 Kallithea has a simple JSON RPC API with a single schema for calling all API
 methods. Everything is available by sending JSON encoded http(s) requests to
 ``<your_server>/_admin/api``.
 API access for web views
 ------------------------
 API access can also be turned on for each web view in Kallithea that is
 decorated with the ``@LoginRequired`` decorator. Some views use
 ``@LoginRequired(api_access=True)`` and are always available. By default only
 RSS/Atom feed views are enabled. Other views are
 only available if they have been whitelisted. Edit the
 ``api_access_controllers_whitelist`` option in your .ini file and define views
 that should have API access enabled.
 For example, to enable API access to patch/diff, raw file and archive::
     api_access_controllers_whitelist =
         ChangesetController:changeset_patch,
         ChangesetController:changeset_raw,
         FilesController:raw,
         FilesController:archivefile
 After this change, a Kallithea view can be accessed without login by adding a
 GET parameter ``?api_key=<api_key>`` to the URL.
 Exposing raw diffs is a good way to integrate with
 third-party services like code review, or build farms that can download archives.
