Cognite Data products API

Data products are governed, ready-for-consumption data assets derived from data domains, following data mesh principles. **Key characteristics:** - **Clear ownership**: Defined data product owners with explicit access roles and accountability - **Rich metadata**: Comprehensive data modeling views, usage terms, access permissions, and descriptivedocumentation - **Self-service consumption**: Discoverable and well-documented for autonomous data consumer access - **Version management**: Immutable data modeling view versions with governed schemas and updatablemetadata Data products act as a governance layer around data modeling, establishing trust and reliabilityfor business decisions through clear ownership, comprehensive metadata, and standardized access patterns. **Space ownership**: A data product owns a schema space. The data modeling views that the data productgoverns live in that schema space. The schema space is exclusively owned by the data product.

Authentication & Security 5

Cognite Data products API declares 5 security schemes for authenticating requests. It accepts HTTP bearer tokens (OpenID Connect or OAuth2 token) (oidc-token). It supports OAuth 2.0 (oauth2-client-credentials) using the clientCredentials flow, exposing 1 scope. It supports OAuth 2.0 (oauth2-auth-code) using the authorizationCode flow, exposing 1 scope. It supports OAuth 2.0 (oauth2-open-industrial-data) using the clientCredentials flow, exposing 1 scope. It supports OpenID Connect (org-oidc-token) discovered at https://auth.cognite.com/.well-known/openid-configuration. By default, every request must be authenticated.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Cognite Data products API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
