summary: >-
  Forecast uses a single static API-key scheme. Each integration is issued its
  own API key from the Admin module and presents it on every request in the
  X-FORECAST-API-KEY header over TLS. There is no OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, or
  short-lived token flow. Keys grant full account access and can be disabled or
  deleted from Admin if compromised.
schemes:
- id: forecast_api_key
  type: apiKey

  description: >-
    Per-integration API key generated in the Forecast Admin module (Admin ->
    API Keys -> Generate New API Key). Sent on every request. Grants full
    access to the account; treat like a password. Keys can be individually
    disabled or deleted if compromised.

  redirects to accelo.com, but the api.forecast.it API host and X-FORECAST-API-KEY
  scheme remain live.
