idempotency:
  supported: false
  notes: >-
    No general Idempotency-Key header is documented. One resource-specific
    pattern exists: creating an input field requires the CLIENT to generate the
    UUID id, making that create naturally idempotent on retry. This is not a
    provider-wide idempotency contract.
pagination:
  style: unknown
  notes: List endpoints (locations, lines, users, ticket search) are documented without an explicit cursor/offset pagination contract in the OpenAPI.
versioning:
  style: uri-path
  current: v1
  see: lifecycle/qminder-lifecycle.yml
partial_update:
  style: patch-merge
  notes: PATCH edit endpoints accept only the fields you want to change; omitted fields are unchanged; set a field to null to clear it.
