📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

• Updated local Antora playbook to use cloud-docs branch DOC-1618 instead of main.
• Added a new cluster property entry: schema_registry_enable_authorization, including description, defaults, licensing note, restart behavior, and tag wrappers for snippet extraction.
• No changes to exported code or executable logic; documentation and build configuration only.

Assessment against linked issues: Out-of-scope changes

Code Change	Explanation
Switch cloud-docs source branch to DOC-1618 in local-antora-playbook.yml (local-antora-playbook.yml)	Not referenced in DOC-1620; appears to be a local build config change unrelated to tagging the SR AuthZ property. Unclear necessity for this specific issue.

5676-5694: Fix schema_registry_enable_authorization docs: correct prop name, add license banner & related props

Update modules/reference/pages/properties/cluster-properties.adoc (around lines 5676–5694):

• Add the enterprise-license include so this flag shows the banner consistently.
• Change the property reference from

  `schema_registry_api.authn_method`

  to

  `schema_registry_api[].authentication_method`

  to match the kafka_api[].authentication_method convention.
• Add a Related properties block for discoverability.

Suggested patch:

 // tag::schema_registry_enable_authorization[]
 === schema_registry_enable_authorization
 
+ifndef::env-cloud[]
+include::reference:partial$enterprise-licensed-property.adoc[]
+endif::[]

 // end::schema_registry_enable_authorization[]

Please verify that the xref targets http_authentication and superusers resolve correctly, and confirm in practice that no restart is required for this change.
