+Pioneer Study
+=============
+
+The `pioneer-study` ping is the main transport used by the Pioneer components.
+
+-------
+Payload
+-------
+
+It is made up of a clear text payload and an encrypted data payload, following the structure described below.
+
+Structure:
+
+.. code-block:: js
+
+ "payload": {
+ "encryptedData": "<encrypted token>",
+ "schemaVersion": 1,
+ "schemaName": "debug",
+ "schemaNamespace": "<namespace>",
+ "encryptionKeyId": "<key id>",
+ "pioneerId": "<UUID>",
+ "studyName": "pioneer-v2-example"
+ }
+
+See also the `JSON schemas <https://github.com/mozilla-services/mozilla-pipeline-schemas/tree/master/schemas/pioneer-debug>`_.
+
+encryptedData
+ The encrypted data sent using the Pioneer platform.
+
+schemaVersion
+ The payload format version.
+
+schemaName
+ The name of the schema of the encrypted data.
+
+schemaNamespace
+ The namespace used to segregate data on the pipeline.
+
+encryptionKeyId
+ The id of the key used to encrypt the data. If `discarded` is used, then the `encryptedData` will be ignored and not decoded (only possible for `deletion-request` and `pioneer-enrollment` schemas).
+
+pioneerId
+ The id of the pioneer client.
+
+studyName (optional)
+ The id of the study for which the data is being collected.
+
+------------------------
+Special Pioneer Payloads
+------------------------
+
+This ping has two special Pioneer payload configurations, indicated by the different `schemaName`: `deletion-request` and `pioneer-enrollemnt`.
+
+The `deletion-request` is sent when a user opts out from a Pioneer study: it contains the `pioneerId` and the `studyName`.
+
+The `pioneer-enrollment` is sent when a user opts into the Pioneer program: in this case it reports `schemaNamespace: "pioneer-meta"` and will have no `studyName`. It is also sent when enrolling into a study, in which case it reports the same namespace as the `deletion-request` (i.e. the id the study making the request) and the `pioneer-enrollment` schema name.
