Getting started

Applications communicate with Parallels RAS by sending HTTP or HTTPS requests. Parallels RAS answers with a JSON file in a response to every HTTP request.

All HTTP requests that you will use to retrieve and manage Parallels RAS resources have the following base structure:

https://<API-host>/api/<URI>

The parameters in the above URL are:

• <API-host> is the IP address or FQDN of the server on which the RAS Web Administration Service is installed.
• <URI> is a path to a REST resource that you would like to work with.
