API ring

A ring is an authentication boundary in the Credicorp API. The public ring is unauthenticated; the partner ring is OAuth-gated. The ring sets the auth, the limits and the data class.

Definition

Credicorp groups endpoints into rings by trust level. The public ring (/public/v1) is unauthenticated and returns published figures; the partner ring (/partner/v1) is token-gated and handles customer, decision and payment data. There are further internal rings the public docs do not cover.

In plain terms

A tier of the API grouped by how much trust it needs.

Why it matters here

Knowing which ring an endpoint is in tells you the auth, the rate limit and whether it touches sensitive data. See public vs partner.
