GET /info

Server provisioning info — used by the firmware installer

Overview

Returns server discovery information used by the firmware installer GUI and provisioning scripts to configure thermostat firmware to point at this server.

This endpoint is at the root level (/info), not under /nest/. It is served on port 8000 (device protocol).

Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
server	string	Always "nolongerevil"
version	string	Server software version
api_origin	string	Configured API_ORIGIN value
cloudregisterurl	string	Value to set in thermostat firmware config ({api_origin}/entry)
ip	string	IP address extracted from api_origin
port	number	Port extracted from api_origin
ssl	boolean	Whether api_origin uses HTTPS
require_device_pairing	boolean	Whether entry key pairing is required
entry_key_ttl_seconds	number	How long entry keys remain valid (seconds)

Use Case

The firmware installer reads this endpoint to get the cloudregisterurl value it needs to embed into the thermostat firmware image during flashing. The installer fetches /info, extracts cloudregisterurl, and writes it into the firmware configuration at flash time.

The installer also uses ip, port, and ssl to construct the firmware’s network configuration.

Example

curl http://your-server:8000/info | jq .
