This API returns the running Synapse version. This is useful when a Synapse instance is behind a proxy that does not forward the 'Server' header (which also contains Synapse version information).
The api is:
GET /_synapse/admin/v1/server_version
It returns a JSON body like the following:
{
"server_version": "0.99.2rc1 (b=develop, abcdef123)"
}
Changed in Synapse 1.94.0: The python_version
key was removed from the
response body.
