RPC Reference

Every RPC method exposed through the local API. Use this page as the main method index, then combine it with language-specific example pages.

Gateway Format

All RPC calls go to local POST /rpc. Requests require the same auth_token configured inside the EA in the Authorization header.

This is intentional. The local gateway should not answer every request on the machine. It should answer only the requests whose token matches the terminal instance that is currently online.

If you are not sure where that token comes from, read Auth Token first.

POST /rpc HTTP/1.1
Host: 127.0.0.1:6000
Authorization: Bearer <auth_token>
Content-Type: application/json
