  notes: >-
    The Newforma Konekt (formerly BIM Track) API supports two authentication styles. Integrations use
    OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect against the IdentityServer at https://auth.bimtrackapp.co using the PKCE
    (S256) Authorization Code flow; client_credentials, refresh_token, device_code and token-exchange
    grants are also advertised by the OIDC discovery document. Client id/secret are issued manually by
    Newforma via the partner API request form. Hub owners can alternatively generate a long-lived API
    access token presented as a Bearer token in the Authorization header (this is the single scheme the
    OpenAPI advertises).
