The work

Note that it might be easier to accomplish some of these tasks by tackling https://github.com/camunda/developer-experience/issues/38 first.

### Tasks
- [ ] #4117 
- [ ] https://github.com/camunda/camunda-docs/issues/3715
- [ ] Update all OpenAPI specs to include a self-managed server URL and a SaaS URL option, and regenerate docs, across all REST APIs.

Background

Watch @xomiamoore and @NPDeehan struggle to call the Zeebe REST API using our docs here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlWKbDkkid4&t=1h22m12s

In this case, they were specifically trying to use the Zeebe REST API, but most of the challenges they ran into apply to all our REST APIs.

Where they got stuck:

Love this! Thanks for bringing it up during the team meeting, too. Given that this is an API experience topic, consider this a 🟢 from me to be a top priority.

☝️ Keep relevant EMs & PMs in mind as you make changes/adjustments. If you have UI feedback for how this info may (or may not!) be presented in Console, that's good for the PM to hear, too.

@pepopowitz Is there anything I can contribute here, or should I remove myself as an assignee and just provide a review? 😄

pepopowitz commented 2 months ago

I've removed you @christinaausley, and I'll tag you for reviews!
