OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Ceph Manager REST Auth User API
  description: 'REST API exposed by the Ceph Manager (ceph-mgr) dashboard module for

    managing and monitoring a Ceph cluster, including pools, OSDs, hosts,

    monitors, RGW, RBD, CephFS, users, and cluster configuration. Authentication

    uses a JWT obtained from POST /api/auth, supplied via the Authorization

    Bearer header. API versioning is negotiated via the Accept header using

    application/vnd.ceph.api.v{major}.{minor}+json. Generated as a best-effort

    spec from public Ceph documentation; the canonical OpenAPI is served by

    every Ceph Manager instance at /docs/api.json.
