title: pfSense REST API (pfSense-pkg-RESTAPI) Authentication API
description: 'Community-maintained REST and GraphQL API package for pfSense CE and
pfSense Plus that exposes 200+ endpoints under /api/v2 for firewall,
interface, service, user, and system management. Authentication supports
HTTP Basic, X-API-Key header, and JWT bearer tokens obtained from
POST /api/v2/auth/jwt.
Only a representative subset of the pfSense REST API surface
(auth, firewall aliases, firewall rules, diagnostics) is modeled here.
See the documentation linked under externalDocs for the full catalog.
