  version: 1.0.0

  update:
    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.

  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.
