Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Two separate API keys needed: Delivery API (read) and Management API (write) — don't confuse them
- ⚠ No public MCP server — REST or GraphQL integration required
- ⚠ Delivery API uses CDN caching — cache invalidation may lag content updates by seconds
- ⚠ Management API has stricter rate limits than Delivery API
- ⚠ Content type codenames (slugs) are immutable once set — plan content model carefully
