REST API & Webhooks
Documentation for BlueBubbles REST API & Webhooks
The REST API is currently only compatible with https Ngrok, Cloudflare, or Dynamic DNS connections with valid SSL certificates (when used in a Browser). We hope to add support for LocalTunnel in the near future. If you plan to use the REST API in a non-browser environment, it should work as expected.
The REST API requires server version 0.2.0 or greater, though we recommend you use the latest server as some methods in the documentation may not exist on older versions.
Webhooks require server version 1.0.0 or greater.

Most requests require authentication. Simply add the query parameter
guid (aliases include password & token) to the end of the request URL, with the server password as the value.For example:
https://some-url.ngrok.io/api/v1/ping?guid=passwordAll requests are returned with the basic format as below:
{
status: (int) Status Code,
message: (String) Status Message,
data: (Variable)
}
Or in the case of an error:
{

message: (String) Status Message,
error: {
type: (String) Error Type,
error: (String) Error Message
},
data?: (any)
}
