  note: There is no developer signup, no self-serve key issuance, and no public sandbox. API access requires an

legacy_note: The legacy Welcome Open API spec documents the identical flow against https://accounts.welcomesoftware.com
  with the same three scopes, and supported ONLY the authorization code flow. Client credentials is an Optimizely-era
  addition.
