Drinkotec Authentication

  https://drinkotec.ch/drinkotec-api/ — the provider's own API page. Live probe on
  2026-09-06 returned 503 (origin-wide Infomaniak maintenance), so the content was read
  from the Internet Archive capture of that same URL taken 2026-04-19
  (http://web.archive.org/web/20260419112516id_/https://drinkotec.ch/drinkotec-api/, 200).

documented_note: >-
  DRINKOTEC does NOT publish an authentication reference. The single public statement about
  authentication is one bullet on the API page — "supports OAuth2 authentication". There is
  no authorization endpoint, token endpoint, grant type, scope list, client-registration
  flow, key-issuance process or example request published anywhere on any DRINKOTEC host.
  Because this artifact records a claim rather than documentation, NO `Authentication`
  pointer is wired into apis.yml — emitting one would assert a reference page the provider
  does not serve.

      No OAuth 2.0 metadata is discoverable. /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server and
      /.well-known/openid-configuration return 404 on api.drinkotec.ch and iot.drinkotec.ch
      and 503 on drinkotec.ch — see well-known/drinkotec-well-known.yml.

    None published. The only call to action on the API page is a "MEET OUR SOFTWARE
    ENGINEERS" button linking to https://drinkotec.ch/book-a-visit/ — a scheduling form
    for an in-person or phone consultation at the company's Nyon (VAUD, Switzerland)
    office. Access to the API, and to the "complete reference documentation" the page says
    exists, runs through that conversation.
reference_documentation:
  claimed: true
  claim_text: >-
    "A complete reference documentation is available and includes every endpoint, attribute
    and supported method for the most recent release of the API."
  public_url: null
  note: >-
    The claim is made but no link, host, or path is given, and no reference was found on
    drinkotec.ch, api.drinkotec.ch, iot.drinkotec.ch, info.drinkotec.ch, in the Internet
    Archive's index of drinkotec.ch, or in web search. Note also that the page's own
    heading carries a leftover HTML title attribute reading "Integrating with the
    Lightspeed Retail API", indicating the copy was adapted from Lightspeed's API page —
    recorded here as an observation about the source of the wording, not a claim about
    the API itself.
