Get server settings

Fetch global settings for a Zulip server.

GET https://we.comake.online/api/v1/server_settings

Note: this endpoint does not require any authentication at all, and you can use it to check:

  • If this is a Zulip server, and if so, what version of Zulip it's running.
  • What a Zulip client (e.g. a mobile app or zulip-terminal) needs to know in order to display a login prompt for the server (e.g. what authentication methods are available).

Usage examples

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import zulip

# Pass the path to your zuliprc file here.
client = zulip.Client(config_file="~/zuliprc")

# Fetch the settings for this server
result = client.get_server_settings()
print(result)

curl -sSX GET -G https://we.comake.online/api/v1/server_settings \
    -u BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS:BOT_API_KEY

Parameters

This endpoint does not accept any parameters.

Response

Return values

  • authentication_methods: object Each key-value pair in the object indicates whether the authentication method is enabled on this server.

    Changes: Deprecated in Zulip 2.1, in favor of the more expressive external_authentication_methods.

    • password: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using password.

    • dev: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using development API key.

    • email: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using email.

    • ldap: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using LDAP.

    • remoteuser: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using REMOTE_USER.

    • github: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using their GitHub account.

    • azuread: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using their Azure Active Directory account.

    • gitlab: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using their GitLab account.

    • apple: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using their Apple account.

    • google: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using their Google account.

    • saml: boolean Whether the user can authenticate using SAML.

  • external_authentication_methods: (object)[] A list of dictionaries describing the available external authentication methods (E.g. Google, GitHub, or SAML) enabled for this organization.

    The list is sorted in the order in which these authentication methods should be displayed.

    Changes: New in Zulip 2.1.

    • name: string A unique, table, machine-readable name for the authentication method, intended to be used by clients with special behavior for specific authentication methods to correctly identify the method.

    • display_name: string Display name of the authentication method, to be used in all buttons for the authentication method.

    • display_icon: string URL for an image to be displayed as an icon in all buttons for the external authentication method.

      When null, no icon should be displayed.

    • login_url: string URL to be used to initiate authentication using this method.

    • signup_url: string URL to be used to initiate account registration using this method.

  • zulip_version: string The version of Zulip running in the server.

  • zulip_feature_level: integer An integer indicating what features are available on the server. The feature level increases monotonically; a value of N means the server supports all API features introduced before feature level N. This is designed to provide a simple way for client apps to decide whether the server supports a given feature or API change. See the changelog for details on what each feature level means.

    Changes. New in Zulip 3.0. We recommend using an implied value of 0 for Zulip servers that do not send this field.

  • push_notifications_enabled: boolean Whether mobile/push notifications are enabled.

  • is_incompatible: boolean Whether the Zulip client that has sent a request to this endpoint is deemed incompatible with the server.

  • email_auth_enabled: boolean Setting for allowing users authenticate with an email-password combination.

  • require_email_format_usernames: boolean Whether all valid usernames for authentication to this organization will be email addresses. This is important for clients to know whether to do client side validation of email address format in a login prompt.

    This value will be false if the server has LDAP authentication enabled with a username and password combination.

  • realm_uri: string The organization's canonical URL.

  • realm_name: string The organization's name (for display purposes).

  • realm_icon: string The URL for the organization's logo formatted as a square image, used for identifying the organization in small locations in the mobile and desktop apps.

  • realm_description: string HTML description of the organization, as configured by the organization profile.

Please note that not all of these attributes are guaranteed to appear in a response, for two reasons:

  • This endpoint has evolved over time, so responses from older Zulip servers might be missing some keys (in which case a client should assume the appropriate default).
  • If a /server_settings request is made to the root domain of a multi-subdomain server, like the root domain of zulip.com, the settings that are realm-specific are not known and thus not provided.
