General

 

The Virola Web API is currently under development. We add information about implemented endpoints and requests as soon as they become available on the Virola Server.

 

The Virola Web API is manily used for:

Creating basic web-based Virola Client

All Web API requests are sent to a specific Virola Server using its host name and port number.

Most requests require authentication, either with a username and password or with a Web API token.
