Correct way to use Jellyfin API to restart the server - R4RaiN - 2024-02-29
What's the correct way to make an api request to restart the server ?
what I did :
curl -i -X POST -H "Authorization: CustomAuthentication 404ba4ecac5e46e4aa38fb2bac9656c1" http://ip:8096/system/restart
tried
curl -i -X POST -H "Authorization: CustomAuthentication 404ba4ecac5e46e4aa38fb2bac9656c1" http://ip:8096/api/system/restart
responses:
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

You're sending a wrong authorization header. See the documentation at https://gist.github.com/nielsvanvelzen/ea047d9028f676185832e51ffaf12a6f on how it works.
Also, keep in mind that the restart functionality in 10.8 does not work on most platforms. This will improve in 10.9 where all platforms support it.

Thanks , Received a 204 response but doesn't restarted as you stated. Hope It'll get fixed soon
