  scheme: application-signed
  description: >-
    Application-signed request (recommended for production). The Authorization
    header is "Application {application_key}:{signature}", where signature is a
    Base64-encoded HMAC-SHA256 computed over a canonicalized string built from
    the HTTP verb, Content-Type, a Content-MD5 of the body, the x-timestamp
    header, and the request path, signed with the Base64-decoded application
    secret. The application key and secret are created and managed in the Sinch
    Build dashboard. Because signing happens server-to-server, the secret is
    never exposed to the client.

  type: http
  scheme: basic
  description: >-
    HTTP Basic authentication using the application key as the username and the
    application secret as the password. Simple to set up and recommended only
    for prototyping; use application-signed requests in production.

notes: >-
  Both schemes are server-to-server. The Verification API is intended to be
  called from your backend (or via the Sinch mobile/web Verification SDKs);
  secrets should never be embedded in client applications. Verification result
  callbacks can additionally be signed by Sinch so your callback endpoint can
  validate authenticity.
