Admin APIs
|
|
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This directory includes documentation for the various synapse specific admin
|
|
|
|
APIs available.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Only users that are server admins can use these APIs. A user can be marked as a
|
|
|
|
server admin by updating the database directly, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``UPDATE users SET admin = 1 WHERE name = '@foo:bar.com'``
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Restarting may be required for the changes to register.

Using an admin access_token
|
|
|
|
###########################
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many of the API calls listed in the documentation here will require to include an admin `access_token`.
|
|
|
|
Finding your user's `access_token` is client-dependent, but will usually be shown in the client's settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once you have your `access_token`, to include it in a request, the best option is to add the token to a request header:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``curl --header "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" <the_rest_of_your_API_request>``
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
