.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Syncthing exposes a REST interface over HTTP on the GUI port. This is used by
the GUI code (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 POST methods, or \fIany\fP method when authentication is enabled, an API
key must be set and used. The API key can be generated in the GUI, or set in the
\fBconfiguration/gui/apikey\fP element in the configuration file. To use an API
key, set the request header \fBX\-API\-Key\fP to the API key value. For example,
\fBcurl \-X POST \-H "X\-API\-Key: abc123" http://localhost:8384/rest/...\fP can be
used to invoke authenticated POST methods via \fBcurl\fP\&.
.SH SYSTEM ENDPOINTS
.SS GET /rest/system/config
.sp
Returns the current configuration.

.SS GET /rest/db/ignores
.sp
Takes one parameter, \fBfolder\fP, and returns the content of the
\fB\&.stignore\fP as the \fBignore\fP field. A second field, \fBexpanded\fP,
provides a list of strings which represent globbing patterns described by gobwas/glob (based on standard wildcards) that match the patterns in \fB\&.stignore\fP and all the includes. If appropriate these globs are prepended by the following modifiers: \fB!\fP to negate the glob, \fB(?i)\fP to do case insensitive matching and \fB(?d)\fP to enable removing of ignored files in an otherwise empty directory.

.SS POST /rest/db/ignores
.sp
Expects a format similar to the output of \fBGET\fP call, but only
containing the \fBignore\fP field (\fBexpanded\fP field should be omitted).
It takes one parameter, \fBfolder\fP, and either updates the content of
the \fB\&.stignore\fP echoing it back as a response, or returns an error.
.SS GET /rest/db/need
.sp
Takes one mandatory parameter, \fBfolder\fP, and returns lists of files which are
needed by this device in order for it to become in sync.
.sp
Furthermore takes an optional \fBpage\fP and \fBperpage\fP arguments for pagination.
Pagination happens, across the union of all needed files, that is \- across all
3 sections of the response.
For example, given the current need state is as follows:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP 1. 3
\fBprogress\fP has 15 items
.IP 2. 3
\fBqueued\fP has 3 items
.IP 3. 3
\fBrest\fP has 12 items
.UNINDENT
.sp
If you issue a query with \fBpage=1\fP and \fBperpage=10\fP, only the \fBprogress\fP
section in the response will have 10 items. If you issue a request query with
\fBpage=2\fP and \fBperpage=10\fP, \fBprogress\fP section will have the last 5 items,
\fBqueued\fP section will have all 3 items, and \fBrest\fP section will have first
2 items. If you issue a query for \fBpage=3\fP and \fBperpage=10\fP, you will only
have the last 10 items of the \fBrest\fP section.
.sp
In all these calls, \fBtotal\fP will be 30 to indicate the total number of
available items.

.SS POST /rest/db/scan
.sp
Request immediate rescan of a folder, or a specific path within a folder.
Takes the mandatory parameter \fIfolder\fP (folder ID), an optional parameter
\fBsub\fP (path relative to the folder root) and an optional parameter \fBnext\fP\&. If
\fBsub\fP is omitted or empty, the entire folder is scanned for changes, otherwise
only the given path (and children, in case it\(aqs a directory) is scanned. The
\fBnext\fP argument delays Syncthing\(aqs automated rescan interval for a given
amount of seconds.
.sp
Requesting scan of a path that no longer exists, but previously did, is
valid and will result in Syncthing noticing the deletion of the path in
question.
.sp
Returns status 200 and no content upon success, or status 500 and a
plain text error if an error occurred during scanning.
