  title: API Evangelist enhancements — Franklin Templeton Detailed Product APIs
  version: 1.0.0
extends: ../openapi/franklin-resources-detailed-product-apis-openapi.yml
x-provenance:

  method: derived
  source: >-
    openapi/_original/franklin-resources-productionproductapi-1.0.0.json plus this repo's
    lifecycle/, conformance/ and authentication/ artifacts. Records API Evangelist's findings
    WITHOUT mutating Franklin Templeton's own contract. Nothing here is presented as the
    provider's own documentation.
actions:
  - target: $.info
    description: >-
      Record the observed lifecycle state. Both hosts named by this contract
      (api.franklintempleton.com, and api-dev.franklintempleton.com in the `host` field of the
      latest revision) had no DNS A record when probed on 2026-09-10, and the developer portal
      that fronted this API is archived only.
    update:
      x-api-evangelist-lifecycle:
        status: retired
        checked: '2026-09-10'
        api_host_resolves: false

        sunset_announced: false
        detail: lifecycle/franklin-resources-lifecycle.yml
  - target: $.info
    description: >-
      Record the host disagreement inside Franklin Templeton's own SwaggerHub organization: the
      revision named "ProductionProductAPI" (last modified 2019-10-22) carries
      host `api-dev.franklintempleton.com`, while the two earlier revisions of the identical
      document ("MyApi-Dev" and "your-api", 2019-06) carry `api.franklintempleton.com`. The
      production host is the one corroborated by Internet Archive captures of live /v1 responses.
    update:
      x-api-evangelist-host-note:
        declared_host: api-dev.franklintempleton.com
        production_host: api.franklintempleton.com
        basis: sibling revisions in the same first-party SwaggerHub organization + archived live /v1 captures
  - target: $
    description: >-
      Declare the tag the operations already use. All 7 operations carry the tag "Detailed Product
      APIs", but the contract has no top-level `tags` block declaring it.
    update:
      tags:
        - name: Detailed Product APIs
          description: Read-only reference, valuation and distribution data for Franklin Templeton funds.
  - target: $.paths.*.get
    description: >-
      Annotate every operation with the securities-identifier namespaces it accepts. These are
      stated in the `FundType` parameter description as free prose; this lifts them into a
      machine-readable list. See conformance/franklin-resources-conformance.yml.
    update:
      x-identifier-namespaces:
        open_standards: [ISIN, CUSIP, SEDOL, WKN, VALEREN_SYMBOL, Fund_CIC]
        vendor: [BLOOMBERG_IDENTIFIER, LIPPER_IDENTIFIER, REUTERS_SYMBOL, MEXID]
        proprietary: [FT_FUND_KEY, TICKER, ALL]
  - target: $.paths.*.get
    description: >-
      Record that authentication is required but never declared as a security scheme. The contract
      has no `securityDefinitions`; auth exists only as a required `Authorization` header
      parameter. See authentication/franklin-resources-authentication.yml.
    update:
      x-api-evangelist-auth:
        scheme: bearer
        declared_as_security_scheme: false
        token_endpoint_documented: false
  - target: $.paths.*.get
    description: >-
      Record the read-only classification. All 7 operations are GET with no side effects, which is
      why idempotency, dry-run and reversibility are `na` rather than absent in
      conventions/franklin-resources-conventions.yml.
    update:
      x-agentic-access:
        action_class: read
        consequence: none
        reversibility: na
