Where did the API documentation in the documentation go? There used to be this great listing of all of the API calls but it seems to be gone now?

How do you authenticate though?

Is there an old copy of the API docs around? The ones that explained how you authenticate over HTTP and websockets?

Don't use those, they're out of date. You need to login, it returns a jwt string, and you store that and use it every auth field. It says that on the line I linked you.
