sqlmap can be controlled through an HTTP REST API by using `sqlmapapi.py`. The API accepts and returns JSON. This is useful when sqlmap has to be integrated into another tool, service, user interface, automation pipeline or commercial product.
This interface has historically been referred to in sqlmap code and older documentation as the **REST-JSON API**. In this page, it is called the **REST API** to avoid confusion with the separate `JSON:API` specification.
The API server manages scan tasks. A client creates a task, sets sqlmap options, starts a scan, then retrieves status, logs, data and output files.
