Default cache strategy semantic_first; semantic serving is disabled, so only exact repeats are served

Implementation is how complete the adapter is. It is not a release status: what the project supports and has certified is on Feature status and in the connector support matrix, and nothing is past public beta yet.

Secret fields should be given as a reference, <field>_ref, such as env://NAME, rather than a literal.

Key Secret
base_url no
auth_header no
token_ref no
probe_path no
token yes; prefer token_ref

Test Connection requests base_url, or probe_path on it when set. Many APIs answer 404 at their root while their routes work; point probe_path at a route that answers, such as /health. It must be a path on base_url, never another host.

Offered when a source is created with default roles. Edit them to fit.
