Version API
===========
This API returns the running Synapse version and the Python version
on which Synapse is being run. This is useful when a Synapse instance
is behind a proxy that does not forward the 'Server' header (which also
contains Synapse version information).
The api is::
GET /_matrix/client/r0/admin/server_version
including an ``access_token`` of a server admin.
It returns a JSON body like the following:
.. code:: json
{
"server_version": "0.99.2rc1 (b=develop, abcdef123)",
"python_version": "3.6.8"
}
