Instance Settings

Admin-only runtime configuration registry.

Base path: /v1/admin/settings

Session admin only. These endpoints manage the database-backed runtime settings registry used by the API and admin UI. The admin UI shows a curated subset of this registry; deployment-sensitive settings such as CORS origins and session-cookie policy are intentionally managed through bootstrap config, this API, or SDK automation. Secret settings are Fernet-encrypted at rest and redacted on read.

Admin UI vs API registry

SurfaceUse it for
/settings → SecurityTrusted proxy ranges, outbound provider URL policy, private-network escape hatches, local webhook policy, and embedding-cache posture
Deployment config or this APICORS origins and session-cookie flags: cors_origins, session_cookie_secure, session_cookie_samesite, and session_cookie_domain. These can lock admins out when changed incorrectly, so they are best handled deliberately during deployment
Other Settings pagesIngestion, queue, retention, webhooks, model defaults, and Turbopuffer search settings
