REST API
========
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.

API Key
-------
To use the POST methods, or *any* 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 ``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.
