Steps
Obtain an API key from the Repetier-Server web UI user settings to authenticate requests.
Call the REST endpoint using the pattern /printer/api/<printer_slug>?a=<command>&data=<json>&apikey=<key>, using GET for simple calls and POST for larger payloads.
List printers and jobs first to obtain the correct printer slug and job identifiers before issuing job commands.
Send job-management commands (e.g. adding/copying a gcode job to the queue, starting, deleting) via the same endpoint pattern with the appropriate command name.
Consider the WebSocket API instead of REST polling for real-time job and printer status updates.
Known gotchas
Full command names and parameters are documented in the module reference on repetier-server.com — many third-party client libraries only wrap a subset of the available commands.
The API key is tied to a specific user account's permissions; some administrative commands require an admin-level key.
REST and WebSocket APIs overlap but aren't identical — some real-time events are only delivered over WebSocket, not via REST polling.
