Abstract
Embodiments include a method for installing a subscription profile, a terminal, and a server. The method includes obtaining, by a local profile assistant (LPA) in the terminal, metadata of a subscription profile, determining, based on an authorization file, whether use of each policy rule included in the metadata is allowed. The method further includes obtaining, by the LPA, the subscription profile when the use of each policy rule included in the metadata is allowed. The method further includes sending the subscription profile to an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) in the terminal. The method further includes determining, by the eUICC based on the authorization file, whether use of the subscription profile is allowed. The method further includes installing, by the eUICC, the subscription profile when the use of the subscription profile is allowed.
