REST API¶
Syncthing exposes a REST interface over HTTP on the GUI port. This is used by the GUI (from Javascript) and can be used by other processes wishing to control Syncthing. In most cases both the input and output data is in JSON format. The interface is subject to change.
API Key¶
To use the REST API an API key must be set and used. The API key can be
generated in the GUI, or set in the configuration/gui/apikey element in
the configuration file. To use an API key, set the request header
X-API-Key to the API key value. For example, curl -X POST -H
"X-API-Key: abc123" http://localhost:8384/rest/... can be used to invoke
with curl (add -k flag when using HTTPS with a Syncthing generated or self signed certificate).
