# API documentation
|

|
|
Portainer exposes an HTTP API that you can use to automate everything you do via the Portainer UI. You can also use Portainer as a gateway (HTTP queries against the Portainer API) to the underlying Docker/Kubernetes API.

|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
|
You will need an access token in order to use the Portainer API. If you have not already set up an access token for the API, we have [instructions on how to do so](access.md).
|
|
{% endhint %}
