summary:
  types:
  - http-bearer-jwt
  - api-key-derived
  token_type: bearer
  token_format: JWT
model: Netography Fusion authenticates all API calls with a JWT bearer access_token. There is no static
  API key sent on each request; instead a short-lived bearer token is minted, then sent as the Authorization
  header.
schemes:
- name: apiKeyJwt
  kind: api-key -> JWT bearer
  token_endpoint: https://api.netography.com/api/v1/auth/token
  detail: Create a NETOSECRET API key in the Fusion Portal (Settings > User Management > API Keys). The
    netosecret encodes appkey/appname/shortname/sharedsecret + API URL. Sign a JWT request token with
    the shared secret and POST it as the `jwt` field to /api/v1/auth/token; the response access_token
    is the bearer token.
- name: userCredentials
  kind: password -> JWT bearer
  token_endpoint: https://api.netography.com/api/auth/bearer/token
  detail: POST username/password (x-www-form-urlencoded) to obtain an access_token.
- name: refreshToken
  kind: refresh -> JWT bearer
  token_endpoint: https://api.netography.com/api/auth/bearer/refresh
  detail: POST a refresh_token to obtain a new access_token.
usage: 'Authorization: Bearer <access_token>'
