  title: Apache Tomcat Manager Text applications Server API
  description: The Apache Tomcat Manager web application exposes a text-based HTTP API for deploying, undeploying, listing, starting, stopping, and inspecting web applications running inside a Tomcat server. All commands require HTTP Basic authentication by a user holding the `manager-script` role. Responses are plain text where the first line begins with `OK -` on success or `FAIL -` on error.
