  https://api-developer.dev.fieldops.centrica.com/ plus the FieldOps Azure APIM management
  API and openapi/centrica-fieldops-identity-api-openapi.yml
description: >-
  Centrica publishes no API lifecycle governance. There is no versioning policy page, no
  deprecation policy, no Sunset/Deprecation header commitment, no changelog and no status
  page on any Centrica, British Gas, Bord Gais Energy or Hive host. What can be recorded is
  entirely structural: the FieldOps Identity API is versioned in the URI path (api/v1/identity),
  sits at Azure APIM apiRevision 1 with isCurrent true, declares OpenAPI info.version "1.0",
  and the FieldOps developer portal home page advertises a single availability figure —
  "99.95% availability. Our APIs can be used for mission-critical systems." That claim is a
  marketing statement on the DEVELOPMENT portal, not a contracted SLA document; no SLA terms,
  credits regime or measurement window is published.

    Verbatim portal claim ("99.95% availability — Our APIs can be used for mission-critical
    systems"). Advertised on the DEVELOPMENT environment portal with no supporting SLA
    document, credits schedule or measurement definition.
status_page: null
status_page_note: >-
  No status page found. status.centrica.com, status.britishgas.co.uk and
  status.fieldops.centrica.com do not resolve; the FieldOps portal exposes no service-health
  surface. British Gas communicates outages through its ordinary customer help pages, not a
  machine-readable status feed.
changelog: null
changelog_note: No dated API changelog or release-notes surface exists on any Centrica host.
