Hnry Authentication

  live probes of https://app.hnry.io/api-docs, https://app.hnry.io/oauth/authorize and
  https://zapier.com/apps/hnry/integrations
note: >-
  DERIVED FROM PROBES, NOT FROM PROVIDER DOCUMENTATION. Hnry publishes no public authentication
  reference: the API reference at app.hnry.io/api-docs is behind HTTP Basic, and the Hnry help
  centre article that explains connecting Hnry to Zapier also returns 401. Everything below is
  what was observable anonymously from the live platform plus the published Zapier listing.
  Nothing here is a quoted Hnry statement about its own auth model, and no scheme names, header
  names, token formats or scopes are asserted, because none are published.
observed:
- surface: API reference
  url: https://app.hnry.io/api-docs
  status: 401
  scheme: HTTP Basic
  detail: >-
    Responds `WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm=""` with an empty body. The whole /api-docs/* tree
    behaves identically (/api-docs/, /api-docs/index.html, /api-docs/swagger.json,
    /api-docs/openapi.json all 401), so the documentation itself — not just the API — is
    credential-gated. The same behaviour is present on the UAT host, https://uat.hnry.io/api-docs.
- surface: OAuth authorization endpoint
  url: https://app.hnry.io/oauth/authorize
  status: 302
  location: https://app.hnry.io/users/sign_in?mode=api
  detail: >-
    A live /oauth/authorize route exists and redirects anonymous callers to an API-mode sign-in.
    The `?mode=api` parameter and the Rails/Doorkeeper-shaped path are consistent with an
    authorization-code flow, but /oauth/token and /oauth/applications both return 404 anonymously
    and no client-registration, scope or grant-type documentation is published, so the flow cannot
    be characterised further without credentials.
- surface: Zapier integration
  url: https://zapier.com/apps/hnry/integrations
  status: 200
  detail: >-
    Hnry ships a public, non-beta Zapier app in the Accounting category. A Zapier app requires a
    working authentication mechanism against the Hnry API, and Hnry's own help centre documents
    connecting an account, but that article (help.hnry.io/en/articles/5094374) returns 401, so the
    credential type Zapier collects could not be confirmed from a Hnry-published source.
oauth:
  discovery_document: null
  discovery_probe:
    url: https://app.hnry.io/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server
    status: 404
  scopes_published: false
mtls: false
public_signup_for_api_access: false
public_signup_note: >-
  There is no developer signup, sandbox key issuance or API-key self-service page. API access is a
  property of a funded Hnry customer account (https://app.hnry.io/signup/jurisdiction_selection).
gaps:
- No public authentication reference — the auth documentation is behind the same wall as the API.
- No /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server or /.well-known/openid-configuration on any host.
- No published scopes, token lifetimes, rotation policy or key-prefix convention.
