  description and x-code-samples), and the public Postman collection at

environments:
  - name: Test environment

    declared_in: openapi servers[0]
    default: true
    note: >-
      The contract's global security requirement is the `sandbox` scheme, and every
      x-code-sample in the Authentication operation targets sandbox-api.navisphere.com -
      the published examples are sandbox-first by design.
  - name: Production environment
    base_url: https://api.navisphere.com
    role: production
    declared_in: openapi servers[1]
separation:
  mechanism: distinct hostname
  key_prefixes: null
  mode_flag: null
  note: >-
    Test and live are separated by HOST, not by a key prefix or a mode flag. There is no way to
    tell a sandbox credential from a production credential by looking at it, which is a real
    operational hazard for an agent holding both.
credentials:
  self_service: false
  how_to_obtain: >-
    client_id and client_secret are issued by C.H. Robinson during onboarding. Customers start at
    https://api.navisphere.com/api/B2B/Portal/v1/documents/descriptions/Customer_Integration.docx;
    carriers start at https://developer.chrobinson.com/carrier. There is no signup form that
    returns a key.

    note: >-
      This is C.H. Robinson's actual onboarding harness - twelve runnable request flows that walk
      a new customer from token to quote to order to document to invoice to delete.
  in_spec_examples: true
  in_spec_example_note: >-
    Response examples are populated with realistic values (named LTL carriers, SCACs, rate codes
    400/405, quote and rate ids) and the Authentication operation carries x-code-samples in
    Curl, Java, NodeJS and C#.
note: >-
  No test card numbers, magic identifiers or simulated failure triggers are published - this is a
  freight API, not a payments API, and the sandbox is a real reduced-data environment rather than
  a value-driven simulator. Nothing here was invented; every value above is verbatim from the
  provider's own documents.
