.32 is a technical specification from the GSM Association defining eSIM remote SIM provisioning for Internet of Things devices, standardizing how connectivity profiles are downloaded, switched, and managed on embedded SIMs without requiring a full local user interface. It introduces an IoT Profile Assistant role so constrained or headless devices can change mobile network profiles remotely instead of relying on a physical SIM swap.
