.TH "SYNCTHING-REST-API" "7" "Jul 08, 2023" "v1.23.6" "Syncthing"
2021-04-28 05:45:43 +00:00
.SH NAME
syncthing-rest-api \- REST API
2020-06-22 04:15:24 +00:00
.sp
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.
.SH API KEY
.sp
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 \fB configuration/gui/apikey\fP element in
the configuration file. To use an API key, set the request header
\fB X\- API\- Key\fP to the API key value. For example, \fB curl \- X POST \- H
"X\- API\- Key: abc123" http://localhost:8384/rest/...\fP can be used to invoke
with \fB curl\fP (add \fB \- k\fP flag when using HTTPS with a Syncthing generated or self signed certificate).
2022-10-10 04:24:03 +00:00
.sp
One exception to this requirement is \fB /rest/noauth\fP , you do not need an API
key to use those endpoints. This way third\- party devices and services can do
simple calls that don’ t expose sensitive information without having to expose
your API key.
2022-02-28 03:46:00 +00:00
.SH RESULT PAGINATION
.sp
Some \fI GET\fP endpoints take optional \fB page\fP and \fB perpage\fP arguments for
pagination. No more than \fB perpage\fP (defaults to 65536 if not given) result
entries are returned in an array. To access further entries, passing the
\fB page\fP parameter will advance in the results by that many pages. The actually
used parameters are always returned as attributes in the response object.
2020-06-22 04:15:24 +00:00
.SH SYSTEM ENDPOINTS
.SS GET /rest/system/browse
.sp
Returns a list of directories matching the path given by the optional parameter
2022-01-31 03:45:29 +00:00
\fB current\fP \& . The path can use \fI \% patterns as described in Go’ s filepath package\fP <\fB https://pkg.go.dev/path/filepath#Match\fP >\& . A ‘ *’ will always be appended
2020-06-22 04:15:24 +00:00
to the given path (e.g. \fB /tmp/\fP matches all its subdirectories). If the option
\fB current\fP is not given, filesystem root paths are returned.

New in version 1.12.0.

2022-02-28 03:46:00 +00:00
These endpoints facilitate access and modification of the configuration in a granular way. Config sent to the endpoints must be in the
same format as returned by the corresponding GET request. When posting the
2020-10-28 06:45:27 +00:00
configuration succeeds, the posted configuration is immediately applied, except
2021-06-02 05:45:38 +00:00
for changes that require a restart. Query \fI \% /rest/config/restart\- required\fP to check if
2020-10-28 06:45:27 +00:00
a restart is required.
.sp
For all endpoints supporting \fB PATCH\fP , it takes the existing config and
unmarshals the given JSON object on top of it. This means all child objects will
replace the existing objects, not extend them. For example for
2021-03-31 05:45:27 +00:00
\fB RawListenAddresses\fP in options, which is an array of strings, sending
\fB {RawListenAddresses: ["tcp://10.0.0.2"]}\fP will replace all existing listen
2020-10-28 06:45:27 +00:00
addresses.
.SS /rest/config

.SS /rest/config/folders, /rest/config/devices

\fB GET\fP returns all folders respectively devices as an array. \fB PUT\fP takes an array and
\fB POST\fP a single object. In both cases if a given folder/device already exists,
it’ s replaced, otherwise a new one is added.
.SS /rest/config/folders/*id*, /rest/config/devices/*id*
.sp
Put the desired folder\- respectively device\- ID in place of *id*. \fB GET\fP
2021-06-30 05:45:30 +00:00
returns the folder/device for the given ID, \fB PUT\fP replaces the entire config,
\fB PATCH\fP replaces only the given child objects and \fB DELETE\fP removes the
folder/device.
2022-02-28 03:46:00 +00:00
.SS /rest/config/defaults/folder, /rest/config/defaults/device
.sp
\fB GET\fP returns a template folder / device configuration object with all default
values, which only needs a unique ID to be applied. \fB PUT\fP replaces the
default config (omitted values are reset to the hard\- coded defaults), \fB PATCH\fP
replaces only the given child objects.
.SS /rest/config/defaults/ignores
.sp
New in version 1.19.0.
.sp
\fB GET\fP returns an object with a single \fB lines\fP attribute listing ignore
patterns to be used by default on folders, as an array of single\- line strings.
\fB PUT\fP replaces the default ignore patterns from an object of the same format.

To receive events, perform a HTTP GET of \fB /rest/events\fP \& .
.sp
2022-03-21 03:47:47 +00:00
To filter the event list, in effect creating a specific subscription for only
the desired event types, add a parameter \fB events=EventTypeA,EventTypeB,...\fP
where the event types are any of the event\- types\& . If no filter is
specified, all events \fI except\fP /events/localchangedetected and

The optional parameter \fB since=<lastSeenID>\fP sets the ID of the last event
you’ ve already seen. Syncthing returns a JSON encoded array of event objects,
starting at the event just after the one with this last seen ID. The default
value is 0, which returns all events. There is a limit to the number of events
buffered, so if the rate of events is high or the time between polling calls is
long some events might be missed. This can be detected by noting a discontinuity
in the event IDs.
.sp
If no new events are produced since \fB <lastSeenID>\fP , the HTTP call blocks and
waits for new events to happen before returning. By default it times out after
60 seconds returning an empty array. The time out duration can be customized
with the optional parameter \fB timeout=<seconds>\fP \& .
.sp
To receive only a limited number of events, add the \fB limit=<n>\fP parameter with a
suitable value for \fB n\fP and only the \fI last\fP \fB n\fP events will be returned. This
can be used to catch up with the latest event ID after a disconnection for
example: \fB /rest/events?since=0&limit=1\fP \& .
