The `api` integration exposes a RESTful API and allows one to interact with a Home Assistant instance that is running headless. This integration depends on the [`http` integration](/components/http/).
|
|
|
|
<div class='note warning'>
|
|
|
|
It is HIGHLY recommended that you set the `api_password`, especially if you are planning to expose your installation to the internet.
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
api:
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For details to use the API, please refer to the [REST API](/developers/rest_api/) or the [Python REST API documentation](/developers/python_api/) in the "Developer" section.
