note: >-
Wawanesa publishes no OpenAPI, so this profile is not derived from a spec. It
is harvested from the only authentication metadata Wawanesa exposes on the
open internet: the identity providers in front of the gated broker channel.
These documents govern how a human broker signs in to the Broker Platform.
There is NO documented machine-to-machine credential, client-registration
path, or token endpoint for a third-party developer to call a Wawanesa
insurance API — onboarding runs through a Wawanesa Business Development
representative. The business-level auth model for the broker APIs is defined
by CSIO's API Security Standards (a standard authentication and authorization
API model for Canadian carriers and Broker Management System vendors), which
Wawanesa was certified against on 2024-10-29; the standard itself is
member-gated at csio.com and is not reproduced here.
