title: API Evangelist enhancements for the Drata Public API v2
version: 1.0.0
extends: openapi/drata-api-v2-openapi.yml
x-provenance:
generated: '2026-08-27'
method: generated
source: >-
Derived from openapi/drata-api-v2-openapi.yml plus Drata's own published documentation.
This overlay records API Evangelist annotations only; it never mutates the harvested spec.
spec_origin: >-
The base document was harvested verbatim from the Redocly developer-portal page data at
https://developers.drata.com/page-data/openapi/reference/v2/overview/page-data.json
(result.data.contentItem.data.redocStoreStr -> definition.data). Drata serves no
/openapi.json on either the docs host or the API host.

only the spec still learns them.

note: >-
20 DELETE operations, no restore/undo/unarchive counterpart anywhere in the contract
and no recovery window stated in the docs. Deletes destroy compliance evidence.

- target: $.paths.*.*[?(@.summary =~ /🧪/)]
description: >-
Drata marks unstable operations with a 🧪 suffix on the summary. Surface that as a
machine-readable flag, since the contract carries no `deprecated` or `x-beta` marker.
update:
x-stability: beta
x-stability-source: provider summary marker (🧪)
- target: $.paths.*.delete
description: >-
Flag every DELETE as irreversible. Drata publishes no restore path for any of them and the
objects being removed are audit evidence.
update:
x-reversible: false
x-consequence: destructive
x-agent-guidance: >-
Read and persist the full resource body before deleting. There is no API to restore it.
- target: $.components.securitySchemes.bearer
description: Clarify that the bearer credential is a long-lived API key, not a JWT.
update:
description: >-
Long-lived Drata API key presented as a bearer token. Created under Settings -> API Keys;
shown once; carries an expiry (12 months by default), an optional source-IP allowlist and
a scope selection (Custom / All read / All read and write). Revocation and expiry are
permanent.
