## Overview

This repository is a collection of OpenAPI YAML definitions for the Rocket.Chat REST API, not an API implementation. Developers use the definitions to explore endpoint capabilities across the documented domains. The README identifies those domains, but no source excerpts show runtime calls or relationships between them, so the graph treats each definition as a separate document and does not infer an execution flow.

Main entry points: [`authentication.yaml`](https://github.com/rocketchat/rocket.chat-open-api/blob/main/authentication.yaml) (Authentication), [`user-management.yaml`](https://github.com/rocketchat/rocket.chat-open-api/blob/main/user-management.yaml) (User management), [`rooms.yaml`](https://github.com/rocketchat/rocket.chat-open-api/blob/main/rooms.yaml) (Rooms), [`messaging.yaml`](https://github.com/rocketchat/rocket.chat-open-api/blob/main/messaging.yaml) (Messaging)
