Hi Paul > Hi Jeremy, where can I find the docs on the HTTP API?
Embarrassingly, there’s no decent documentation. The API is a subset of the TiddlyWeb API, which is documented here: https://tank.peermore.com/tanks/tiddlyweb/HTTP%20API <https://tank.peermore.com/tanks/tiddlyweb/HTTP%20API> Sadly, the best way to see the routes that are actually implemented is to look at the source: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/core/modules/commands/server.js#L158-L279 <https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/core/modules/commands/server.js#L158-L279> Or, you can use browser developer tools to observe network traffic as you interactively create and delete tiddlers.
