-Synapse 1.37.0rc1 (2021-06-24)
-==============================
+Synapse 1.xx.0
+==============
 
-This release deprecates the current spam checker interface. See the [upgrade notes](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade#deprecation-of-the-current-spam-checker-interface) for more information on how to update to the new generic module interface.
-
-This release also removes support for fetching and renewing TLS certificates using the ACME v1 protocol, which has been fully decommissioned by Let's Encrypt on June 1st 2021. Admins previously using this feature should use a [reverse proxy](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/develop/reverse_proxy.html) to handle TLS termination, or use an external ACME client (such as [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/)) to retrieve a certificate and key and provide them to Synapse using the `tls_certificate_path` and `tls_private_key_path` configuration settings.

-
-This release includes a fix for a regression introduced in 1.32.0.
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 and 1.32.1 which caused `LoggingContext` errors in plugins. ([\#9857](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9857))
-
-
-Synapse 1.32.1 (2021-04-21)
-===========================
-
-This release fixes [a regression](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9853)
-in Synapse 1.32.0 that caused connected Prometheus instances to become unstable.
-
-However, as this release is still subject to the `LoggingContext` change in 1.32.0,
-it is recommended to remain on or downgrade to 1.31.0.
-
-Bugfixes
---------
-
-- Fix a regression in Synapse 1.32.0 which caused Synapse to report large numbers of Prometheus time series, potentially overwhelming Prometheus instances. ([\#9854](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9854))
-
-
-Synapse 1.32.0 (2021-04-20)
-===========================
-
-**Note:** This release introduces [a regression](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9853)
-that can overwhelm connected Prometheus instances. This issue was not present in
-1.32.0rc1. If affected, it is recommended to downgrade to 1.31.0 in the meantime, and
-follow [these instructions](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/9854#issuecomment-823472183)
-to clean up any excess writeahead logs.
-
-**Note:** This release also mistakenly included a change that may affected Synapse
-modules that import `synapse.logging.context.LoggingContext`, such as
-[synapse-s3-storage-provider](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse-s3-storage-provider).
-This will be fixed in a later Synapse version.
-
-**Note:** This release requires Python 3.6+ and Postgres 9.6+ or SQLite 3.22+.
-
-This release removes the deprecated `GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>` admin API. Please use the [v2 API](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#query-user-account) instead, which has improved capabilities.
-
-This release requires Application Services to use type `m.login.application_service` when registering users via the `/_matrix/client/r0/register` endpoint to comply with the spec. Please ensure your Application Services are up to date.
-
-If you are using the `packages.matrix.org` Debian repository for Synapse packages,
-note that we have recently updated the expiry date on the gpg signing key. If you see an
-error similar to `The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG F473DD4473365DE1`, you
-will need to get a fresh copy of the keys. You can do so with:
-
-```sh
-sudo wget -O /usr/share/keyrings/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg https://packages.matrix.org/debian/matrix-org-archive-keyring.gpg
-```

-
-Synapse 1.30.1 (2021-03-26)
-===========================
-
-This release is identical to Synapse 1.30.0, with the exception of explicitly
-setting a minimum version of Python's Cryptography library to ensure that users
-of Synapse are protected from the recent [OpenSSL security advisories](https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-announce/2021-March/000198.html),
-especially CVE-2021-3449.
-
-Note that Cryptography defaults to bundling its own statically linked copy of
-OpenSSL, which means that you may not be protected by your operating system's
-security updates.
-
-It's also worth noting that Cryptography no longer supports Python 3.5, so
-admins deploying to older environments may not be protected against this or
-future vulnerabilities. Synapse will be dropping support for Python 3.5 at the
-end of March.
-
-
-Updates to the Docker image
----------------------------
-
-- Ensure that the docker container has up to date versions of openssl. ([\#9697](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9697))
-
-
-Internal Changes
-----------------
-
-- Enforce that `cryptography` dependency is up to date to ensure it has the most recent openssl patches. ([\#9697](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9697))
-
-
-Synapse 1.30.0 (2021-03-22)
-===========================
-
-Note that this release deprecates the ability for appservices to
-call `POST /_matrix/client/r0/register`  without the body parameter `type`. Appservice
-developers should use a `type` value of `m.login.application_service` as
-per [the spec](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/application_service/r0.1.2#server-admin-style-permissions).
-In future releases, calling this endpoint with an access token - but without a `m.login.application_service`
-type - will fail.
-
-
-No significant changes.

+on the same domain.  This is particularly true of sharing a matrix webclient and
+server on the same domain.
 
-Whilst we make a reasonable effort to mitigate against XSS attacks (for
-instance, by using `CSP`_), a Matrix homeserver should not be hosted on a
-domain hosting other web applications. This especially applies to sharing

-information.
-
-.. _CSP: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/1021
-
-Ideally, the homeserver should not simply be on a different subdomain, but on
-a completely different `registered domain`_ (also known as top-level site or
-eTLD+1). This is because `some attacks`_ are still possible as long as the two
-applications share the same registered domain.

-
-To illustrate this with an example, if your Element Web or other sensitive web
-application is hosted on ``A.example1.com``, you should ideally host Synapse on
-``example2.com``. Some amount of protection is offered by hosting on
-``B.example1.com`` instead, so this is also acceptable in some scenarios.
-However, you should *not* host your Synapse on ``A.example1.com``.
-
-Note that all of the above refers exclusively to the domain used in Synapse's
-``public_baseurl`` setting. In particular, it has no bearing on the domain
-mentioned in MXIDs hosted on that server.

-Following this advice ensures that even if an XSS is found in Synapse, the

-# Running tests against a dockerised Synapse
-
-It's possible to run integration tests against Synapse
-using [Complement](https://github.com/matrix-org/complement). Complement is a Matrix Spec
-compliance test suite for homeservers, and supports any homeserver docker image configured
-to listen on ports 8008/8448. This document contains instructions for building Synapse
-docker images that can be run inside Complement for testing purposes.
-
-Note that running Synapse's unit tests from within the docker image is not supported.
-
-## Testing with SQLite and single-process Synapse
-
-> Note that `scripts-dev/complement.sh` is a script that will automatically build 
-> and run an SQLite-based, single-process of Synapse against Complement.
-
-The instructions below will set up Complement testing for a single-process, 
-SQLite-based Synapse deployment.
-
-Start by building the base Synapse docker image. If you wish to run tests with the latest
-release of Synapse, instead of your current checkout, you can skip this step. From the
-root of the repository:
-
-```sh
-docker build -t matrixdotorg/synapse -f docker/Dockerfile .
-```
-
-This will build an image with the tag `matrixdotorg/synapse`.
-
-Next, build the Synapse image for Complement. You will need a local checkout 
-of Complement. Change to the root of your Complement checkout and run:
-
-```sh
-docker build -t complement-synapse -f "dockerfiles/Synapse.Dockerfile" dockerfiles
-```
-
-This will build an image with the tag `complement-synapse`, which can be handed to 
-Complement for testing via the `COMPLEMENT_BASE_IMAGE` environment variable. Refer to 
-[Complement's documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/complement/#running) for 
-how to run the tests, as well as the various available command line flags.
-
-## Testing with PostgreSQL and single or multi-process Synapse
-
-The above docker image only supports running Synapse with SQLite and in a 
-single-process topology. The following instructions are used to build a Synapse image for 
-Complement that supports either single or multi-process topology with a PostgreSQL 
-database backend.
-
-As with the single-process image, build the base Synapse docker image. If you wish to run
-tests with the latest release of Synapse, instead of your current checkout, you can skip
-this step. From the root of the repository:
-
-```sh
-docker build -t matrixdotorg/synapse -f docker/Dockerfile .
-```
-
-This will build an image with the tag `matrixdotorg/synapse`.
-
-Next, we build a new image with worker support based on `matrixdotorg/synapse:latest`. 
-Again, from the root of the repository:
-
-```sh
-docker build -t matrixdotorg/synapse-workers -f docker/Dockerfile-workers .
-```
-
-This will build an image with the tag` matrixdotorg/synapse-workers`.
-
-It's worth noting at this point that this image is fully functional, and 
-can be used for testing against locally. See instructions for using the container 
-under
-[Running the Dockerfile-worker image standalone](#running-the-dockerfile-worker-image-standalone)
-below.
-
-Finally, build the Synapse image for Complement, which is based on
-`matrixdotorg/synapse-workers`. You will need a local checkout of Complement. Change to
-the root of your Complement checkout and run:
-
-```sh
-docker build -t matrixdotorg/complement-synapse-workers -f dockerfiles/SynapseWorkers.Dockerfile dockerfiles
-```
-
-This will build an image with the tag `complement-synapse`, which can be handed to
-Complement for testing via the `COMPLEMENT_BASE_IMAGE` environment variable. Refer to
-[Complement's documentation](https://github.com/matrix-org/complement/#running) for
-how to run the tests, as well as the various available command line flags.
-
-## Running the Dockerfile-worker image standalone
-
-For manual testing of a multi-process Synapse instance in Docker,
-[Dockerfile-workers](Dockerfile-workers) is a Dockerfile that will produce an image
-bundling all necessary components together for a workerised homeserver instance.
-
-This includes any desired Synapse worker processes, a nginx to route traffic accordingly,
-a redis for worker communication and a supervisord instance to start up and monitor all
-processes. You will need to provide your own postgres container to connect to, and TLS 
-is not handled by the container.
-
-Once you've built the image using the above instructions, you can run it. Be sure 
-you've set up a volume according to the [usual Synapse docker instructions](README.md).
-Then run something along the lines of:
-
-```
-docker run -d --name synapse \
-    --mount type=volume,src=synapse-data,dst=/data \
-    -p 8008:8008 \
-    -e SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME=my.matrix.host \
-    -e SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no \
-    -e POSTGRES_HOST=postgres \
-    -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres \
-    -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=somesecret \
-    -e SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES=synchrotron,media_repository,user_dir \
-    -e SYNAPSE_WORKERS_WRITE_LOGS_TO_DISK=1 \
-    matrixdotorg/synapse-workers
-```
-
-...substituting `POSTGRES*` variables for those that match a postgres host you have 
-available (usually a running postgres docker container).
-
-The `SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES` environment variable is a comma-separated list of workers to
-use when running the container. All possible worker names are defined by the keys of the
-`WORKERS_CONFIG` variable in [this script](configure_workers_and_start.py), which the
-Dockerfile makes use of to generate appropriate worker, nginx and supervisord config
-files.
-
-Sharding is supported for a subset of workers, in line with the
-[worker documentation](../docs/workers.md). To run multiple instances of a given worker
-type, simply specify the type multiple times in `SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES`
-(e.g `SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES=event_creator,event_creator...`).
-
-Otherwise, `SYNAPSE_WORKER_TYPES` can either be left empty or unset to spawn no workers
-(leaving only the main process). The container is configured to use redis-based worker
-mode.
-
-Logs for workers and the main process are logged to stdout and can be viewed with 
-standard `docker logs` tooling. Worker logs contain their worker name 
-after the timestamp.
-
-Setting `SYNAPSE_WORKERS_WRITE_LOGS_TO_DISK=1` will cause worker logs to be written to
-`<data_dir>/logs/<worker_name>.log`. Logs are kept for 1 week and rotate every day at 00:
-00, according to the container's clock. Logging for the main process must still be 
-configured by modifying the homeserver's log config in your Synapse data volume.

+# ACME
+
+From version 1.0 (June 2019) onwards, Synapse requires valid TLS
+certificates for communication between servers (by default on port
+`8448`) in addition to those that are client-facing (port `443`). To
+help homeserver admins fulfil this new requirement, Synapse v0.99.0
+introduced support for automatically provisioning certificates through 
+[Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) using the ACME protocol.
+
+## Deprecation of ACME v1
+
+In [March 2019](https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for-acmev1/88430),
+Let's Encrypt announced that they were deprecating version 1 of the ACME
+protocol, with the plan to disable the use of it for new accounts in
+November 2019, for new domains in June 2020, and for existing accounts and
+domains in June 2021.

+Synapse doesn't currently support version 2 of the ACME protocol, which
+means that:
+
+* for existing installs, Synapse's built-in ACME support will continue
+  to work until June 2021.
+* for new installs, this feature will not work at all.
+
+Either way, it is recommended to move from Synapse's ACME support
+feature to an external automated tool such as [certbot](https://github.com/certbot/certbot)
+(or browse [this list](https://letsencrypt.org/fr/docs/client-options/)
+for an alternative ACME client).
+
+It's also recommended to use a reverse proxy for the server-facing
+communications (more documentation about this can be found
+[here](/docs/reverse_proxy.md)) as well as the client-facing ones and
+have it serve the certificates.
+
+In case you can't do that and need Synapse to serve them itself, make
+sure to set the `tls_certificate_path` configuration setting to the path
+of the certificate (make sure to use the certificate containing the full
+certification chain, e.g. `fullchain.pem` if using certbot) and
+`tls_private_key_path` to the path of the matching private key. Note
+that in this case you will need to restart Synapse after each
+certificate renewal so that Synapse stops using the old certificate.
+
+If you still want to use Synapse's built-in ACME support, the rest of
+this document explains how to set it up. 
+
+## Initial setup 
+
+In the case that your `server_name` config variable is the same as
+the hostname that the client connects to, then the same certificate can be
+used between client and federation ports without issue.
+
+If your configuration file does not already have an `acme` section, you can
+generate an example config by running the `generate_config` executable. For
+example:
+
+```
+~/synapse/env3/bin/generate_config
+```
+
+You will need to provide Let's Encrypt (or another ACME provider) access to
+your Synapse ACME challenge responder on port 80, at the domain of your
+homeserver. This requires you to either change the port of the ACME listener
+provided by Synapse to a high port and reverse proxy to it, or use a tool
+like `authbind` to allow Synapse to listen on port 80 without root access.
+(Do not run Synapse with root permissions!) Detailed instructions are
+available under "ACME setup" below.
+
+If you already have certificates, you will need to back up or delete them
+(files `example.com.tls.crt` and `example.com.tls.key` in Synapse's root
+directory), Synapse's ACME implementation will not overwrite them.
+
+## ACME setup
+
+The main steps for enabling ACME support in short summary are:
+
+1. Allow Synapse to listen for incoming ACME challenges.
+1. Enable ACME support in `homeserver.yaml`.
+1. Move your old certificates (files `example.com.tls.crt` and `example.com.tls.key` out of the way if they currently exist at the paths specified in `homeserver.yaml`.
+1. Restart Synapse.
+
+Detailed instructions for each step are provided below.
+
+### Listening on port 80
+
+In order for Synapse to complete the ACME challenge to provision a
+certificate, it needs access to port 80. Typically listening on port 80 is
+only granted to applications running as root. There are thus two solutions to
+this problem.
+
+#### Using a reverse proxy
+
+A reverse proxy such as Apache or nginx allows a single process (the web
+server) to listen on port 80 and proxy traffic to the appropriate program
+running on your server. It is the recommended method for setting up ACME as
+it allows you to use your existing webserver while also allowing Synapse to
+provision certificates as needed.
+
+For nginx users, add the following line to your existing `server` block:
+
+```
+location /.well-known/acme-challenge {
+    proxy_pass http://localhost:8009;
+}
+```
+
+For Apache, add the following to your existing webserver config:
+
+```
+ProxyPass /.well-known/acme-challenge http://localhost:8009/.well-known/acme-challenge
+```
+
+Make sure to restart/reload your webserver after making changes.
+
+Now make the relevant changes in `homeserver.yaml` to enable ACME support:
+
+```
+acme:
+    enabled: true
+    port: 8009
+```
+
+#### Authbind
+
+`authbind` allows a program which does not run as root to bind to
+low-numbered ports in a controlled way. The setup is simpler, but requires a
+webserver not to already be running on port 80. **This includes every time
+Synapse renews a certificate**, which may be cumbersome if you usually run a
+web server on port 80. Nevertheless, if you're sure port 80 is not being used
+for any other purpose then all that is necessary is the following:
+
+Install `authbind`. For example, on Debian/Ubuntu:
+
+```
+sudo apt-get install authbind
+```
+
+Allow `authbind` to bind port 80:
+
+```
+sudo touch /etc/authbind/byport/80
+sudo chmod 777 /etc/authbind/byport/80
+```
+
+When Synapse is started, use the following syntax:
+
+```
+authbind --deep <synapse start command>
+```
+
+Make the relevant changes in `homeserver.yaml` to enable ACME support:
+
+```
+acme:
+    enabled: true
+```
+
+### (Re)starting synapse
+
+Ensure that the certificate paths specified in `homeserver.yaml` (`tls_certificate_path` and `tls_private_key_path`) do not currently point to any files. Synapse will not provision certificates if files exist, as it does not want to overwrite existing certificates.
+
+Finally, start/restart Synapse.

 # Synapse Documentation
 
-**The documentation is currently hosted [here](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse).**
-Please update any links to point to the new website instead.
+This directory contains documentation specific to the `synapse` homeserver.
 
-## About
+All matrix-generic documentation now lives in its own project, located at [matrix-org/matrix-doc](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc)
 
-This directory currently holds a series of markdown files documenting how to install, use
-and develop Synapse, the reference Matrix homeserver. The documentation is readable directly
-from this repository, but it is recommended to instead browse through the
-[website](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse) for easier discoverability.
-
-## Adding to the documentation
-
-Most of the documentation currently exists as top-level files, as when organising them into
-a structured website, these files were kept in place so that existing links would not break.
-The rest of the documentation is stored in folders, such as `setup`, `usage`, and `development`
-etc. **All new documentation files should be placed in structured folders.** For example:
-
-To create a new user-facing documentation page about a new Single Sign-On protocol named
-"MyCoolProtocol", one should create a new file with a relevant name, such as "my_cool_protocol.md".
-This file might fit into the documentation structure at:
-
-- Usage
-  - Configuration
-    - User Authentication
-      - Single Sign-On
-        - **My Cool Protocol**
-
-Given that, one would place the new file under
-`usage/configuration/user_authentication/single_sign_on/my_cool_protocol.md`.
-
-Note that the structure of the documentation (and thus the left sidebar on the website) is determined
-by the list in [SUMMARY.md](SUMMARY.md). The final thing to do when adding a new page is to add a new
-line linking to the new documentation file:
-
-```markdown
-- [My Cool Protocol](usage/configuration/user_authentication/single_sign_on/my_cool_protocol.md)
-```
-
-## Building the documentation
-
-The documentation is built with [mdbook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/), and the outline of the
-documentation is determined by the structure of [SUMMARY.md](SUMMARY.md).
-
-First, [get mdbook](https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook#installation). Then, **from the root of the repository**,
-build the documentation with:
-
-```sh
-mdbook build
-```
-
-The rendered contents will be outputted to a new `book/` directory at the root of the repository. You can
-browse the book by opening `book/index.html` in a web browser.
-
-You can also have mdbook host the docs on a local webserver with hot-reload functionality via:
-
-```sh
-mdbook serve
-```
-
-The URL at which the docs can be viewed at will be logged.
-
-## Configuration and theming
-
-The look and behaviour of the website is configured by the [book.toml](../book.toml) file
-at the root of the repository. See
-[mdbook's documentation on configuration](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/format/config.html)
-for available options.
-
-The site can be themed and additionally extended with extra UI and features. See
-[website_files/README.md](website_files/README.md) for details.

+APIs available.
 
+Authenticating as a server admin
+--------------------------------
+
+Many of the API calls in the admin api will require an `access_token` for a
+server admin. (Note that a server admin is distinct from a room admin.)
+
+A user can be marked as a server admin by updating the database directly, e.g.:
+
+.. code-block:: sql
+
+    UPDATE users SET admin = 1 WHERE name = '@foo:bar.com';
+
+A new server admin user can also be created using the
+``register_new_matrix_user`` script.
+
+Finding your user's `access_token` is client-dependent, but will usually be shown in the client's settings.
+
+Once you have your `access_token`, to include it in a request, the best option is to add the token to a request header:
+
+``curl --header "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" <the_rest_of_your_API_request>``
+
+Fore more details, please refer to the complete `matrix spec documentation <https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.5.0#using-access-tokens>`_.

+
+Deactivate Account
+==================
+
+This API deactivates an account. It removes active access tokens, resets the
+password, and deletes third-party IDs (to prevent the user requesting a
+password reset).
+
+It can also mark the user as GDPR-erased. This means messages sent by the
+user will still be visible by anyone that was in the room when these messages
+were sent, but hidden from users joining the room afterwards.
+
+The api is::
+
+    POST /_synapse/admin/v1/deactivate/<user_id>
+
+with a body of:
+
+.. code:: json

+    {
+        "erase": true
+    }
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a
+server admin: see `README.rst <README.rst>`_.
+
+The erase parameter is optional and defaults to ``false``.
+An empty body may be passed for backwards compatibility.
+
+The following actions are performed when deactivating an user:
+
+- Try to unpind 3PIDs from the identity server
+- Remove all 3PIDs from the homeserver
+- Delete all devices and E2EE keys
+- Delete all access tokens
+- Delete the password hash
+- Removal from all rooms the user is a member of
+- Remove the user from the user directory
+- Reject all pending invites
+- Remove all account validity information related to the user
+
+The following additional actions are performed during deactivation if ``erase``
+is set to ``true``:
+
+- Remove the user's display name
+- Remove the user's avatar URL
+- Mark the user as erased
+
+
+Reset password
+==============
+
+Changes the password of another user. This will automatically log the user out of all their devices.

+member are returned.
+
+**Parameters**
+
+The following parameters should be set in the URL:
+
+- ``user_id`` - fully qualified: for example, ``@user:server.com``.
+
+**Response**
+
+The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:

+- ``total`` - Number of rooms.
+
+
+List media of a user
+====================

+By default, the response is ordered by descending creation date and ascending media ID.
+The newest media is on top. You can change the order with parameters
+``order_by`` and ``dir``.
+
+The API is::
+
+  GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/media
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a
+server admin: see `README.rst <README.rst>`_.
+
+A response body like the following is returned:
+
+.. code:: json

+        {
+          "created_ts": 100400,
+          "last_access_ts": null,
+          "media_id": "qXhyRzulkwLsNHTbpHreuEgo",
+          "media_length": 67,
+          "media_type": "image/png",
+          "quarantined_by": null,
+          "safe_from_quarantine": false,
+          "upload_name": "test1.png"
+        },
+        {
+          "created_ts": 200400,
+          "last_access_ts": null,
+          "media_id": "FHfiSnzoINDatrXHQIXBtahw",
+          "media_length": 67,
+          "media_type": "image/png",
+          "quarantined_by": null,
+          "safe_from_quarantine": false,
+          "upload_name": "test2.png"
+        }
+      ],
+      "next_token": 3,
+      "total": 2
+    }
+
+To paginate, check for ``next_token`` and if present, call the endpoint again
+with ``from`` set to the value of ``next_token``. This will return a new page.
+
+If the endpoint does not return a ``next_token`` then there are no more
+reports to paginate through.
+
+**Parameters**
+
+The following parameters should be set in the URL:
+
+- ``user_id`` - string - fully qualified: for example, ``@user:server.com``.
+- ``limit``: string representing a positive integer - Is optional but is used for pagination,
+  denoting the maximum number of items to return in this call. Defaults to ``100``.
+- ``from``: string representing a positive integer - Is optional but used for pagination,
+  denoting the offset in the returned results. This should be treated as an opaque value and
+  not explicitly set to anything other than the return value of ``next_token`` from a previous call.
+  Defaults to ``0``.
+- ``order_by`` - The method by which to sort the returned list of media.
+  If the ordered field has duplicates, the second order is always by ascending ``media_id``,
+  which guarantees a stable ordering. Valid values are:
+
+  - ``media_id`` - Media are ordered alphabetically by ``media_id``.
+  - ``upload_name`` - Media are ordered alphabetically by name the media was uploaded with.
+  - ``created_ts`` - Media are ordered by when the content was uploaded in ms.
+    Smallest to largest. This is the default.
+  - ``last_access_ts`` - Media are ordered by when the content was last accessed in ms.
+    Smallest to largest.
+  - ``media_length`` - Media are ordered by length of the media in bytes.
+    Smallest to largest.
+  - ``media_type`` - Media are ordered alphabetically by MIME-type.
+  - ``quarantined_by`` - Media are ordered alphabetically by the user ID that
+    initiated the quarantine request for this media.
+  - ``safe_from_quarantine`` - Media are ordered by the status if this media is safe
+    from quarantining.
+
+- ``dir`` - Direction of media order. Either ``f`` for forwards or ``b`` for backwards.
+  Setting this value to ``b`` will reverse the above sort order. Defaults to ``f``.
+
+If neither ``order_by`` nor ``dir`` is set, the default order is newest media on top
+(corresponds to ``order_by`` = ``created_ts`` and ``dir`` = ``b``).
+
+Caution. The database only has indexes on the columns ``media_id``,
+``user_id`` and ``created_ts``. This means that if a different sort order is used
+(``upload_name``, ``last_access_ts``, ``media_length``, ``media_type``,
+``quarantined_by`` or ``safe_from_quarantine``), this can cause a large load on the
+database, especially for large environments.
+
+**Response**
+
+The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:
+
+- ``media`` - An array of objects, each containing information about a media.
+  Media objects contain the following fields:
+
+  - ``created_ts`` - integer - Timestamp when the content was uploaded in ms.
+  - ``last_access_ts`` - integer - Timestamp when the content was last accessed in ms.
+  - ``media_id`` - string - The id used to refer to the media.
+  - ``media_length`` - integer - Length of the media in bytes.
+  - ``media_type`` - string - The MIME-type of the media.
+  - ``quarantined_by`` - string - The user ID that initiated the quarantine request
+    for this media.
+
+  - ``safe_from_quarantine`` - bool - Status if this media is safe from quarantining.
+  - ``upload_name`` - string - The name the media was uploaded with.
+
+- ``next_token``: integer - Indication for pagination. See above.
+- ``total`` - integer - Total number of media.
+
+Login as a user
+===============
+
+Get an access token that can be used to authenticate as that user. Useful for
+when admins wish to do actions on behalf of a user.
+
+The API is::
+
+    POST /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/login
+    {}
+
+An optional ``valid_until_ms`` field can be specified in the request body as an
+integer timestamp that specifies when the token should expire. By default tokens
+do not expire.
+
+A response body like the following is returned:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    {
+        "access_token": "<opaque_access_token_string>"
+    }
+
+
+This API does *not* generate a new device for the user, and so will not appear
+their ``/devices`` list, and in general the target user should not be able to
+tell they have been logged in as.
+
+To expire the token call the standard ``/logout`` API with the token.
+
+Note: The token will expire if the *admin* user calls ``/logout/all`` from any
+of their devices, but the token will *not* expire if the target user does the
+same.

+Shadow-banning users
+====================
+
+Shadow-banning is a useful tool for moderating malicious or egregiously abusive users.
+A shadow-banned users receives successful responses to their client-server API requests,
+but the events are not propagated into rooms. This can be an effective tool as it
+(hopefully) takes longer for the user to realise they are being moderated before
+pivoting to another account.
+
+Shadow-banning a user should be used as a tool of last resort and may lead to confusing
+or broken behaviour for the client. A shadow-banned user will not receive any
+notification and it is generally more appropriate to ban or kick abusive users.
+A shadow-banned user will be unable to contact anyone on the server.
+
+The API is::
+
+  POST /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>/shadow_ban
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a
+server admin: see `README.rst <README.rst>`_.
+
+An empty JSON dict is returned.
+
+**Parameters**
+
+The following parameters should be set in the URL:
+
+- ``user_id`` - The fully qualified MXID: for example, ``@user:server.com``. The user must
+  be local.
