API Reference (OpenAPI / Swagger)

OmniWeb's controller (central backend) exposes a single REST API behind the same JWT login that governs the rest of the portal. That API is self-documenting:

  • Swagger UI: /api/docs — browse every endpoint, expand a route to see its method, path/query parameters, whether it needs a token, and its summary. Click Authorize, paste a bearer JWT, and you can try calls live against the running instance.
  • OpenAPI 3 spec: /api/openapi.json — the machine readable document, for importing into Postman/Insomnia or generating clients.

Swagger UI at /api/docs — every controller endpoint, grouped by area, with Authorize for live calls

What's documented

The spec is generated at runtime by introspecting the live route map, so it always matches the endpoints the running instance actually serves — there is no hand-maintained file to drift. For every route it captures:

  • the HTTP method and path (with path/query parameters),
  • a summary and description taken from the code,
  • whether a bearer JWT is required, and
  • where applicable, the per-element view/control permission the route enforces.

Endpoints are grouped by area (Auth, Admin, SIM Bank, Remote SIM, APDU, Test Devices, IR.38, RAEX, TAP, and so on) so you can find a feature's routes quickly.

Getting a token

Most endpoints require a bearer token. Obtain one with POST /api/auth/login (the same credentials you use for the portal), then send it as Authorization: Bearer <token>. In Swagger UI, use the Authorize button so every "Try it out" call carries the token automatically.

Scope

This documents the controller API only. The device-agent that runs at remote sites is not part of this API: it dials out to the controller over a WebSocket and exposes no inbound REST endpoints, so there is nothing to call on it directly.
