note: >-
  Cross-cutting API semantics for Veeam Kasten (Kasten K10). K10 is a self-hosted,
  Kubernetes-native platform: its primary programmable surface is the set of
  Kubernetes Custom Resources it installs (Policy, RestorePoint, BackupAction,
  RestoreAction, ExportAction, and related groups such as *.kio.kasten.io) plus an
  in-cluster REST API served through the K10 gateway. Because it runs inside the
  customer's cluster there is no public multi-tenant base URL.
authentication:
  style: bearer-token
  detail: >-
    Authorization: Bearer <token>, where the token is any credential the Kubernetes
    API server can verify (typically a ServiceAccount token). See
    authentication/kasten-authentication.yml.
resource_model:
  paradigm: kubernetes-crd
  detail: >-
    Objects are Kubernetes Custom Resources reconciled declaratively; standard
    kubectl create/apply/get/delete semantics apply. A REST API surface mirrors
    these under the K10 gateway.
idempotency:
  supported: partial
  mechanism: kubernetes-declarative
  detail: >-
    Kubernetes resource creation is name-scoped and declarative (apply is
    idempotent by object name). No dedicated Idempotency-Key HTTP header is
    documented for the REST surface.
pagination:
  style: kubernetes-continue
  detail: >-
    List operations follow Kubernetes list semantics (limit + continue token) where
    applicable.
versioning:
  style: semver-product
  detail: See lifecycle/kasten-lifecycle.yml (product-level MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH).
error_envelope:
  style: kubernetes-status
  detail: >-
    Errors surface as Kubernetes-style Status objects / HTTP status codes rather
    than RFC 9457 problem+json.
rate_limiting:
  signal: none-documented
  detail: >-
    No public rate-limit signaling headers documented; the API is single-tenant and
    in-cluster.
