Incorrect descriptions are present on the docs for some roblox.com subdomains

Reproduction Steps
Visit the docs for the cdnproviders, contentstore or economycreatorstats API subdomains:

Expected Behavior
The header of the docs page should have the API subdomain’s name and a description that briefly explains what the endpoints on the subdomain are related to (for example, the Users API has the description “For direct Roblox user information.”)

Actual Behavior
The names and/or descriptions of these subdomains do not make sense.

  • cdnproviders has the description “Purpose of Api here.”
  • contentstore has the description “ApiSite to front the TemporaryStore for files before uploading to S3” (this does describe the API but is clearly meant to be internal-facing)
  • economycreatorstats has the name “Roblox.EconomyCreatorStats.Api” and the description “Roblox.EconomyCreatorStats.Api endpoints.”

These don’t look like endpoints that external systems are meant to use, so there isn’t necessarily anything to fix here.

The real solution is Roblox should make an API portal for all Open Cloud-enabled endpoints and onboard more endpoints on Open Cloud and properly document them there. These API sites are not discoverable for most users and do not seem intended for external use at all.
