<p>For security reasons, we <a href="usage/administration/admin_api/reverse_proxy.html#synapse-administration-endpoints">recommend</a>
that the Admin API (<code>/_synapse/admin/...</code>) should be hidden from public view using a
reverse proxy. This means you should typically query the Admin API from a terminal on
the machine which runs Synapse.</p>
<p>Once you have your <code>access_token</code>, you will need to authenticate each request to an Admin API endpoint by
providing the token as either a query parameter or a request header. To add it as a request header in cURL:</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">curl --header &quot;Authorization: Bearer &lt;access_token&gt;&quot; &lt;the_rest_of_your_API_request&gt;
</code></pre>
<p>For example, suppose we want to
<a href="usage/administration/admin_api/user_admin_api.html#query-user-account">query the account</a> of the user
<code>@foo:bar.com</code>. We need an admin access token (e.g.
<code>syt_AjfVef2_L33JNpafeif_0feKJfeaf0CQpoZk</code>), and we need to know which port
Synapse's <a href="usage/administration/admin_api/config_documentation.html#listeners"><code>client</code> listener</a> is listening
on (e.g. <code>8008</code>). Then we can use the following command to request the account
information from the Admin API.</p>
<pre><code class="language-sh">curl --header &quot;Authorization: Bearer syt_AjfVef2_L33JNpafeif_0feKJfeaf0CQpoZk&quot; -X GET http://127.0.0.1:8008/_synapse/admin/v2/users/@foo:bar.com
