summary:

  note: >-
    Two distinct token classes. API tokens authenticate the event-retrieval REST
    API (apiv2) and MUST NOT be used to send data. Customer tokens authenticate
    the HTTP/S ingestion endpoint and must NOT be used to query. Basic auth with
    Loggly account username/password is also historically supported for the
    retrieval API but bearer API tokens are the current recommendation.
schemes:
- name: apiToken
  type: http
  scheme: bearer
  applies_to: Loggly Event Retrieval API (apiv2)
  location: Authorization header
  format: 'Authorization: bearer <api-token>'
  provisioning: >-
    Created in Loggly Log Settings > API Tokens > Add New. Used for search,
    events, iterate, fields, and stats endpoints.
