  title: Anecdotes FedRAMP 20x Trust Center Public API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: 'The FedRAMP 20x API exposes the contents of the Anecdotes Trust Center (https://trust.anecdotes.ai/)

    programmatically. It is divided into three tiers: public endpoints that require no authentication,

    an authorization tier that exchanges a static API key for a short-lived JWT, and gated endpoints that

    return the authorization package, Key Security Indicators (KSIs) and the evidence behind them.


    Derived by API Evangelist from the provider''s own published Postman collection

    (FEDRAMP-20X-API.postman_collection.json, retrieved from the public /fedramp20x/v1/public/info

    endpoint) and the documented endpoint tables at

    https://help.anecdotes.ai/technical-setup/fedramp-20x-trust-center-and-api.

    Paths, methods, parameters, headers and content types are transcribed from those sources only;

    no response schemas were invented where the provider did not publish one.'
