Federation API

This API allows a server administrator to manage Synapse's federation with other homeservers.

Note: This API is new, experimental and "subject to change".

List of destinations

This API gets the current destination retry timing info for all remote servers.

The list contains all the servers with which the server federates, regardless of whether an error occurred or not. If an error occurs, it may take up to 20 minutes for the error to be displayed here, as a complete retry must have failed.

The API is:

A standard request with no filtering:

GET /_synapse/admin/v1/federation/destinations

A response body like the following is returned:

{
   "destinations":[
      {
         "destination": "matrix.org",
         "retry_last_ts": 1557332397936,
         "retry_interval": 3000000,
         "failure_ts": 1557329397936,
         "last_successful_stream_ordering": null
      }
   ],
   "total": 1
}

To paginate, check for next_token and if present, call the endpoint again with from set to the value of next_token. This will return a new page.

If the endpoint does not return a next_token then there are no more destinations to paginate through.

Parameters

The following query parameters are available:

  • from - Offset in the returned list. Defaults to 0.
  • limit - Maximum amount of destinations to return. Defaults to 100.
  • order_by - The method in which to sort the returned list of destinations. Valid values are:
    • destination - Destinations are ordered alphabetically by remote server name. This is the default.
    • retry_last_ts - Destinations are ordered by time of last retry attempt in ms.
    • retry_interval - Destinations are ordered by how long until next retry in ms.
    • failure_ts - Destinations are ordered by when the server started failing in ms.
    • last_successful_stream_ordering - Destinations are ordered by the stream ordering of the most recent successfully-sent PDU.
  • dir - Direction of room order. Either f for forwards or b for backwards. Setting this value to b will reverse the above sort order. Defaults to f.

Caution: The database only has an index on the column destination. This means that if a different sort order is used, this can cause a large load on the database, especially for large environments.

Response

The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:

  • destinations - An array of objects, each containing information about a destination. Destination objects contain the following fields:
    • destination - string - Name of the remote server to federate.
    • retry_last_ts - integer - The last time Synapse tried and failed to reach the remote server, in ms. This is 0 if the last attempt to communicate with the remote server was successful.
    • retry_interval - integer - How long since the last time Synapse tried to reach the remote server before trying again, in ms. This is 0 if no further retrying occuring.
    • failure_ts - nullable integer - The first time Synapse tried and failed to reach the remote server, in ms. This is null if communication with the remote server has never failed.
    • last_successful_stream_ordering - nullable integer - The stream ordering of the most recent successfully-sent PDU to this destination, or null if this information has not been tracked yet.
  • next_token: string representing a positive integer - Indication for pagination. See above.
  • total - integer - Total number of destinations.

Destination Details API

This API gets the retry timing info for a specific remote server.

The API is:

GET /_synapse/admin/v1/federation/destinations/<destination>

A response body like the following is returned:

{
   "destination": "matrix.org",
   "retry_last_ts": 1557332397936,
   "retry_interval": 3000000,
   "failure_ts": 1557329397936,
   "last_successful_stream_ordering": null
}

Response

The response fields are the same like in the destinations array in List of destinations response.
