​
Use Case

The firmware installer reads this endpoint to get the cloudregisterurl value it needs to embed into the thermostat firmware image during flashing. The installer fetches /info, extracts cloudregisterurl, and writes it into the firmware configuration at flash time. The installer also uses ip, port, and ssl to construct the firmware’s network configuration.

Example

curl http://your-server:8000/info | jq .

GET /api/config
