# SeedPass REST API Reference
|
||
|
||
This guide covers how to start the SeedPass API, authenticate requests, and interact with the available endpoints.
|
||
|
||
## Starting the API
|
||
|
||
Run `seedpass api start` from your terminal. The command prints a one‑time token used for authentication:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
$ seedpass api start
|
||
API token: abcdef1234567890
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Keep this token secret. Every request must include it in the `Authorization` header using the `Bearer` scheme.
|
||
|
||
## Endpoints
|
||
|
||
- `GET /api/v1/entry?query=<text>` – Search entries matching a query.
|
||
- `GET /api/v1/entry/{id}` – Retrieve a single entry by its index.
|
||
- `GET /api/v1/config/{key}` – Return the value for a configuration key.
|
||
- `GET /api/v1/fingerprint` – List available seed fingerprints.
|
||
- `GET /api/v1/nostr/pubkey` – Fetch the Nostr public key for the active seed.
|
||
- `POST /api/v1/shutdown` – Stop the server gracefully.
|
||
|
||
## Example Requests
|
||
|
||
Send requests with the token in the header:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>" \
|
||
"http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/entry?query=email"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Enabling CORS
|
||
|
||
Cross‑origin requests are disabled by default. Set `SEEDPASS_CORS_ORIGINS` to a comma‑separated list of allowed origins before starting the API:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
SEEDPASS_CORS_ORIGINS=http://localhost:3000 seedpass api start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Browsers can then call the API from the specified origins, for example using JavaScript:
|
||
|
||
```javascript
|
||
fetch('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/entry?query=email', {
|
||
headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer <token>' }
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Without CORS enabled, only same‑origin or command‑line tools like `curl` can access the API.
