  Great American publishes three named environments for every Carrier Services API — DEV, UAT and PROD —
  each with its own base URL and its own OAuth token endpoint, and the onboarding process explicitly
  includes a development/testing phase and a UAT phase before production. There is no self-service
  sandbox: credentials for DEV/UAT are issued through the Carrier Services engagement.
self_service: false
environments:
  - name: DEV
    base_url_pattern: https://dev01.api.gaig.com/{service}
    token_endpoint: https://dev01.api.gaig.com/oauth/token
    purpose: Development engagement — feature development and testing.
  - name: UAT
    base_url_pattern: https://uat01.api.gaig.com/{service}
    token_endpoint: https://uat01.api.gaig.com/oauth/token
    purpose: User acceptance testing prior to production delivery.
  - name: PROD
    base_url_pattern: https://prod01.api.gaig.com/{service}
    token_endpoint: https://prod01.api.gaig.com/oauth/token
    purpose: Production.
environment_signal_in_credentials:
  field: api_product_list_json
  note: >-
    The granted API products carry the environment in the identifier — the documented example values are
    "issuance-dev" and "rating-dev" — so a token itself tells the client which environment it is scoped to.
test_data:
  published: false
  note: >-
    No test cards, magic identifiers, fixture policies or seeded test accounts are published. Request and
    response shapes are not static either: POST /api/docs returns the request/response body a given
    consumer should send for a given endpoint, scoped by factors such as business division, product and
    state, so test payloads are obtained from the live API rather than from a published fixture set.
onboarding:
  process:
    - Discovery Session — understand needs and review offerings.
    - Business Specification and Requirements — deep-dive assessment.
    - Development Engagement — feature development and testing.
    - Delivery and Support Discussion — UAT and production support.
