API Interface

API interface configuration provides a set of APIs based on gRPC for remote invocation.

The interface can be enabled through the api configuration module. When the api configuration is enabled, Xray will create an outbound proxy automatically. All incoming API connections need to be manually routed to this outbound proxy through routing rule configuration.

Please refer to the related configuration in this section.

::: warning Most users do not need to use this API. Novices can ignore this item directly. :::

ApiObject

ApiObject corresponds to the api item in the configuration file.

{
  "api": {
    "tag": "api",
    "services": ["HandlerService", "LoggerService", "StatsService"]
  }
}

tag: string

Outbound proxy identifier.

services: [string]

List of enabled APIs, optional values can be found in Supported API List.

An api inbound can be added to the inbounds configuration.

"inbounds": [
  {
    "listen": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 10085,
    "protocol": "dokodemo-door",
    "settings": {
      "address": "127.0.0.1"
    },
    "tag": "api"
  }
]

Add routing rules for the api inbound in the routing configuration.

"routing": {
  "rules": [
    {
      "inboundTag": [
        "api"
      ],
      "outboundTag": "api",
      "type": "field"
    }
  ]
}
