I think yes, assuming nobody grabbed an API key out of the Mazda app or something.
A huge project at my work got pushed back because a company we are working with decided to make the API public...
Isn't that a good thing?
It's a good thing it is getting changed, not a good thing it got pushed back farther because of them. Already been pushed back 4 months
Quite often these integrations just take the authentication token or cookie during OAuth or the normal login process.
Actions like that would be impossible with WEI.
