  version: v1
  description: Partner API for MODERN (modernis.com), a two-way customer interaction platform for heavy-equipment dealerships. The API lets authorized partners read dashboards, manage service work orders, post events and customer notifications, and maintain technicians and notes on a franchise's behalf. All requests use bearer-token authentication; tokens are obtained by exchanging franchise username/password via HTTP Basic auth against the /token endpoint and are valid for 24 hours, scoped to a single franchise. Every response returns a Modern-Request-Log-ID header used for support.
