note: >-
  SundaySky publishes no OpenAPI, so no securitySchemes could be derived
  mechanically (derive-authentication.py returned 0 profiles). This profile is
  read from the provider's own help-center documentation and confirmed against a
  live probe of the documented endpoint.

  api_key_in: []

  oauth2_supported: false
  oauth2_note: >-
    SundaySky states explicitly that OAuth is not supported for platform
    authentication. No scopes/ artifact is emitted for this provider.

  applies_to: https://apis.sundaysky.com/get-video/player-session/{sundayskyVideoId}
  description: >-
    The SundaySky Video API documents no Authorization header, API key, or token.
    The only credential in the documented request is the SundaySky Video ID
    embedded in the URL path — a capability URL. The endpoint is designed to be
    called from a page or server that already holds the video's embed snippet,
    and the account is resolved server-side from the video ID.
  documented_headers:
  - name: Content-Type
    required: true
    value: application/json
  - name: User-Agent
    required: false

      Optional. Lets SundaySky determine the viewer's operating system, device
      type, and browser type for correct rendering and analytics attribution.

      The article's "Getting the API URL" section lists Headers as Mandatory
      (Content-Type) and Optional (User-Agent) only — no auth header is documented.

    note: >-
      An unauthenticated POST reaches application logic rather than being
      rejected at an auth boundary — the response is a parameter-validation
      error naming accountId/programId/service/stage, not a 401/403. This
      confirms no bearer credential is required on this route.

- name: saml-sso
  surface: platform
  type: saml
  version: SAML 2.0
  description: >-
    Single Sign-On to the SundaySky platform (Studio, Video Page, Analytics) via
    the customer's own Identity Provider. SundaySky acts as the Service Provider
    and supplies a SAML XML metadata file containing its entity ID, public
    certificate, and login/redirect URL. The customer returns their IdP SSO URL
    and X.509 certificate, or an IdP metadata endpoint URL.
  provisioning: manual
  provisioning_note: >-
    SSO is used for authentication only; it does not provision users. All users
    must be created manually in the platform by an Account owner and assigned a
    user type before they can log in via SSO.
  availability: >-
    Plan-dependent — included on some plans, offered as a paid add-on on others.
    Enabled by SundaySky on request via the customer's Success Manager, not
    self-service.
