description: >-
  Globant runs three authentication models across three separate surfaces, and one of them is unusually
  well documented for agents: glob.ai publishes an auth.md that states in plain language what exists,
  what is gated, and — explicitly, so agents stop probing — what does NOT exist.
surfaces:
  - surface: Glob.AI public API
    host: glob.ai
    spec: ../openapi/globant-glob-ai-public-api-openapi.json
    docs: https://glob.ai/auth.md
    schemes:
      - type: none
        applies_to:
          - GET /api/catalog
          - GET /api/v1/health
          - /.well-known/api-catalog
          - /openapi.json
          - /docs/api.md
          - /.well-known/agent-skills/index.json
          - /llms.txt
          - /llms-full.txt
        note: The OpenAPI declares no securitySchemes and no security requirement; the surface is genuinely anonymous.
      - type: session
        applies_to: ['everything else on the glob.ai origin']
        mechanism: Browser session via Globant Access Management (GAM) single sign-on
        self_service: false
    declared_absences:
      - 'No password grant'
      - 'No client-credentials flow'
      - 'No API-key self-service'
      - 'No self-service or anonymous agent registration — programmatic access is provisioned by authenticated users from inside the platform'
      - 'No OAuth/OIDC discovery metadata: this origin is not an OAuth issuer (/.well-known/openid-configuration, /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server and /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource are not served)'
      - 'No agent-autonomous payments; checkout requires human card entry'
    access_path: 'https://glob.ai — reviewed request, human-in-the-loop provisioning'
  - surface: Glob.AI Hubs Orchestrator (MCP)
    host: api.beta.glob.ai
    docs: https://glob.ai/.well-known/agent-skills/orchestrator-mcp-setup/SKILL.md
    schemes:
      - type: apiKey
        name: MCP_TOKEN
        in: env
        mechanism: Token passed to the local stdio MCP server as an environment variable
        issuance: 'Minted by a signed-in human in the Glob.AI console (https://aipods.glob.ai) from a project runner setup'
        self_service: false
    observed:
      - {url: 'https://api.beta.glob.ai/api/v1/projects', status: 401, body: '{"detail":"Authentication required"}'}
      - {url: 'https://api.beta.glob.ai/api/v1/health', status: 200, body: '{"status":"ok","version":"0.1.0"}'}
  - surface: Globant Enterprise AI (Glob.AI OS)
    host: api.saia.ai
    docs: https://docs.globant.ai/en/wiki?20,Glob.AI+OS+API+Reference
    schemes:
      - type: http
        scheme: bearer
        variable: GEAI_APITOKEN
        scope: project
        mechanism: 'HTTP Bearer token; a per-project API token'
      - type: http
        scheme: bearer
        variable: GEAI_ORGANIZATION_APITOKEN
        scope: organization
        mechanism: 'HTTP Bearer token; required for organization-level endpoints (admin/organizations, usageLimits/organizations/*)'
      - type: oauth2
        variable: OAuth_accesstoken
        mechanism: 'Temporary OAuth access tokens offered for enhanced security'
        note: >-
          The docs reference OAuth access tokens but publish no authorization/token endpoint, no scope
          reference and no discovery document. No scopes/ artifact was written for this reason — see
          notes.
    token_management:
      docs: https://docs.globant.ai/en/wiki?564,API+Tokens
      operations:
        - 'POST /projects/tokens'
        - 'GET /organization/project/{id}/tokens'
        - 'GET /projects/tokens/{ApiTokenId}'
        - 'PUT /projects/tokens/{ApiTokenId}'
        - 'DELETE /projects/tokens/{ApiTokenId}'
        - 'GET /accessControl/apitoken/validate'
    related_errors:
      - {code: 5, message: Api Key Not Found}
      - {code: 6, message: ApiToken not found or blocked}
      - {code: 7, message: ApiToken out of scope}
      - {code: 101, message: Refresh token error}

      - {code: 122, message: Session token error, login again}
  - surface: Legacy Globant gateway
    host: api.globant.com
    docs: null
    schemes:
      - type: unknown
        mechanism: 'Unknown. Every path, including / and /.well-known/*, returns HTTP 401 {"status":"Error","description":" Authentication Error"}.'
    note: >-
      No public documentation for this host was found anywhere. It is a live, wholly gated gateway with
      no discoverable contract.
notes:
  - >-
    No scopes/globant-scopes.yml was written. glob.ai/auth.md states the origin is not an OAuth issuer,
    the GEAI docs name OAuth access tokens without publishing a scope reference, and no OpenAPI with
    oauth2 securitySchemes exists to derive a baseline from. An invented scope list would be fabrication.
  - >-
    RBAC inside Globant Enterprise AI is documented separately at
    https://docs.globant.ai/en/wiki?242,Managing+Roles+and+Permissions+in+Glob.AI+OS and is a
    platform-internal permission model, not an API scope surface.
