  title: DoControl GraphQL API — API Evangelist enhancements
  version: 1.0.0
x-provenance:
  generated: '2026-09-06'
  method: generated
  source: >-
    Enhancements derived from DoControl's own documentation
    (https://docs.docontrol.io/docontrol-user-guide/system-management/api.md and the
    DoControl API action pages under /workflows/), plus live probes of
    https://apollo-gateway-v4-api.prod.docontrol.io/graphql on 2026-09-06.
  extends: openapi/docontrol-graphql-api-openapi.yml
  note: The base spec is left untouched.
actions:
- target: $.info
  description: Record the documentation, MCP and support surface on the spec itself.

  description: >-
    Record the documented request constraints, the GraphQL error convention, and the observed
    unauthenticated response — none of which the base spec carries.
  update:
    x-request-constraints:
      max_payload: 5MB
      timeout_seconds: 30
      operations_per_request: 1
      pagination_supported: false
      source: https://docs.docontrol.io/docontrol-user-guide/workflows/define-workflow-settings/action-settings/utilities/docontrol-api-action.md
    x-error-convention:
      style: graphql
      description: >-
        A GraphQL API returns 200 OK even on error. Errors arrive in the `errors` array with
        `message`, `locations` and `path`; 5xx means the server itself is unavailable.
      source: https://docs.docontrol.io/docontrol-user-guide/system-management/api.md
    x-observed-errors:
    - status: 401
      body: MISSING ACCESS_TOKEN
      content_type: text/html
      condition: no Authorization header
      observed: '2026-09-06'
    x-permission-required: admin
    x-documented-operations:
    - hrisUsers
    - startGoogleRemediationAssessment
    - googleRemediationAssessment
- target: $.paths['/graphql'].post.responses['200']
  description: Note that a 200 can carry an error payload, so status alone is not a success signal.
  update:
    x-success-is-not-status: >-
      A 200 with a non-empty `errors` array is a failed operation. Agents must inspect the body,
      not the status code.
