Responses are available in JSON. + +## General notes + +### URLs + +The URLs for API endpoints start with the base URL followed by `/api/`, the +version supported by the client and the endpoint. For example: +`https://paste.xinu.at/api/v1.0.0/some/endpoint`. + +The version number follows the [semantic versioning guidelines](http://semver.org/). +The requested version number must be of the format `vX[.X[.X]]` with X being +a positive number. `v1` and `v1.0` will both be treated as `v1.0.0`. + +The most recent API version is `v2.1.0`. + +### Compatibility + +The API will evolve by adding and removing endpoints, parameters and keywords. +Unknown keywords should be treated gracefully by your application. + +Behavior not documented here should not be expected to be available and may be +changed without notice. + +### Unless stated otherwise ... + + +* ... requests should be sent via POST. +* ... endpoints expect an apikey with access level `apikey` to be sent with the request. +* ... requests should not be assumed to be atomic (i.e. data may be changed on the server despite an error being returned). + + +* ... timestamps are returned as UNIX timestamps (seconds). +* ... sizes are returned in bytes. +* ... values are specific to the user owning the apikey (e.g. the `total_size` field of file/history). + + +* ... errors will generate a response with `status=error`. +* ... error messages may differ from those listed in the tables. +* ... errors listed are only the most common ones (i.e. the lists are non-exhaustive). + +### Access levels + +An api key can have one of the following access levels.
