  description: 'REST bulk-export service that provides access to WO Network, WO Traffic and WO Omni data "in a unified version
    agnostic manner". Every export is asynchronous: a submit call returns a RequestId and the result is pushed later, in chunks,
    to a destination the caller nominates — an HTTP endpoint, FTP, local storage, e-mail, AWS S3, Google Cloud or the caller''s
    own Kafka brokers — with a callback acknowledgement closing the loop. Authenticated by three flat request headers (partner-id,
    api-key, agreement-key) issued out of band by WideOrbit Support under what the guide calls a "closed authentication model".
    This is the only WideOrbit API with a publicly readable reference, and that reference is a 60-page PDF; the base URL is
    templated as {root} and is provisioned per partner rather than published.'

    contract anywhere: every OpenAPI candidate path on apigateway.wideorbit.com (/openapi.json, /swagger.json, /v1/openapi.json,
    /swagger/v1/swagger.json, /api-docs, /docs, /redoc) 302s to the WO Central Keycloak sign-in, so the gateway''s catalog
    and specs stay inside the authenticated Dev Portal while the one public reference ships as a PDF.'
