# REST API (V1)

> Overview of the Sandbox Server V1 REST endpoints for conversations and sandboxes.

The [OpenHands Sandbox Server](https://github.com/OpenHands/sandbox-server) is the standalone API and sandbox control plane extracted from the former OpenHands monorepo. It exposes conversation and sandbox resources without bundling a frontend.

<Note>
  The legacy (V0) API belongs to the archived Local GUI architecture. See the **V0 REST API** section in the Home tab when maintaining an existing V0 integration.
</Note>

## Overview

Sandbox Server V1 REST endpoints are mounted under:

* <code>/api/v1</code>

Use these endpoints to integrate with the Sandbox Server control plane. Sandbox Server itself does not include a frontend.

## Key resources

The V1 API is organized around a few core concepts:

* **App conversations**: create/list conversations and access conversation metadata.
  * <code>POST /api/v1/app-conversations</code>
  * <code>GET /api/v1/app-conversations</code>

* **Sandboxes**: list/start/pause/resume the execution environments that power conversations.
  * <code>GET /api/v1/sandboxes/search</code>
  * <code>POST /api/v1/sandboxes</code>
  * <code>POST /api/v1/sandboxes/{id}/pause</code>
  * <code>POST /api/v1/sandboxes/{id}/resume</code>

* **Sandbox specs**: list the available sandbox “templates” (e.g., Docker image presets).
  * <code>GET /api/v1/sandbox-specs/search</code>
