info:
  description: 'API documentation for the legacy UTZ Integrations service (v1).


    This API enables partners and external applications to retrieve and embed UserTesting content, including clips, sessions, and highlight reels, and to access study and workspace metadata. Responses are designed to support rich previews and embedded playback experiences in third-party products.


    Endpoints require bearer token authentication and return standard HTTP error payloads for unauthorized or invalid requests.
