note: >-
  Derived from the provider's own public Get Started page rather than from an
  OpenAPI document — SkyKick publishes no machine-readable contract. The page is
  served by the ConnectWise Developer Portal on SkyKick's own Azure API Management
  instance (skykick.developer.azure-api.net) and is the only substantive
  anonymously readable API documentation the provider still serves after the
  September 2024 ConnectWise acquisition retired skykick.com.
summary: >-
  Two credentials are required on every call. An Azure API Management subscription
  key identifies the calling application to the gateway, and an OAuth 2.0
  client-credentials bearer token identifies the partner. Both are issued from the
  Cloud Services partner portal and require an administrator to enable "Developer
  Access" on a user before any of it can be obtained.
schemes:
- id: apim_subscription_key

  name: Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key
  required: true
  description: >-
    Azure API Management subscription key. Retrieved from the Cloud Services
    portal under Admin > User Profile > Developer API Access, where each
    subscription (e.g. the Partner subscription) exposes a Show link that reveals
    the key. Sent on both the token request and every resource request.

  required: true
  description: >-
    OAuth 2.0 client credentials grant (RFC 6749 section 4.4). The token request
    is an application/x-www-form-urlencoded POST carrying grant_type=client_credentials
    and a scope, authenticated with HTTP Basic where the username is the ClientId
    and the password is the Secret. The resulting token is sent as
    "Authorization: Bearer <token>" on resource calls.

  steps:
  - Sign in to the Cloud Services portal with an Administrator account.

  note: >-
    There is no self-service signup. Credentials can only be minted by an
    administrator of an existing partner tenant, which is why this profile records
    the API as gated rather than public.
