    ARMO Platform authenticates API calls with an account access key (Agent
    Access Key) generated in the platform under Settings > Agent Access Keys.
    The key is sent in the X-API-KEY request header. A session-cookie / OAuth2
    (OpenID) login flow also exists for the web console, but access keys are the
    preferred way to authenticate programmatic API calls.
