findings:
  - >-
    Every observed endpoint on https://www.connells.co.uk/api answers
    unauthenticated requests with HTTP 200 and a full JSON body. No API key
    header, no bearer token, no cookie and no signed request was required on any
    of listBranches, getBranch, listStaff, listTestimonials, listLocations or
    searchPlaces.
  - >-
    No WWW-Authenticate header was returned on any response, and no 401 or 403
    was produced by any probe.
  - >-
    /.well-known/openid-configuration and /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server
    return 404 on connellsgroup.co.uk, connells.co.uk, hamptons.co.uk and
    connells-surveyors.co.uk, so there is no OAuth or OIDC authorization server
    to discover. See well-known/connells-well-known.yml.
  - >-
    The only access control observed is volumetric, not identity-based:
    Cloudflare returns HTTP 429 "Too many requests" with Retry-After when the
    endpoints are polled quickly. See rate-limits/connells-rate-limits.yml.
  - >-
    myaccount.connells.co.uk is a consumer property account login, not a
    developer or API credential surface, and it does not front these endpoints.
caveat: >-
  Absence of authentication here is an observation about an undocumented
  internal website endpoint, not a Connells Group statement of open access.
  Connells Group publishes no API terms, no rate-limit policy and no acceptable
  use policy covering these endpoints.
