    update:
      x-apievangelist-profile: https://apis.io/provider/usergems/
      x-api-evangelist-source: https://app.usergems.com/api/documentation
      x-write-only: true
      x-async-ack: >-
        A 200 acknowledges enqueueing, not completion. A contact pushed for
        job-change tracking does not appear in the prospects overview until a job
        change actually fires.
  - target: $.paths['/contact'].post
    update:
      x-rate-limit: 20 requests per second (shared per company API key)
      x-bulk-supported: false
      x-matching-key: email
      x-signal-fields: >-
        Up to 100 additional top-level string properties may be sent per contact.
        Each becomes a filterable Signal Field usable in audiences, scoring and
        Gem-E Conditional Instructions. Names must be distinct.
      x-relationship-type-values: >-
        Closed Won Opp Contact, Champion, User, Open Opp Contact, Closed Lost Opp
        Contact, Prospect, Other, plus any type created manually in UserGems
        settings.
  - target: $.paths['/contact'].delete
    update:
      x-destructive-default: >-
        Omitting both relationshipType and signal removes the contact from ALL
        relationship types and ALL signals, not just one. Scope the call
        deliberately.
      x-body-vs-query: >-
        Documented as "Query Parameters" but the provider's own curl example
        sends a JSON body.
  - target: $.components.securitySchemes.ApiKeyAuth
    update:
      x-key-granularity: >-
        One key per company, shared across all integrations; no sandbox key.
      x-leak-blast-radius: >-
        Provider-stated: because the API is write-only, a leaked key cannot read
        data — the risk is unauthorized writes.
