# Supported admin APIs
Dendrite supports, at present, a very small number of endpoints that allow
admin users to perform administrative functions. Please note that there is no
API stability guarantee on these endpoints at present — they may change shape
without warning.
More endpoints will be added in the future.
Endpoints may be used directly through curl.:
```
curl --header "Authorization: Bearer <access_token>" -X <POST|GET|PUT> <Endpoint URI> -d '<Request Body Content>'
```
## GET `/_dendrite/admin/evacuateRoom/{roomID}`
This endpoint will instruct Dendrite to part all local users from the given `roomID`
in the URL. It may take some time to complete. A JSON body will be returned containing
the user IDs of all affected users.
## GET `/_dendrite/admin/evacuateUser/{userID}`
This endpoint will instruct Dendrite to part the given local `userID` in the URL from
all rooms which they are currently joined. A JSON body will be returned containing
the room IDs of all affected rooms.
## POST `/_dendrite/admin/resetPassword/{localpart}`
Request body format:
```
{
"password": "new_password_here"
}
```
Reset the password of a local user. The `localpart` is the username only, i.e. if
the full user ID is `@alice:domain.com` then the local part is `alice`.
## POST `/_synapse/admin/v1/send_server_notice`
Request body format:
```
{
"user_id": "@target_user:server_name",
"content": {
"msgtype": "m.text",
"body": "This is my message"
}
}
```
Send a server notice to a specific user.
If successfully sent, the API will return the following response:
```
{
"event_id": "<event_id>"
}
```
## GET `/_synapse/admin/v1/register`
Shared secret registration — please see the [user creation page](createusers) for
guidance on configuring and using this endpoint.
## GET `/_matrix/client/v3/admin/whois/{userId}`
From [Matrix Spec](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.3/client-server-api/#get_matrixclientv3adminwhoisuserid).
Gets information about a particular user. ```userId``` is the full user ID e.g. ```@alice:domain.com```
