description: Authentication methods for Contio hosted MCP server
schemes:
- type: http-bearer
  name: OAuth 2.1 + PKCE
  evidence: 'Start authorization at https://app.contio.ai/v1/oauth/authorize with PKCE ( S256 ) and the scopes you need. Exchange the code at
    https://api.contio.ai/v1/oauth/token . The client sends the resulting cto_at_v1_... token on every MCP request: Authorization: Bearer cto_at_v1_...'
  location: header
  header: Authorization
  flows:
  - authorization_code
  authorize_url: https://app.contio.ai/v1/oauth/authorize
  how_to_obtain: Register the client (first‑party client_id) or use Dynamic Client Registration, then follow the PKCE authorization code flow
    to obtain an access token.
- type: http-bearer
  name: Workspace API Key
  evidence: PATs cannot carry the workspace:read / workspace:write scopes; for workspace‑admin tooling, use a workspace API key ( cto_wk_v1_ )
    as the bearer token instead.
  location: header
  header: Authorization
  how_to_obtain: Generate a workspace API key in the Contio app (details not provided on the page).
