# Changelog All notable changes to ScadaBridge are documented in this file. The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/). ## [Unreleased] ### Changed — BREAKING: inbound API authentication Inbound API authentication has migrated off the SQL Server `X-API-Key` scheme and onto the shared `ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.ApiKeys` library. - **Credential format.** The inbound `POST /api/{methodName}` endpoint now authenticates an `Authorization: Bearer sbk__` token instead of the raw `X-API-Key: ` header. The secret is verified with a peppered, constant-time HMAC compare inside the shared library verifier. - **Storage.** Inbound API keys now live in the shared `ZB.MOM.WW.Auth.ApiKeys` SQLite store, not the SQL Server configuration database. The deterministic-HMAC `ApiKey` table is gone. - **Authorization model.** A key's allowed methods are now its per-key **scopes** (scope string == method name, ordinal/case-sensitive). The previous `ApiMethod.ApprovedApiKeyIds` CSV that linked methods to key IDs has been removed. - **Peppering.** Keys are peppered per environment via `ScadaBridge:InboundApi:ApiKeyPepper` (≥ 16 characters, **different per environment**, kept secret). The same configuration key now backs the library verifier's pepper secret. > **BREAKING — all existing inbound API keys are INVALIDATED and must be re-issued.** > Old `X-API-Key` credentials and their stored HMAC hashes are not migrated and are > not recoverable; the `ApiKeys` table is dropped. Operators must re-issue every > inbound key as an `sbk_…` token and update every API client. See the runbook: > [`docs/operations/inbound-api-key-reissue.md`](docs/operations/inbound-api-key-reissue.md). ### Removed - The SQL Server `ApiKey` entity (`ZB.MOM.WW.ScadaBridge.Commons.Entities.InboundApi.ApiKey`), its EF Core mapping, and its `IInboundApiRepository` key methods (`GetApiKeyByIdAsync`, `GetAllApiKeysAsync`, `GetApiKeyByValueAsync`, `AddApiKeyAsync`, `UpdateApiKeyAsync`, `DeleteApiKeyAsync`, `GetApprovedKeysForMethodAsync`). - The `ApiMethod.ApprovedApiKeyIds` property, its EF mapping, and the CSV parse/serialize helpers. - The legacy hashing code: `ApiKeyHasher` / `IApiKeyHasher` and the in-repo inbound `ApiKeyValidator` (superseded by the shared `IApiKeyVerifier`), plus their DI registrations and tests. ### Migrations - `RetireInboundApiKeyStore` — drops the `ApiKeys` table and the `ApiMethods.ApprovedApiKeyIds` column. `Down` recreates both, but **dropped keys are not recoverable**: rolling the migration back does not restore credentials. Rollback means reverting the deployment, then re-issuing keys.
