  types: [none, apiKey]
  notes: >-
    Dott exposes two variants of the same GBFS 2.3 feeds. The PUBLIC feeds under
    gbfs.api.ridedott.com/public/v2 are open (no credentials) and use rotating vehicle
    IDs, matching the open-data intent of GBFS. The PARTNER feeds require authentication
    (credentials issued by Dott to integration partners) and expose stable, non-rotating
    vehicle IDs. There is no OAuth2 / OpenID Connect surface; the public spec declares no
    security schemes.

      Authenticated partner variant; credentials are provisioned by Dott. Removes the
      rotating-ID behavior of the public feed. Well-known paths on the API host return 401,
      confirming an auth gate. Exact header name is not published publicly.
