  note: >-
    Conversica's API is authenticated in both directions with HTTP Basic over HTTPS.
    Conversica issues one credential pair for its own endpoint; the customer issues a
    single credential pair that Conversica uses for every customer-hosted endpoint.
schemes:
- name: basicAuth
  type: http
  scheme: basic
  description: |-
    HTTPS basic access authentication. Conversica issues a username and password for
    the Conversica endpoint; the customer issues a single username/password pair that
    Conversica uses for both customer endpoints. API usernames have a five-character
    minimum. Credentials are obtained from a Conversica technical account manager.

  issuance: >-
    Requested from the customer's Conversica technical account manager when the customer is
    ready for development. Applications must additionally be tested and approved by
    Conversica before they may be enabled.
  constraints:
  - Five character minimum for API usernames.
  - Both customer endpoints must share one username/password pair.
  rotation_policy_published: false
  expiry: none - credentials are long-lived shared secrets
  scopes: none - Basic auth carries no scope or permission model
oauth2:
  supported: true
  direction: conversica-to-customer
  description: >-
    Conversica documents OAuth 2.0 as an alternative for authenticating Conversica's
    outbound calls into a customer's own API, so the customer does not have to share direct
    user credentials. Setup is arranged through a technical account manager or a support
    case to support@conversica.com.
  authorization_url: null
  token_url: null
  grant_types_published: false
  scopes_published: false
  note: >-
    Because no endpoints, grant types or scopes are published, no scopes artifact is
    derivable and derive-oauth-scopes.py correctly returns zero.

not_supported:
  api_keys: true
  bearer_tokens: true
  openid_connect: true
  mutual_tls: true
  webhook_signing: true
  note: >-
    Each of the above was searched for in the published documentation and probed where
    applicable (/.well-known/openid-configuration returns 404 on every Conversica host).
    There is no webhook signature or HMAC contract, so Basic auth is the whole of the
    authentication story on the inbound callbacks.
