+## Code style
 
 Synapse's code style is documented [here](docs/code_style.md). Please follow
 it, including the conventions for the [sample configuration
 file](docs/code_style.md#configuration-file-format).
 
-There is a growing amount of documentation located in the [docs](docs)
-directory. This documentation is intended primarily for sysadmins running their
-own Synapse instance, as well as developers interacting externally with
-Synapse. [docs/dev](docs/dev) exists primarily to house documentation for
-Synapse developers. [docs/admin_api](docs/admin_api) houses documentation
-regarding Synapse's Admin API, which is used mostly by sysadmins and external
-service developers.
+Many of the conventions are enforced by scripts which are run as part of the
+[continuous integration system](#continuous-integration-and-testing). To help
+check if you have followed the code style, you can run `scripts-dev/lint.sh`
+locally. You'll need python 3.6 or later, and to install a number of tools:
 
-If you add new files added to either of these folders, please use [GitHub-Flavoured
-Markdown](https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/).
+```
+# Install the dependencies
+pip install -e ".[lint,mypy]"
 
-Some documentation also exists in [Synapse's GitHub
-Wiki](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/wiki), although this is primarily
-contributed to by community authors.

-
-# 8. Test, test, test!
-<a name="test-test-test"></a>
-
-While you're developing and before submitting a patch, you'll
-want to test your code.
-
-## Run the linters.
-
-The linters look at your code and do two things:
-
-- ensure that your code follows the coding style adopted by the project;
-- catch a number of errors in your code.
-
-They're pretty fast, don't hesitate!
-
-```sh
-source ./env/bin/activate
+# Run the linter script
 ./scripts-dev/lint.sh
 ```
 
-Note that this script *will modify your files* to fix styling errors.
-Make sure that you have saved all your files.
+**Note that the script does not just test/check, but also reformats code, so you
+may wish to ensure any new code is committed first**.
 
-If you wish to restrict the linters to only the files changed since the last commit
-(much faster!), you can instead run:
+By default, this script checks all files and can take some time; if you alter
+only certain files, you might wish to specify paths as arguments to reduce the
+run-time:
 
-```sh
-source ./env/bin/activate
-./scripts-dev/lint.sh -d
 ```
-
-Or if you know exactly which files you wish to lint, you can instead run:
-
-```sh
-source ./env/bin/activate
 ./scripts-dev/lint.sh path/to/file1.py path/to/file2.py path/to/folder
 ```
 
-## Run the unit tests.
+You can also provide the `-d` option, which will lint the files that have been
+changed since the last git commit. This will often be significantly faster than
+linting the whole codebase.
 
-The unit tests run parts of Synapse, including your changes, to see if anything
-was broken. They are slower than the linters but will typically catch more errors.
-
-```sh
-source ./env/bin/activate
-trial tests
-```
-
-If you wish to only run *some* unit tests, you may specify
-another module instead of `tests` - or a test class or a method:
-
-```sh
-source ./env/bin/activate
-trial tests.rest.admin.test_room tests.handlers.test_admin.ExfiltrateData.test_invite
-```
-
-If your tests fail, you may wish to look at the logs (the default log level is `ERROR`):
-
-```sh
-less _trial_temp/test.log
-```
-
-To increase the log level for the tests, set `SYNAPSE_TEST_LOG_LEVEL`:
-
-```sh
-SYNAPSE_TEST_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG trial tests
-```
-
-
-## Run the integration tests.
-
-The integration tests are a more comprehensive suite of tests. They
-run a full version of Synapse, including your changes, to check if
-anything was broken. They are slower than the unit tests but will
-typically catch more errors.
-
-The following command will let you run the integration test with the most common
-configuration:
-
-```sh
-$ docker run --rm -it -v /path/where/you/have/cloned/the/repository\:/src:ro -v /path/to/where/you/want/logs\:/logs matrixdotorg/sytest-synapse:py37
-```
-
-This configuration should generally cover  your needs. For more details about other configurations, see [documentation in the SyTest repo](https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest/blob/develop/docker/README.md).
-
-
-# 9. Submit your patch.
-
-Once you're happy with your patch, it's time to prepare a Pull Request.
-
-To prepare a Pull Request, please:
-
-1. verify that [all the tests pass](#test-test-test), including the coding style;
-2. [sign off](#sign-off) your contribution;
-3. `git push` your commit to your fork of Synapse;
-4. on GitHub, [create the Pull Request](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request);
-5. add a [changelog entry](#changelog) and push it to your Pull Request;
-6. for most contributors, that's all - however, if you are a member of the organization `matrix-org`, on GitHub, please request a review from `matrix.org / Synapse Core`.
+Before pushing new changes, ensure they don't produce linting errors. Commit any
+files that were corrected.
 
+Please ensure your changes match the cosmetic style of the existing project,
+and **never** mix cosmetic and functional changes in the same commit, as it

+content served to web browsers a matrix API from being able to attack webapps hosted
+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
-the domain with Matrix web clients and other sensitive applications like
-webmail. See

-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
-impact to other applications will be minimal.

-Account Validity HTML templates can now display a user's expiration date

-
-This may affect you if you have enabled the account validity feature, and have made use of a
-custom HTML template specified by the ``account_validity.template_dir`` or ``account_validity.account_renewed_html_path``
-Synapse config options.
-
-The template can now accept an ``expiration_ts`` variable, which represents the unix timestamp in milliseconds for the
-future date of which their account has been renewed until. See the
-`default template <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.33.0/synapse/res/templates/account_renewed.html>`_
-for an example of usage.
-
-ALso note that a new HTML template, ``account_previously_renewed.html``, has been added. This is is shown to users
-when they attempt to renew their account with a valid renewal token that has already been used before. The default
-template contents can been found

-
-This release introduces `a regression <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/9853>`_
-that can overwhelm connected Prometheus instances. This issue is not present in
-Synapse v1.32.0rc1.
-
-If you have been affected, please downgrade to 1.31.0. You then may need to
-remove excess writeahead logs in order for Prometheus to recover. Instructions
-for doing so are provided
-`here <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/pull/9854#issuecomment-823472183>`_.
-
-Dropping support for old Python, Postgres and SQLite versions
--------------------------------------------------------------
-
-In line with our `deprecation policy <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/release-v1.32.0/docs/deprecation_policy.md>`_,
-we've dropped support for Python 3.5 and PostgreSQL 9.5, as they are no longer supported upstream.
-
-This release of Synapse requires Python 3.6+ and PostgresSQL 9.6+ or SQLite 3.22+.
-
-Removal of old List Accounts Admin API
---------------------------------------
-
-The deprecated v1 "list accounts" admin API (``GET /_synapse/admin/v1/users/<user_id>``) has been removed in this version.
-
-The `v2 list accounts API <https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/docs/admin_api/user_admin_api.rst#list-accounts>`_
-has been available since Synapse 1.7.0 (2019-12-13), and is accessible under ``GET /_synapse/admin/v2/users``.
-
-The deprecation of the old endpoint was announced with Synapse 1.28.0 (released on 2021-02-25).
-
-Application Services must use type ``m.login.application_service`` when registering users
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-In compliance with the
-`Application Service spec <https://matrix.org/docs/spec/application_service/r0.1.2#server-admin-style-permissions>`_,
-Application Services are now required to use the ``m.login.application_service`` type when registering users via the
-``/_matrix/client/r0/register`` endpoint. This behaviour was deprecated in Synapse v1.30.0.
-
-Please ensure your Application Services are up to date.
-
-Upgrading to v1.29.0
-====================
-
-Requirement for X-Forwarded-Proto header
-----------------------------------------
-
-When using Synapse with a reverse proxy (in particular, when using the
-`x_forwarded` option on an HTTP listener), Synapse now expects to receive an
-`X-Forwarded-Proto` header on incoming HTTP requests. If it is not set, Synapse
-will log a warning on each received request.
-
-To avoid the warning, administrators using a reverse proxy should ensure that
-the reverse proxy sets `X-Forwarded-Proto` header to `https` or `http` to
-indicate the protocol used by the client.
-
-Synapse also requires the `Host` header to be preserved.
-
-See the `reverse proxy documentation <docs/reverse_proxy.md>`_, where the
-example configurations have been updated to show how to set these headers.
-
-(Users of `Caddy <https://caddyserver.com/>`_ are unaffected, since we believe it
-sets `X-Forwarded-Proto` by default.)
-
-Upgrading to v1.27.0
-====================
-
-Changes to callback URI for OAuth2 / OpenID Connect and SAML2
--------------------------------------------------------------
-
-This version changes the URI used for callbacks from OAuth2 and SAML2 identity providers:
-
-* If your server is configured for single sign-on via an OpenID Connect or OAuth2 identity
-  provider, you will need to add ``[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/oidc/callback``
-  to the list of permitted "redirect URIs" at the identity provider.
-
-  See `docs/openid.md <docs/openid.md>`_ for more information on setting up OpenID
-  Connect.
-
-* If your server is configured for single sign-on via a SAML2 identity provider, you will
-  need to add ``[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/saml2/authn_response`` as a permitted
-  "ACS location" (also known as "allowed callback URLs") at the identity provider.
-
-  The "Issuer" in the "AuthnRequest" to the SAML2 identity provider is also updated to
-  ``[synapse public baseurl]/_synapse/client/saml2/metadata.xml``. If your SAML2 identity
-  provider uses this property to validate or otherwise identify Synapse, its configuration
-  will need to be updated to use the new URL. Alternatively you could create a new, separate
-  "EntityDescriptor" in your SAML2 identity provider with the new URLs and leave the URLs in
-  the existing "EntityDescriptor" as they were.
-
-Changes to HTML templates
--------------------------
-
-The HTML templates for SSO and email notifications now have `Jinja2's autoescape <https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/2.11.x/api/#autoescaping>`_
-enabled for files ending in ``.html``, ``.htm``, and ``.xml``. If you have customised
-these templates and see issues when viewing them you might need to update them.
-It is expected that most configurations will need no changes.
-
-If you have customised the templates *names* for these templates, it is recommended
-to verify they end in ``.html`` to ensure autoescape is enabled.
-
-The above applies to the following templates:
-
-* ``add_threepid.html``
-* ``add_threepid_failure.html``
-* ``add_threepid_success.html``
-* ``notice_expiry.html``
-* ``notice_expiry.html``
-* ``notif_mail.html`` (which, by default, includes ``room.html`` and ``notif.html``)
-* ``password_reset.html``
-* ``password_reset_confirmation.html``
-* ``password_reset_failure.html``
-* ``password_reset_success.html``
-* ``registration.html``
-* ``registration_failure.html``
-* ``registration_success.html``
-* ``sso_account_deactivated.html``
-* ``sso_auth_bad_user.html``
-* ``sso_auth_confirm.html``
-* ``sso_auth_success.html``
-* ``sso_error.html``
-* ``sso_login_idp_picker.html``

-# 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>`_.

-instance with administrator accounts.
-
-To authenticate yourself to the server, you will need both the shared secret

-```
-
-Once you have the nonce, you can make a `POST` to the same URL with a JSON
-body containing the nonce, username, password, whether they are an admin
-(optional, False by default), and a HMAC digest of the content. Also you can
-set the displayname (optional, `username` by default).

+
+Create or modify Account
+========================
+
+This API allows an administrator to create or modify a user account with a
+specific ``user_id``.
+
+This api is::
+
+    PUT /_synapse/admin/v2/users/<user_id>
+
+with a body of:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+    {
+        "password": "user_password",
+        "displayname": "User",
+        "threepids": [

+        "avatar_url": "<avatar_url>",
+        "admin": false,
+        "deactivated": false
+    }
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a
+server admin: see `README.rst <README.rst>`_.
+
+URL parameters:
+
+- ``user_id``: fully-qualified user id: for example, ``@user:server.com``.
+
+Body parameters:
+
+- ``password``, optional. If provided, the user's password is updated and all
+  devices are logged out.
+
+- ``displayname``, optional, defaults to the value of ``user_id``.
+
+- ``threepids``, optional, allows setting the third-party IDs (email, msisdn)
+  belonging to a user.
+
+- ``avatar_url``, optional, must be a
+  `MXC URI <https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.0#matrix-content-mxc-uris>`_.
+
+- ``admin``, optional, defaults to ``false``.
+
+- ``deactivated``, optional. If unspecified, deactivation state will be left
+  unchanged on existing accounts and set to ``false`` for new accounts.
+  A user cannot be erased by deactivating with this API. For details on deactivating users see
+  `Deactivate Account <#deactivate-account>`_.
+
+If the user already exists then optional parameters default to the current value.
+
+In order to re-activate an account ``deactivated`` must be set to ``false``. If
+users do not login via single-sign-on, a new ``password`` must be provided.
+
+List Accounts
+=============
+
+This API returns all local user accounts.
+
+The api is::
+
+    GET /_synapse/admin/v2/users?from=0&limit=10&guests=false
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a
+server admin: see `README.rst <README.rst>`_.
+
+The parameter ``from`` 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.
+
+The parameter ``limit`` is optional but is used for pagination, denoting the
+maximum number of items to return in this call. Defaults to ``100``.
+
+The parameter ``user_id`` is optional and filters to only return users with user IDs
+that contain this value. This parameter is ignored when using the ``name`` parameter.
+
+The parameter ``name`` is optional and filters to only return users with user ID localparts
+**or** displaynames that contain this value.
+
+The parameter ``guests`` is optional and if ``false`` will **exclude** guest users.
+Defaults to ``true`` to include guest users.
+
+The parameter ``deactivated`` is optional and if ``true`` will **include** deactivated users.

+    }
+
+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 users
+to paginate through.
+
+Query current sessions for a user
+=================================
+
+This API returns information about the active sessions for a specific user.
+
+The api is::
+
+    GET /_synapse/admin/v1/whois/<user_id>
+
+and::

+                ]
+            }
+        }
+    }
+
+``last_seen`` is measured in milliseconds since the Unix epoch.
+
+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
+
+

+       "logout_devices": true
+   }
+
+To use it, you will need to authenticate by providing an ``access_token`` for a

+
+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.

-Deprecation Policy for Platform Dependencies
-============================================
-
-Synapse has a number of platform dependencies, including Python and PostgreSQL.
-This document outlines the policy towards which versions we support, and when we
-drop support for versions in the future.
-
-
-Policy
-------
-
-Synapse follows the upstream support life cycles for Python and PostgreSQL,
-i.e. when a version reaches End of Life Synapse will withdraw support for that
-version in future releases.
-
-Details on the upstream support life cycles for Python and PostgreSQL are
-documented at https://endoflife.date/python and
-https://endoflife.date/postgresql.
-
-
-Context
--------
-
-It is important for system admins to have a clear understanding of the platform
-requirements of Synapse and its deprecation policies so that they can
-effectively plan upgrading their infrastructure ahead of time. This is
-especially important in contexts where upgrading the infrastructure requires
-auditing and approval from a security team, or where otherwise upgrading is a
-long process.
-
-By following the upstream support life cycles Synapse can ensure that its
-dependencies continue to get security patches, while not requiring system admins
-to constantly update their platform dependencies to the latest versions.

-# Synapse database schema files
-
-Synapse's database schema is stored in the `synapse.storage.schema` module.
-
-## Logical databases
-
-Synapse supports splitting its datastore across multiple physical databases (which can
-be useful for large installations), and the schema files are therefore split according
-to the logical database they apply to.
-
-At the time of writing, the following "logical" databases are supported:
-
-* `state` - used to store Matrix room state (more specifically, `state_groups`,
-  their relationships and contents).
-* `main` - stores everything else.
-
-Additionally, the `common` directory contains schema files for tables which must be
-present on *all* physical databases.
-
-## Synapse schema versions
-
-Synapse manages its database schema via "schema versions". These are mainly used to
-help avoid confusion if the Synapse codebase is rolled back after the database is
-updated. They work as follows:
-
- * The Synapse codebase defines a constant `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_VERSION`
-   which represents the expectations made about the database by that version. For
-   example, as of Synapse v1.36, this is `59`.
-
- * The database stores a "compatibility version" in
-   `schema_compat_version.compat_version` which defines the `SCHEMA_VERSION` of the
-   oldest version of Synapse which will work with the database. On startup, if
-   `compat_version` is found to be newer than `SCHEMA_VERSION`, Synapse will refuse to
-   start.
-
-   Synapse automatically updates this field from
-   `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION`.
-
- * Whenever a backwards-incompatible change is made to the database format (normally
-   via a `delta` file), `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION` is also updated
-   so that administrators can not accidentally roll back to a too-old version of Synapse.
-
-Generally, the goal is to maintain compatibility with at least one or two previous
-releases of Synapse, so any substantial change tends to require multiple releases and a
-bit of forward-planning to get right.
-
-As a worked example: we want to remove the `room_stats_historical` table. Here is how it
-might pan out.
-
- 1. Replace any code that *reads* from `room_stats_historical` with alternative
-    implementations, but keep writing to it in case of rollback to an earlier version.
-    Also, increase `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_VERSION`.  In this
-    instance, there is no existing code which reads from `room_stats_historical`, so
-    our starting point is:
-
-    v1.36.0: `SCHEMA_VERSION=59`, `SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION=59`
-
- 2. Next (say in Synapse v1.37.0): remove the code that *writes* to
-    `room_stats_historical`, but don’t yet remove the table in case of rollback to
-    v1.36.0. Again, we increase `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_VERSION`, but
-    because we have not broken compatibility with v1.36, we do not yet update
-    `SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION`. We now have:
-
-    v1.37.0: `SCHEMA_VERSION=60`, `SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION=59`.
-
- 3. Later (say in Synapse v1.38.0): we can remove the table altogether. This will
-    break compatibility with v1.36.0, so we must update `SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION` accordingly.
-    There is no need to update `synapse.storage.schema.SCHEMA_VERSION`, since there is no
-    change to the Synapse codebase here. So we end up with:
-
-    v1.38.0: `SCHEMA_VERSION=60`, `SCHEMA_COMPAT_VERSION=60`.
-
-If in doubt about whether to update `SCHEMA_VERSION` or not, it is generally best to
-lean towards doing so.
-
-## Full schema dumps
-
-In the `full_schemas` directories, only the most recently-numbered snapshot is used
-(`54` at the time of writing). Older snapshots (eg, `16`) are present for historical
-reference only.
-
-### Building full schema dumps
-
-If you want to recreate these schemas, they need to be made from a database that
-has had all background updates run.
-
-To do so, use `scripts-dev/make_full_schema.sh`. This will produce new
-`full.sql.postgres` and `full.sql.sqlite` files.
-
-Ensure postgres is installed, then run:
-
-    ./scripts-dev/make_full_schema.sh -p postgres_username -o output_dir/
-
-NB at the time of writing, this script predates the split into separate `state`/`main`
-databases so will require updates to handle that correctly.
-
-## Boolean columns
-
-Boolean columns require special treatment, since SQLite treats booleans the
-same as integers.
-
-There are three separate aspects to this:
-
- * Any new boolean column must be added to the `BOOLEAN_COLUMNS` list in
-   `scripts/synapse_port_db`. This tells the port script to cast the integer
-   value from SQLite to a boolean before writing the value to the postgres
-   database.
-
- * Before SQLite 3.23, `TRUE` and `FALSE` were not recognised as constants by
-   SQLite, and the `IS [NOT] TRUE`/`IS [NOT] FALSE` operators were not
-   supported. This makes it necessary to avoid using `TRUE` and `FALSE`
-   constants in SQL commands.
-
-   For example, to insert a `TRUE` value into the database, write:
-
-   ```python
-   txn.execute("INSERT INTO tbl(col) VALUES (?)", (True, ))
-   ```
-
- * Default values for new boolean columns present a particular
-   difficulty. Generally it is best to create separate schema files for
-   Postgres and SQLite. For example:
-
-   ```sql
-   # in 00delta.sql.postgres:
-   ALTER TABLE tbl ADD COLUMN col BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE;
-   ```
-
-   ```sql
-   # in 00delta.sql.sqlite:
-   ALTER TABLE tbl ADD COLUMN col BOOLEAN DEFAULT 0;
-   ```
-
-   Note that there is a particularly insidious failure mode here: the Postgres
-   flavour will be accepted by SQLite 3.22, but will give a column whose
-   default value is the **string** `"FALSE"` - which, when cast back to a boolean
-   in Python, evaluates to `True`.

-# Modules
-
-Synapse supports extending its functionality by configuring external modules.
-
-## Using modules
-
-To use a module on Synapse, add it to the `modules` section of the configuration file:
-
-```yaml
-modules:
-  - module: my_super_module.MySuperClass
-    config:
-      do_thing: true
-  - module: my_other_super_module.SomeClass
-    config: {}
-```
-
-Each module is defined by a path to a Python class as well as a configuration. This
-information for a given module should be available in the module's own documentation.
-
-**Note**: When using third-party modules, you effectively allow someone else to run
-custom code on your Synapse homeserver. Server admins are encouraged to verify the
-provenance of the modules they use on their homeserver and make sure the modules aren't
-running malicious code on their instance.
-
-Also note that we are currently in the process of migrating module interfaces to this
-system. While some interfaces might be compatible with it, others still require
-configuring modules in another part of Synapse's configuration file. Currently, only the
-spam checker interface is compatible with this new system.
-
-## Writing a module
-
-A module is a Python class that uses Synapse's module API to interact with the
-homeserver. It can register callbacks that Synapse will call on specific operations, as
-well as web resources to attach to Synapse's web server.
-
-When instantiated, a module is given its parsed configuration as well as an instance of
-the `synapse.module_api.ModuleApi` class. The configuration is a dictionary, and is
-either the output of the module's `parse_config` static method (see below), or the
-configuration associated with the module in Synapse's configuration file.
-
-See the documentation for the `ModuleApi` class
-[here](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/synapse/module_api/__init__.py).
-
-### Handling the module's configuration
-
-A module can implement the following static method:
-
-```python
-@staticmethod
-def parse_config(config: dict) -> dict
-```
-
-This method is given a dictionary resulting from parsing the YAML configuration for the
-module. It may modify it (for example by parsing durations expressed as strings (e.g.
-"5d") into milliseconds, etc.), and return the modified dictionary. It may also verify
-that the configuration is correct, and raise an instance of
-`synapse.module_api.errors.ConfigError` if not.
-
-### Registering a web resource
-
-Modules can register web resources onto Synapse's web server using the following module
-API method:
-
-```python
-def ModuleApi.register_web_resource(path: str, resource: IResource)
-```
-
-The path is the full absolute path to register the resource at. For example, if you
-register a resource for the path `/_synapse/client/my_super_module/say_hello`, Synapse
-will serve it at `http(s)://[HS_URL]/_synapse/client/my_super_module/say_hello`. Note
-that Synapse does not allow registering resources for several sub-paths in the `/_matrix`
-namespace (such as anything under `/_matrix/client` for example). It is strongly
-recommended that modules register their web resources under the `/_synapse/client`
-namespace.
-
-The provided resource is a Python class that implements Twisted's [IResource](https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.web.resource.IResource.html)
-interface (such as [Resource](https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/api/twisted.web.resource.Resource.html)).
-
-Only one resource can be registered for a given path. If several modules attempt to
-register a resource for the same path, the module that appears first in Synapse's
-configuration file takes priority.
-
-Modules **must** register their web resources in their `__init__` method.
-
-### Registering a callback
-
-Modules can use Synapse's module API to register callbacks. Callbacks are functions that
-Synapse will call when performing specific actions. Callbacks must be asynchronous, and
-are split in categories. A single module may implement callbacks from multiple categories,
-and is under no obligation to implement all callbacks from the categories it registers
-callbacks for.
-
-#### Spam checker callbacks
-
-To register one of the callbacks described in this section, a module needs to use the
-module API's `register_spam_checker_callbacks` method. The callback functions are passed
-to `register_spam_checker_callbacks` as keyword arguments, with the callback name as the
-argument name and the function as its value. This is demonstrated in the example below.
-
-The available spam checker callbacks are:
-
-```python
-async def check_event_for_spam(event: "synapse.events.EventBase") -> Union[bool, str]
-```
-
-Called when receiving an event from a client or via federation. The module can return
-either a `bool` to indicate whether the event must be rejected because of spam, or a `str`
-to indicate the event must be rejected because of spam and to give a rejection reason to
-forward to clients.
-
-```python
-async def user_may_invite(inviter: str, invitee: str, room_id: str) -> bool
-```
-
-Called when processing an invitation. The module must return a `bool` indicating whether
-the inviter can invite the invitee to the given room. Both inviter and invitee are
-represented by their Matrix user ID (i.e. `@alice:example.com`).
-
-```python
-async def user_may_create_room(user: str) -> bool
-```
-
-Called when processing a room creation request. The module must return a `bool` indicating
-whether the given user (represented by their Matrix user ID) is allowed to create a room.
-
-```python
-async def user_may_create_room_alias(user: str, room_alias: "synapse.types.RoomAlias") -> bool
-```
-
-Called when trying to associate an alias with an existing room. The module must return a
-`bool` indicating whether the given user (represented by their Matrix user ID) is allowed
-to set the given alias.
-
-```python
-async def user_may_publish_room(user: str, room_id: str) -> bool
-```
-
-Called when trying to publish a room to the homeserver's public rooms directory. The
-module must return a `bool` indicating whether the given user (represented by their
-Matrix user ID) is allowed to publish the given room.
-
-```python
-async def check_username_for_spam(user_profile: Dict[str, str]) -> bool
-```
-
-Called when computing search results in the user directory. The module must return a
-`bool` indicating whether the given user profile can appear in search results. The profile
-is represented as a dictionary with the following keys:
-
-* `user_id`: The Matrix ID for this user.
-* `display_name`: The user's display name.
-* `avatar_url`: The `mxc://` URL to the user's avatar.
-
-The module is given a copy of the original dictionary, so modifying it from within the
-module cannot modify a user's profile when included in user directory search results.
-
-```python
-async def check_registration_for_spam(
-    email_threepid: Optional[dict],
-    username: Optional[str],
-    request_info: Collection[Tuple[str, str]],
-    auth_provider_id: Optional[str] = None,
-) -> "synapse.spam_checker_api.RegistrationBehaviour"
-```
-
-Called when registering a new user. The module must return a `RegistrationBehaviour`
-indicating whether the registration can go through or must be denied, or whether the user
-may be allowed to register but will be shadow banned.
-
-The arguments passed to this callback are:
-
-* `email_threepid`: The email address used for registering, if any.
-* `username`: The username the user would like to register. Can be `None`, meaning that
-  Synapse will generate one later.
-* `request_info`: A collection of tuples, which first item is a user agent, and which
-  second item is an IP address. These user agents and IP addresses are the ones that were
-  used during the registration process.
-* `auth_provider_id`: The identifier of the SSO authentication provider, if any.
-
-```python
-async def check_media_file_for_spam(
-    file_wrapper: "synapse.rest.media.v1.media_storage.ReadableFileWrapper",
-    file_info: "synapse.rest.media.v1._base.FileInfo"
-) -> bool
-```
-
-Called when storing a local or remote file. The module must return a boolean indicating
-whether the given file can be stored in the homeserver's media store.
-
-### Porting an existing module that uses the old interface
-
-In order to port a module that uses Synapse's old module interface, its author needs to:
-
-* ensure the module's callbacks are all asynchronous.
-* register their callbacks using one or more of the `register_[...]_callbacks` methods
-  from the `ModuleApi` class in the module's `__init__` method (see [this section](#registering-a-web-resource)
-  for more info).
-
-Additionally, if the module is packaged with an additional web resource, the module
-should register this resource in its `__init__` method using the `register_web_resource`
-method from the `ModuleApi` class (see [this section](#registering-a-web-resource) for
-more info).
-
-The module's author should also update any example in the module's configuration to only
-use the new `modules` section in Synapse's configuration file (see [this section](#using-modules)
-for more info).
-
-### Example
-
-The example below is a module that implements the spam checker callback
-`user_may_create_room` to deny room creation to user `@evilguy:example.com`, and registers
-a web resource to the path `/_synapse/client/demo/hello` that returns a JSON object.
-
-```python
-import json
-
-from twisted.web.resource import Resource
-from twisted.web.server import Request
-
-from synapse.module_api import ModuleApi
-
-
-class DemoResource(Resource):
-    def __init__(self, config):
-        super(DemoResource, self).__init__()
-        self.config = config
-
-    def render_GET(self, request: Request):
-        name = request.args.get(b"name")[0]
-        request.setHeader(b"Content-Type", b"application/json")
-        return json.dumps({"hello": name})
-
-
-class DemoModule:
-    def __init__(self, config: dict, api: ModuleApi):
-        self.config = config
-        self.api = api
-
-        self.api.register_web_resource(
-            path="/_synapse/client/demo/hello",
-            resource=DemoResource(self.config),
-        )
-
-        self.api.register_spam_checker_callbacks(
-            user_may_create_room=self.user_may_create_room,
-        )
-
-    @staticmethod
-    def parse_config(config):
-        return config
-
-    async def user_may_create_room(self, user: str) -> bool:
-        if user == "@evilguy:example.com":
-            return False
-
-        return True

-login mechanism needs an attribute to uniquely identify users, and that endpoint
-does not return a `sub` property, an alternative `subject_claim` has to be set.

-Configuring "Sign in with Apple" (SiWA) requires an Apple Developer account.
-
-You will need to create a new "Services ID" for SiWA, and create and download a
-private key with "SiWA" enabled.
-
-As well as the private key file, you will need:
- * Client ID: the "identifier" you gave the "Services ID"
- * Team ID: a 10-character ID associated with your developer account.
- * Key ID: the 10-character identifier for the key.
-
-https://help.apple.com/developer-account/?lang=en#/dev77c875b7e has more
-documentation on setting up SiWA.
