Digi-Key
Digi-Key's api.digikey.com gateway runs a genuine OAuth2 flow: its authorization endpoint rejects requests missing a client_id, and resource endpoints additionally require a client-specific header, ruling out simple API-key auth. Access to product, ordering, and barcode data is free with per-product rate limits, and CORS is explicitly configured, echoing the request Origin on both live calls and OPTIONS preflights.
AuthenticationOAuthRequires an OAuth flow; expect app registration.
HTTPSSupportedTraffic is encrypted in transit.
