note: >-
  SimpleNexus's API is now delivered as the nCino Mortgage API, which explicitly
  "replaces the legacy SimpleNexus API." The new API uses OAuth 2.0. Exact grant
  type, token endpoint, header format, and scope list were not exposed in the
  public docs excerpt (they sit behind the Authentication and "Obtaining API
  Credentials" guides). Captured at the type level from the published docs; not
  fabricated beyond what the provider states.
