  title: PuppetVendors Merchant API V2
  version: 2.0.0
  description: >-
    The endpoints reachable with a merchant API key (`mk_live_…`), minted from
    Settings → API Access in the PuppetVendors admin. A merchant key administers
    users and vendors, and renews its own token. Everything else in the V2 API,
    including orders, products, payouts, fulfillments and documents, stays on
    the v1 API token and is refused here with a 403. Keys are revealed once at
    creation; rotating one leaves the previous key working for a 24 hour grace
    window.
