API /v1/ launched

We're launching our public API — a RESTful interface that lets you automate server provisioning, manage resources, and integrate RDP.sh directly into your own platform.

Getting Started

1. Generate an API Key

Navigate to Settings → Developer in your dashboard to create a new API key. Store it securely — you'll need it for all authenticated requests.

2. Authentication

Include your API key in the Authorization header of every request:

curl -X GET https://rdp.sh/v1/servers \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

3. Account Balance

Ensure your account has sufficient balance before creating servers. API requests will fail if your balance cannot cover the server's cost.

API Reference

Endpoint	Method	Description
`/v1/servers`	GET	List all servers
`/v1/servers`	POST	Create a new server
`/v1/servers/:id`	GET	Get server details
`/v1/servers/:id`	DELETE	Terminate a server
`/v1/account`	GET	Get account information
`/v1/balance`	GET	Check current balance

Example: Create a Server

curl -X POST https://rdp.sh/v1/servers \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "plan": "rdp-4gb",
    "location": "nl",
    "os": "windows-server-2022",
    "hostname": "my-server"
  }'

Status

This is the first stable release of our API. We're actively adding new endpoints based on user feedback.
