note: Acquia Cloud Platform API uses OAuth 2.0 client credentials tied to per-user API tokens, with access governed by Teams and Permissions roles rather than a scope catalog; the only documented scope is organization:{uuid}, required when the organization uses Federated Authentication (https://docs.acquia.com/acquia-cloud-platform/cloud-platform-api-v2-authentication).
