summary:
  types: [oauth2]
  oauth2_flows: [authorizationCode, refreshToken]
  token_type: bearer
  notes: >-
    Cuvva runs its own OAuth 2.0 implementation via the service-auth API. Clients
    obtain a short-lived JWT access_token (token_type: bearer) plus a rotating
    refresh_token. The authorization step is delivered by email (authorization
    codes sent to an identifier), which the docs explicitly note is NOT
    OAuth-spec-compliant for the authorization endpoint, though the token endpoint
    follows RFC 6749 section 3.2. Refresh tokens are single-use and rotate on every
    use; reuse revokes the whole chain.
schemes:
  - name: OAuth2
    type: oauth2
    sources: [https://github.com/cuvva/docs/blob/master/apis/auth.md]
    flows:
      - flow: authorizationCode
        authorizationUrl: https://api.prod.cuv-prod.app/1/service-auth/2 (send_authorization_code method)
        tokenUrl: https://api.prod.cuv-prod.app/1/service-auth/2 (authenticate method)
        notes: Authorization code delivered by email; not spec-compliant at the authorize endpoint.
      - flow: refreshToken
        tokenUrl: https://api.prod.cuv-prod.app/1/service-auth/2 (authenticate method)
        notes: Refresh tokens are single-use and rotate; the returned refresh_token must be used going forward.
  - name: BearerAccessToken
    type: http
    scheme: bearer
    bearerFormat: JWT
    sources: [https://github.com/cuvva/docs/blob/master/apis/auth.md]
    notes: Downstream services authorize requests with the JWT access_token as a bearer token; the JWT subject must match the user_id for non-internal requests.
