summary:
  types:
  - http
  scheme: bearer (Personal Access Token)
  scopes: v3 Business Documents endpoints require per-endpoint token scopes (resource:action)
notes: Authentication for all Xentral APIs (current API, legacy REST API, legacy Standard
  API) is via Personal Access Tokens (PATs) created under Administration > Account settings
  > Developer Settings > Personal Access Tokens (admin rights required). Tokens are shown
  once at creation, have unlimited permissions and no expiration date, and can be revoked
  by deletion at any time. Some legacy /shopimport/* and /v1/reports endpoints are not
  accessible with PATs. More granular token access control is documented as a planned
  enhancement.
