versioning:
  scheme: uri-path
  note: >-
    Two different version conventions coexist in the estate. The VisionLink APIs
    carry an explicit /v1/ segment inside the product path
    (https://services.cat.com/catDigital/assetSummary/v1/assets,
    https://services.cat.com/catDigital/faultsHistory/v1/faults). The ISO 15143-3
    surface carries no version segment at all
    (https://services.cat.com/telematics/iso15143/fleet/{pageNumber}) — it is
    versioned by the external standard (AEMP 2.0) rather than by Caterpillar.
  current:
    visionlink: v1
    iso_15143_3: AEMP 2.0 (ISO 15143-3)

      summary: >-
        Caterpillar moved its API estate to a new authentication system and
        required every API consumer to migrate to new credentials by 30 June 2026
        to keep access. This is the largest recorded breaking change in the
        estate and is consistent with the PingFederate authorization server now
        serving fedlogin.cat.com.

status_page: null
status_page_note: >-
  No status page was found for the Cat Digital APIs. status.cat.com and
  status.caterpillar.com do not resolve; the Digital Marketplace publishes a
  release-notes manager and a news feed, neither of which reports live
  availability. Equipment Management release notes for the Cat App and My.Cat.com
  are published on cat.com but cover the applications, not the API gateway.

  sandbox_note: >-
    Cat Digital states the VisionLink APIs are available in the production
    environment only. No sandbox, test tenant, mock server or magic test
    identifiers are published, which is why no sandbox/ artifact exists in this repo.
