+Json-RPC API
+============
+
+Protocol
+--------
+
+Kanboard use the protocol Json-RPC to interact with external programs.
+
+JSON-RPC is a remote procedure call protocol encoded in JSON.
+Almost the same thing as XML-RPC but with the JSON format.
+
+We use the [version 2 of the protocol](http://www.jsonrpc.org/specification).
+You must call the API with a `POST` HTTP request.
+
+Credentials
+-----------
+
+The API credentials are available on the settings page.
+
+- API end-point: `http://YOUR_SERVER/jsonrpc.php`
+- Username: `jsonrpc`
+- Password: Random token (API token on the settings page)
+
+The API use the [HTTP Basic Authentication Scheme described in the RFC2617](http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2617.txt).
+If there is an authentication error, you got an HTTP status code `401 Not Authorized`.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+### Example with cURL
+
+From the command line:
+
+```bash
+curl \
+-u "jsonrpc:19ffd9709d03ce50675c3a43d1c49c1ac207f4bc45f06c5b2701fbdf8929" \
+-d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "getAllProjects", "id": 1}' \
+http://localhost/kanboard/jsonrpc.php
+```
+
+Response from the server:
+
+```json
+{
+    "jsonrpc":"2.0",
+    "id":1,
+    "result":[
+        {
+            "id":"1",
+            "name":"API test",
+            "is_active":"1",
+            "token":"6bd0932fe7f4b5e6e4bc3c72800bfdef36a2c5de2f38f756dfb5bd632ebf",
+            "last_modified":"1403392631"
+        }
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+### Example with a PHP client:
+
+I wrote a simple [Json-RPC Client/Server library in PHP](https://github.com/fguillot/JsonRPC), here an example:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+$client = new JsonRPC\Client('http://localhost:8000/jsonrpc.php');
+$client->authentication('jsonrpc', '19ffd9709d03ce50675c3a43d1c49c1ac207f4bc45f06c5b2701fbdf8929');
+
+print_r($client->getAllProjects());
+
+```
+
+The response:
+
+```
+Array
+(
+    [0] => Array
+        (
+            [id] => 1
+            [name] => API test
+            [is_active] => 1
+            [token] => 6bd0932fe7f4b5e6e4bc3c72800bfdef36a2c5de2f38f756dfb5bd632ebf
+            [last_modified] => 1403392631
+        )
+
+)
+```
