Paths are appended to the server URL. **Business key** (`tyms_sk_...`): all routes except partner distributor routes and OAuth authorization steps that document their own auth. **Partner key** (`adam_partner_sk_...` or equivalent): `POST /register-business`, `GET /referred-businesses`, billing status, and seat/credit grants on referred businesses. **OAuth**: integration apps use `tyms_pk_...` / `tyms_sk_...` plus user Bearer tokens — see the OAuth guide. Financial reports match what you see in the Tyms app. AI create endpoints accept optional attachment objects (`name`, `file`, `type`) — see the Attachments page in this docs site. servers: - url: https://staging-api.usetyms.com/v1/adam description: Sandbox (pre-production).
