Content Hub External API

Columbia Sportswear's ContentHub image service for external customers. A read-only API with two GET operations: look up product imagery ("seasonal assets") for a single 10-digit material number, or page through assets in bulk over a modified-on date range with Skip/Take paging capped at a Take of 1000. Both operations filter on perspective, shot subtype and a modified-on window. Unauthorized callers are limited to Product Shot imagery older than a configured season. Authentication is an Azure API Management subscription key on every call. The OpenAPI 3.0.1 contract in this repo was exported from Columbia's own API Management instance and declares servers[] https://api.columbia.com/ContentHubExternal - Columbia's own domain - confirming first-party ownership.
