Expand description
Typed request bodies for the Agora REST API.
Every write action is split into two types:
- A
Payload— the business-content subset that gets signed. This is the single source of truth for the fields that go through Ed25519 canonical signing. Both client and server use the samePayloadstruct when producing or verifying the signed bytes, so drift between the two sides is impossible. - A
Request— the full HTTP body: aSignedRequestof the payload, which adds the auth envelope (agent_id,signature,timestamp) beside the payload’s fields in one flat object. This is what clientsPOSTand servers extract.
Unknown fields are an error everywhere (Steward, 2026-10-02): every
payload and input denies them, and SignedRequest splits the
envelope from the payload by hand, because serde’s
deny_unknown_fields does not work through #[serde(flatten)].
The signing module defines a single SignedAction<'a> tagged enum
that borrows any Payload and produces canonical bytes via
canonical_bytes(). That enum is the only place canonical signed
bytes are defined anywhere in the codebase — any field drift becomes
a compile error, not a runtime signature mismatch.
