  notes: >-
    Chatfuel uses two distinct token schemes. The Dashboard API authenticates
    with a Bearer "Dashboard API Token" in the Authorization header; the token is
    generated once from the dashboard profile and cannot be retrieved again. The
    Broadcasting API authenticates with a per-bot chatfuel_token passed as a
    request parameter alongside the bot and user identifiers. No OAuth 2.0 or
    OpenID Connect surface is documented.
