docs: https://sendpulse.com/integrations/api
notes:
- 'Both methods travel in the same Authorization: Bearer header, so a server cannot tell a short-lived OAuth token
  from a permanent API key by the request alone.'
- A static API key never expires and carries full account permissions; up to 5 per account.
- The token endpoint POST /oauth/access_token is documented but is NOT declared as an operation in any of the 19
  published OpenAPI specs — a client generated purely from the specs cannot authenticate.
- One spec (chatbots, crm, edu, facebook, file-manager, instagram, live-chat, popups, telegram, tiktok, viber-chatbot,
  whatsapp) misspells the scheme key as "outh2" rather than "oauth2"; it is a naming typo in the published contract,
  not a different mechanism.
- The MCP server at mcp.sendpulse.com uses a separate authorization_code + PKCE flow with dynamic client registration,
  or X-SP-ID / X-SP-SECRET headers.
