Table name has changed since instructions were written. There's probably a better way to describe how to get the internal room ID than I've attempted here, so feel free to adjust as needed. (It may even be good to show an example of what an internal room ID looks like, e.g. `!nc93825:example.com`) ### Pull Request Checklist * [x] I have added Go unit tests or [Complement integration tests](https://github.com/matrix-org/complement) for this PR _or_ I have justified why this PR doesn't need tests * Doc-only change * [x] Pull request includes a [sign off below using a legally identifiable name](https://matrix-org.github.io/dendrite/development/contributing#sign-off) Signed-off-by: `Tim McCormack <cortex@brainonfire.net>` --------- Co-authored-by: Till <2353100+S7evinK@users.noreply.github.com>

# Supported admin APIs
|
|
|
|
Dendrite supports, at present, a very small number of endpoints that allow
|
|
admin users to perform administrative functions. Please note that there is no
|
|
API stability guarantee on these endpoints at present — they may change shape
|
|
without warning.
|
|
|
|
More endpoints will be added in the future.
|
|
|
|
Endpoints may be used directly through curl:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl --header "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" -X <POST|GET|PUT> <Endpoint URI> -d '<Request Body Contents>'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
An `access_token` can be obtained through most Element-based matrix clients by going to `Settings` -> `Help & About` -> `Advanced` -> `Access Token`.
|
|
Be aware that an `access_token` allows a client to perform actions as an user and should be kept **secret**.
|
|
|
|
The user must be an administrator in the `userapi_accounts` table in order to use these endpoints.
|
|
|
|
Existing user accounts can be set to administrative accounts by changing `account_type` to `3` in `userapi_accounts`
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
UPDATE userapi_accounts SET account_type = 3 WHERE localpart = '$localpart';
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Where `$localpart` is the username only (e.g. `alice`).
|
|
|
|
## GET `/_dendrite/admin/evacuateRoom/{roomID}`
|
|
|
|
This endpoint will instruct Dendrite to part all local users from the given `roomID`
|
|
in the URL. It may take some time to complete. A JSON body will be returned containing
|
|
the user IDs of all affected users.
|
|
|
|
If the room has an alias set (e.g. is published), the room's ID will not be visible in the URL, but it can
|
|
be found as the room's "internal ID" in Element Web (Settings -> Advanced)
|
|
|
|
## GET `/_dendrite/admin/evacuateUser/{userID}`
|
|
|
|
This endpoint will instruct Dendrite to part the given local `userID` in the URL from
|
|
all rooms which they are currently joined. A JSON body will be returned containing
|
|
the room IDs of all affected rooms.
|
|
|
|
## POST `/_dendrite/admin/resetPassword/{userID}`
|
|
|
|
Reset the password of a local user.
|
|
|
|
Request body format:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"password": "new_password_here"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## GET `/_dendrite/admin/fulltext/reindex`
|
|
|
|
This endpoint instructs Dendrite to reindex all searchable events (`m.room.message`, `m.room.topic` and `m.room.name`). An empty JSON body will be returned immediately.
|
|
Indexing is done in the background, the server logs every 1000 events (or below) when they are being indexed. Once reindexing is done, you'll see something along the lines `Indexed 69586 events in 53.68223182s` in your debug logs.
|
|
|
|
## POST `/_dendrite/admin/refreshDevices/{userID}`
|
|
|
|
This endpoint instructs Dendrite to immediately query `/devices/{userID}` on a federated server. An empty JSON body will be returned on success, updating all locally stored user devices/keys. This can be used to possibly resolve E2EE issues, where the remote user can't decrypt messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## POST `/_synapse/admin/v1/send_server_notice`
|
|
|
|
Request body format:
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"user_id": "@target_user:server_name",
|
|
"content": {
|
|
"msgtype": "m.text",
|
|
"body": "This is my message"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Send a server notice to a specific user. See the [Matrix Spec](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#server-notices) for additional details on server notice behaviour.
|
|
If successfully sent, the API will return the following response:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"event_id": "<event_id>"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## GET `/_synapse/admin/v1/register`
|
|
|
|
Shared secret registration — please see the [user creation page](createusers) for
|
|
guidance on configuring and using this endpoint.
|
|
|
|
## GET `/_matrix/client/v3/admin/whois/{userId}`
|
|
|
|
From the [Matrix Spec](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#get_matrixclientv3adminwhoisuserid).
|
|
Gets information about a particular user. `userId` is the full user ID (e.g. `@alice:domain.com`)
|
