    The version is the first path segment, e.g. https://api.contify.com/v4.1/updates.
    Contify's own published curl examples use v4.1 while the announcement post calls the
    release "v4"; both answer on the live host.

  deprecation_header: unknown
  note: >-
    No deprecation policy, sunset schedule or RFC 8594 Sunset/Deprecation header support is
    published on any public Contify page. v1, v2 and v3 are already gone from the live host
    with no published removal notice, so the removal cadence is unannounced. NO Deprecation
    pointer is wired in apis.yml.

  evidence: >-
    "99.9% uptime SLA — Robust infrastructure powering real-time monitoring to ensure your
    applications always have access to critical business news data." Stated on the Business
    News API product page; the contractual SLA document itself is not published and is
    presumably part of the enterprise agreement.

status_page:
  url: null
  note: >-
    No status page exists. status.contify.com and support.contify.com do not resolve
    (NXDOMAIN, 2026-09-05) and https://contify.statuspage.io/ redirects to Atlassian's own
    product marketing page, i.e. the subdomain is unclaimed. A 99.9% uptime SLA is
    advertised with no public availability reporting behind it. NO StatusPage pointer is
    wired in apis.yml.
