x-apievangelist-provider: timescale
x-apievangelist-provider-name: Tiger Data (formerly Timescale)
x-apievangelist-harvested-from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/timescale/tiger-cli/main/openapi.yaml
x-apievangelist-note: >-
The spec is not published at a docs URL. It lives in the Tiger CLI repository,
where oapi-codegen generates the CLI's API client from it. This overlay records
what the raw document omits.

update:
securitySchemes:
basicAuth:
type: http
scheme: basic
description: >-
HTTP Basic authentication with Tiger Cloud client credentials — the public
access key as the username and the secret key as the password. Documented at
https://www.tigerdata.com/docs/get-started/quickstart/rest-api ; credentials
are created in Tiger Console. The source spec declares no securitySchemes at
all, which is why authentication_documented cannot be read from it directly.
bearerAuth:
type: http
scheme: bearer
description: >-
OAuth user bearer token, used by Tiger Console and the Tiger CLI after
`tiger auth login`. The getAuthInfo response discriminates PAT (`apiKey`)
callers from OAuth (`oauth`) callers.
- target: $.servers
update:
x-apievangelist-alternate-hosts:
- https://console.cloud.timescale.com/public/api/v1
x-apievangelist-note: >-
The legacy timescale.com console host still answers on the same path and returns
the same JSON error envelope; both hosts were probed and returned
HTTP 401 {"code":"UNAUTHORIZED"} for an unauthenticated request.
