    description: >-
      Every GraphQL request to https://greymatter.myreliaquest.com/graphql must carry a dedicated
      high-entropy API key in an X-API-KEY header. Keys are minted in GreyMatter > Settings > API Key
      Management ("New API Key"), shown once at creation, and carry an expiration date (default one
      year). Normal email/password login credentials cannot be used. All calls must be HTTPS; plain
      HTTP and unauthenticated requests fail. ReliaQuest stores a one-way hash of the key.
    key_policy:
      one_key_per_user: true

      default_expiry: 1 year
      renewal: not supported — create a new key; creating a new key invalidates the old one

    multi_entity_header:
      name: x-reliaquest-customer
      value: the customer headerSlug (from the `customer`/`customers` queries)

      The SearchLight Portal API authenticates with HTTP Basic credentials (a portal API key id and
      secret sent as username/password) on every request to https://portal-digitalshadows.com/api/,
      with the vendor media type application/vnd.polaris-v38+json as both Content-Type and Accept.
      An unauthenticated request returns 401 with {"code":"PS229","status":401,"message":"Failed to
      authenticate ... Please contact drpsupport@reliaquest.com"}. Keys are issued inside the portal;
      the reference documentation is customer-only.

notes: >-
  No OAuth 2.0 / OIDC surface is documented for either API and no discovery document is served
  (see well-known/reliaquest-well-known.yml). No scopes artifact is emitted: the GreyMatter API key
  inherits the creating user's role/permissions (accessGroup, role and permissions queries exist in
  the API) rather than declaring OAuth scopes.
