  Liesheng Group publishes no API of its own. Its owned brand SUUNTO operates the
  Suunto Cloud API (Integration API) behind the Suunto API Zone, an Azure API
  Management developer portal. Access requires acceptance into the Suunto partner
  program. Every Cloud API call carries TWO credentials: an OAuth2 bearer JWT and
  an APIM subscription key.
