Question: How is authorization handled?

Response: We use public-private keys and signed headers to control authentication and determine caller's authorization for requested action.

Authentication for Reads

Question: Are reads controlled by authentication? Some pathways have intellectual privacy issues that restrict access to content.

Response: Reads are open access. We understand that it could be desirable to control reads as well, but that is not in place at this time and is not currently planned.
