  description: >-
    All Merchant API and Channel API calls are authenticated with a per-tenant
    API key passed as the `apikey` query parameter. Generate the key in the
    ChannelEngine web app under Settings > Merchant API keys. ChannelEngine
    warns that passing the key in the URL can be logged by intermediaries, so
    treat keys as secrets and rotate as needed. The base URL is
    https://{subdomain}.channelengine.net/api (append your tenant subdomain).

  note: >-
    Distinct from API-key data access, the ChannelEngine web application is
    secured by an OpenID Connect identity provider at login.channelengine.net.
    This is not used to call the data APIs.
