# Tailscale API
|
|
|
|
The Tailscale API is a (mostly) RESTful API. Typically, both `POST` bodies and responses are JSON-encoded.
|
|
|
|
## Base URL
|
|
|
|
The base URL for the Tailscale API is `https://api.tailscale.com/api/v2/`.
|
|
|
|
Examples in this document may abbreviate this to `/api/v2/`.
|
|
|
|
## Authentication
|
|
|
|
Requests to the Tailscale API are authenticated with an API access token (sometimes called an API key).
|
|
Access tokens can be supplied as the username portion of HTTP Basic authentication (leave the password blank) or as an OAuth Bearer token:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# passing token with basic auth
|
|
curl -u "tskey-api-xxxxx:" https://api.tailscale.com/api/v2/...
|
|
|
|
# passing token as bearer token
|
|
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer tskey-api-xxxxx" https://api.tailscale.com/api/v2/...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Access tokens for individual users can be created and managed from the [**Keys**](https://login.tailscale.com/admin/settings/keys) page of the admin console.
|
|
These tokens will have the same permissions as the owning user, and can be set to expire in 1 to 90 days.
|
|
Access tokens are identifiable by the prefix `tskey-api-`.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, an OAuth client can be used to create short-lived access tokens with scoped permission.
|
|
OAuth clients don't expire, and can therefore be used to provide ongoing access to the API, creating access tokens as needed.
|
|
OAuth clients and the access tokens they create are not tied to an individual Tailscale user.
|
|
OAuth client secrets are identifiable by the prefix `tskey-client-`.
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Errors
|
|
|
|
The Tailscale API returns status codes consistent with [standard HTTP conventions](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status).
|
|
In addition to the status code, errors may include additional information in the response body:
|
|
|
|
```jsonc
|
|
{
|
|
"message": "additional error information"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Pagination
|
|
|
|
The Tailscale API does not currently support pagination. All results are returned at once.
|
