  description: >-
    The Upsun REST API uses OAuth2 bearer tokens. Users create an API token in
    the Console, then exchange it for a short-lived access token via
    grant_type=api_token at https://auth.upsun.com/oauth2/token (HTTP basic
    user platform-api-user). The bearer access token expires in 900 seconds
    (15 minutes); clients re-exchange on 401 Unauthorized. All API requests go
    to https://api.upsun.com.
