NordLayer Partner / MSP API

name: NordLayer Partner / MSP API
description: Partner-facing API behind the NordLayer Service Management Portal. API keys are self-issued
  in the SMP Integrations tab with expiry and one-time visibility, and let MSPs create client organizations,
  retrieve account details and statuses, and track license usage. The help centre links a "NordLayer MSP
  API Documentation" PDF for the full specification, but that published link currently returns 404, so
  no machine-readable contract is publicly retrievable.
