# Authorize Methods

`POST /authorize/methods`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.traversal.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.traversal.com/authorize/methods`
- Auth: none declared

Preserve legacy discovery until authoritative routing is enabled.

Unknown emails, ambiguous organization matches, and orgs without a
provider identifier return the same empty 200 response so callers
cannot enumerate accounts from status codes or error details.

  - `email` string, required
  - `invite_code` string, nullable

## Response `200`

  - `organization` string, nullable
  - `auth_provider` string, nullable
  - `org_identifier` string, nullable
  - `auth0_id` string, nullable
  - `methods` APIApiSchemaAuthAuthenticationMethod[], required
    - `id` string, required
    - `name` string, required
  - `server_authoritative` boolean, nullable
