Explorer UI

Flask-JSONRPC includes an optional web-based explorer that lists methods and lets you invoke them interactively.

Enable it:

JSONRPC(app, "/api", enable_web_browsable_api=True)

Visit:

/api/browse

Features

  • lists all registered methods

  • groups methods by namespace

  • shows docstrings and type signatures

  • allows executing calls directly from the browser

  • displays request and response JSON

  • supports introspection methods

Disabling the Explorer

Useful in production:

JSONRPC(app, "/api", enable_web_browsable_api=False)

Custom Explorer Pages (Advanced)

You may override the template by placing a file named jsonrpc/explorer.html inside your template directory.

This allows:

  • custom branding

  • hiding sensitive methods

  • adding authentication
