summary:
  types: [hmac-signed-api-key]
  api_key_in: [header]
  oauth2_flows: []
  notes: >-
    No OAuth / OpenID Connect. Private REST endpoints are authenticated with a
    per-request HMAC-SHA256 request signature keyed on a symmetric AuthToken
    issued alongside a ConnectionId in the customer portal. There is therefore
    no OAuth scope surface (scopes/ is intentionally omitted).

    headers:
      - name: BTNL-CONNECTION-ID
        description: Hex-encoded ConnectionId identifying the API connection.
      - name: BTNL-AUTH-TIMESTAMP
        description: >-
          ISO 8601 timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSZ). Must be within 30
          seconds of exchange time or the request is rejected.
      - name: BTNL-SIGNATURE
        description: >-
          Base64-encoded HMAC-SHA256 signature. The signed string is
          method + requestPath + queryString + headers + body, using the
          ConnectionId's hex-encoded AuthToken as the HMAC secret.
    credential_model: >-
      A ConnectionId + AuthToken pair provisioned in the customer portal. A
      connection grants access to data for all accounts associated with it.
