!!! note

If you need an API which has not yet been implemented, don't hesitate to
[contact us](../contact.html).

[TOC]

Summary

iRedAdmin-Pro RESTful API will return message in JSON format.

  • If operation succeed, iRedAdmin-Pro returns JSON data: {'success': true}.
  • If operation failed, iRedAdmin-Pro returns JSON data: {'success': false, 'msg': '<error_reason>'}.

Requirements

  • At least iRedAdmin-Pro-SQL-2.4.0 or iRedAdmin-Pro-LDAP-2.6.0. Earlier releases didn't offer RESTful API.

Enable RESTful API

RESTful API is disabled by default, to enable it, please add setting below in iRedAdmin-Pro config file settings.py:

ENABLE_RESTFUL_API = True

To restrict API access to few IP addresses, please also add settings below in iRedAdmin-Pro config file:

# Enable restriction
RESTRICT_API_ACCESS = True

# List all IP addresses of allowed client for API access.
RESTFUL_API_CLIENTS = ['172.16.244.1', ...]

Restarting Apache or uwsgi (if you're running Nginx) is required.
