+<p>This API allows a server administrator to manage the background updates being
+run against the database.</p>
+<h2 id="status"><a class="header" href="#status">Status</a></h2>
+<p>This API gets the current status of the background updates.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>GET /_synapse/admin/v1/background_updates/status
+</code></pre>
+<p>Returning:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+    &quot;enabled&quot;: true,
+    &quot;current_updates&quot;: {
+        &quot;&lt;db_name&gt;&quot;: {
+            &quot;name&quot;: &quot;&lt;background_update_name&gt;&quot;,
+            &quot;total_item_count&quot;: 50,
+            &quot;total_duration_ms&quot;: 10000.0,
+            &quot;average_items_per_ms&quot;: 2.2,
+        },
+    }
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p><code>enabled</code> whether the background updates are enabled or disabled.</p>
+<p><code>db_name</code> the database name (usually Synapse is configured with a single database named 'master').</p>
+<p>For each update:</p>
+<p><code>name</code> the name of the update.
+<code>total_item_count</code> total number of &quot;items&quot; processed (the meaning of 'items' depends on the update in question).
+<code>total_duration_ms</code> how long the background process has been running, not including time spent sleeping.
+<code>average_items_per_ms</code> how many items are processed per millisecond based on an exponential average.</p>
+<h2 id="enabled"><a class="header" href="#enabled">Enabled</a></h2>
+<p>This API allow pausing background updates.</p>
+<p>Background updates should <em>not</em> be paused for significant periods of time, as
+this can affect the performance of Synapse.</p>
+<p><em>Note</em>: This won't persist over restarts.</p>
+<p><em>Note</em>: This won't cancel any update query that is currently running. This is
+usually fine since most queries are short lived, except for <code>CREATE INDEX</code>
+background updates which won't be cancelled once started.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>POST /_synapse/admin/v1/background_updates/enabled
+</code></pre>
+<p>with the following body:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+    &quot;enabled&quot;: false
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p><code>enabled</code> sets whether the background updates are enabled or disabled.</p>
+<p>The API returns the <code>enabled</code> param.</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+    &quot;enabled&quot;: false
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p>There is also a <code>GET</code> version which returns the <code>enabled</code> state.</p>
+<h2 id="run"><a class="header" href="#run">Run</a></h2>
+<p>This API schedules a specific background update to run. The job starts immediately after calling the API.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>POST /_synapse/admin/v1/background_updates/start_job
+</code></pre>
+<p>with the following body:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+    &quot;job_name&quot;: &quot;populate_stats_process_rooms&quot;
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p>The following JSON body parameters are available:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>job_name</code> - A string which job to run. Valid values are:
+<ul>
+<li><code>populate_stats_process_rooms</code> - Recalculate the stats for all rooms.</li>
+<li><code>regenerate_directory</code> - Recalculate the <a href="../../../user_directory.html">user directory</a> if it is stale or out of sync.</li>

+<p>This API allows a server administrator to manage Synapse's federation with other homeservers.</p>
+<p>Note: This API is new, experimental and &quot;subject to change&quot;.</p>
+<h2 id="list-of-destinations"><a class="header" href="#list-of-destinations">List of destinations</a></h2>
+<p>This API gets the current destination retry timing info for all remote servers.</p>
+<p>The list contains all the servers with which the server federates,
+regardless of whether an error occurred or not.
+If an error occurs, it may take up to 20 minutes for the error to be displayed here,
+as a complete retry must have failed.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<p>A standard request with no filtering:</p>
+<pre><code>GET /_synapse/admin/v1/federation/destinations
+</code></pre>
+<p>A response body like the following is returned:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-json">{
+   &quot;destinations&quot;:[
+      {
+         &quot;destination&quot;: &quot;matrix.org&quot;,

+         &quot;last_successful_stream_ordering&quot;: null
+      }
+   ],
+   &quot;total&quot;: 1
+}
+</code></pre>
+<p>To paginate, check for <code>next_token</code> and if present, call the endpoint again
+with <code>from</code> set to the value of <code>next_token</code>. This will return a new page.</p>
+<p>If the endpoint does not return a <code>next_token</code> then there are no more destinations
+to paginate through.</p>
+<p><strong>Parameters</strong></p>
+<p>The following query parameters are available:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>from</code> - Offset in the returned list. Defaults to <code>0</code>.</li>
+<li><code>limit</code> - Maximum amount of destinations to return. Defaults to <code>100</code>.</li>
+<li><code>order_by</code> - The method in which to sort the returned list of destinations.
+Valid values are:
+<ul>
+<li><code>destination</code> - Destinations are ordered alphabetically by remote server name.
+This is the default.</li>
+<li><code>retry_last_ts</code> - Destinations are ordered by time of last retry attempt in ms.</li>
+<li><code>retry_interval</code> - Destinations are ordered by how long until next retry in ms.</li>
+<li><code>failure_ts</code> - Destinations are ordered by when the server started failing in ms.</li>
+<li><code>last_successful_stream_ordering</code> - Destinations are ordered by the stream ordering
+of the most recent successfully-sent PDU.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li><code>dir</code> - Direction of room order. Either <code>f</code> for forwards or <code>b</code> for backwards. Setting
+this value to <code>b</code> will reverse the above sort order. Defaults to <code>f</code>.</li>
+</ul>
+<p><em>Caution:</em> The database only has an index on the column <code>destination</code>.
+This means that if a different sort order is used,
+this can cause a large load on the database, especially for large environments.</p>
+<p><strong>Response</strong></p>
+<p>The following fields are returned in the JSON response body:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>destinations</code> - An array of objects, each containing information about a destination.
+Destination objects contain the following fields:
+<ul>
+<li><code>destination</code> - string - Name of the remote server to federate.</li>
+<li><code>retry_last_ts</code> - integer - The last time Synapse tried and failed to reach the
+remote server, in ms. This is <code>0</code> if the last attempt to communicate with the
+remote server was successful.</li>
+<li><code>retry_interval</code> - integer - How long since the last time Synapse tried to reach
+the remote server before trying again, in ms. This is <code>0</code> if no further retrying occuring.</li>
+<li><code>failure_ts</code> - nullable integer - The first time Synapse tried and failed to reach the
+remote server, in ms. This is <code>null</code> if communication with the remote server has never failed.</li>
+<li><code>last_successful_stream_ordering</code> - nullable integer - The stream ordering of the most
+recent successfully-sent <a href="understanding_synapse_through_grafana_graphs.html#federation">PDU</a>
+to this destination, or <code>null</code> if this information has not been tracked yet.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li><code>next_token</code>: string representing a positive integer - Indication for pagination. See above.</li>

+<h2 id="reset-connection-timeout"><a class="header" href="#reset-connection-timeout">Reset connection timeout</a></h2>
+<p>Synapse makes federation requests to other homeservers. If a federation request fails,
+Synapse will mark the destination homeserver as offline, preventing any future requests
+to that server for a &quot;cooldown&quot; period. This period grows over time if the server
+continues to fail its responses
+(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff">exponential backoff</a>).</p>
+<p>Admins can cancel the cooldown period with this API.</p>
+<p>This API resets the retry timing for a specific remote server and tries to connect to
+the remote server again. It does not wait for the next <code>retry_interval</code>.
+The connection must have previously run into an error and <code>retry_last_ts</code>
+(<a href="#destination-details-api">Destination Details API</a>) must not be equal to <code>0</code>.</p>
+<p>The connection attempt is carried out in the background and can take a while
+even if the API already returns the http status 200.</p>
+<p>The API is:</p>
+<pre><code>POST /_synapse/admin/v1/federation/destinations/&lt;destination&gt;/reset_connection
+
+{}
+</code></pre>
+<p><strong>Parameters</strong></p>
+<p>The following parameters should be set in the URL:</p>

+<h2 id="authenticate-as-a-server-admin"><a class="header" href="#authenticate-as-a-server-admin">Authenticate as a server admin</a></h2>
+<p>Many of the API calls in the admin api will require an <code>access_token</code> for a
+server admin. (Note that a server admin is distinct from a room admin.)</p>
+<p>A user can be marked as a server admin by updating the database directly, e.g.:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-sql">UPDATE users SET admin = 1 WHERE name = '@foo:bar.com';
+</code></pre>
+<p>A new server admin user can also be created using the <code>register_new_matrix_user</code>
+command. This is a script that is distributed as part of synapse. It is possibly
+already on your <code>$PATH</code> depending on how Synapse was installed.</p>
+<p>Finding your user's <code>access_token</code> is client-dependent, but will usually be shown in the client's settings.</p>
+<h2 id="making-an-admin-api-request"><a class="header" href="#making-an-admin-api-request">Making an Admin API request</a></h2>
+<p>For security reasons, we <a href="reverse_proxy.html#synapse-administration-endpoints">recommend</a>
+that the Admin API (<code>/_synapse/admin/...</code>) should be hidden from public view using a
+reverse proxy. This means you should typically query the Admin API from a terminal on
+the machine which runs Synapse.</p>
+<p>Once you have your <code>access_token</code>, you will need to authenticate each request to an Admin API endpoint by
+providing the token as either a query parameter or a request header. To add it as a request header in cURL:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-sh">curl --header &quot;Authorization: Bearer &lt;access_token&gt;&quot; &lt;the_rest_of_your_API_request&gt;
+</code></pre>
+<p>For example, suppose we want to
+<a href="user_admin_api.html#query-user-account">query the account</a> of the user
+<code>@foo:bar.com</code>. We need an admin access token (e.g.
+<code>syt_AjfVef2_L33JNpafeif_0feKJfeaf0CQpoZk</code>), and we need to know which port
+Synapse's <a href="config_documentation.html#listeners"><code>client</code> listener</a> is listening
+on (e.g. <code>8008</code>). Then we can use the following command to request the account
+information from the Admin API.</p>
+<pre><code class="language-sh">curl --header &quot;Authorization: Bearer syt_AjfVef2_L33JNpafeif_0feKJfeaf0CQpoZk&quot; -X GET http://127.0.0.1:8008/_synapse/admin/v2/users/@foo:bar.com
+</code></pre>
+<p>For more details on access tokens in Matrix, please refer to the complete
+<a href="https://matrix.org/docs/spec/client_server/r0.6.1#using-access-tokens">matrix spec documentation</a>.</p>

+<p>This API allows you to manage tokens which can be used to authenticate
+registration requests, as proposed in
+<a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/main/proposals/3231-token-authenticated-registration.md">MSC3231</a>.
+To use it, you will need to enable the <code>registration_requires_token</code> config
+option, and authenticate by providing an <code>access_token</code> for a server admin:
+see <a href="../../usage/administration/admin_api">Admin API</a>.
+Note that this API is still experimental; not all clients may support it yet.</p>
+<h2 id="registration-token-objects"><a class="header" href="#registration-token-objects">Registration token objects</a></h2>
+<p>Most endpoints make use of JSON objects that contain details about tokens.
+These objects have the following fields:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>token</code>: The token which can be used to authenticate registration.</li>
+<li><code>uses_allowed</code>: The number of times the token can be used to complete a
+registration before it becomes invalid.</li>
+<li><code>pending</code>: The number of pending uses the token has. When someone uses
+the token to authenticate themselves, the pending counter is incremented
+so that the token is not used more than the permitted number of times.
+When the person completes registration the pending counter is decremented,
+and the completed counter is incremented.</li>
+<li><code>completed</code>: The number of times the token has been used to successfully
+complete a registration.</li>
+<li><code>expiry_time</code>: The latest time the token is valid. Given as the number of
+milliseconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC (the start of the Unix epoch).
+To convert this into a human-readable form you can remove the milliseconds
+and use the <code>date</code> command. For example, <code>date -d '@1625394937'</code>.</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="list-all-tokens"><a class="header" href="#list-all-tokens">List all tokens</a></h2>
+<p>Lists all tokens and details about them. If the request is successful, the top
+level JSON object will have a <code>registration_tokens</code> key which is an array of
+registration token objects.</p>
+<pre><code>GET /_synapse/admin/v1/registration_tokens
+</code></pre>
+<p>Optional query parameters:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>valid</code>: <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>. If <code>true</code>, only valid tokens are returned.
+If <code>false</code>, only tokens that have expired or have had all uses exhausted are
+returned. If omitted, all tokens are returned regardless of validity.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Example:</p>
+<pre><code>GET /_synapse/admin/v1/registration_tokens
+</code></pre>
+<pre><code>200 OK

+<p>If your server already has an admin account you should use the user admin API to promote other accounts to become admins. See <a href="../../admin_api/user_admin_api.html#Change-whether-a-user-is-a-server-administrator-or-not">User Admin API</a></p>
+<p>If you don't have any admin accounts yet you won't be able to use the admin API so you'll have to edit the database manually. Manually editing the database is generally not recommended so once you have an admin account, use the admin APIs to make further changes.</p>

+<p>Deleting your database is unlikely to make anything better. </p>
+<p>It's easy to make the mistake of thinking that you can start again from a clean slate by dropping your database, but things don't work like that in a federated network: lots of other servers have information about your server.</p>
+<p>For example: other servers might think that you are in a room, your server will think that you are not, and you'll probably be unable to interact with that room in a sensible way ever again.</p>
+<p>In general, there are better solutions to any problem than dropping the database. Come and seek help in https://matrix.to/#/#synapse:matrix.org.</p>
+<p>There are two exceptions when it might be sensible to delete your database and start again:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>You have <em>never</em> joined any rooms which are federated with other servers. For instance, a local deployment which the outside world can't talk to. </li>
+<li>You are changing the <code>server_name</code> in the homeserver configuration. In effect this makes your server a completely new one from the point of view of the network, so in this case it makes sense to start with a clean database.
+(In both cases you probably also want to clear out the media_store.)</li>
+</ul>

+<p>Using the following curl command:</p>
+<pre><code>curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer &lt;access-token&gt;' -X DELETE https://matrix.org/_matrix/client/r0/directory/room/&lt;room-alias&gt;
+</code></pre>
+<p><code>&lt;access-token&gt;</code> - can be obtained in riot by looking in the riot settings, down the bottom is:
+Access Token:&lt;click to reveal&gt; </p>
+<p><code>&lt;room-alias&gt;</code> - the room alias, eg. #my_room:matrix.org this possibly needs to be URL encoded also, for example  %23my_room%3Amatrix.org</p>
+<h2 id="how-can-i-find-the-lines-corresponding-to-a-given-http-request-in-my-homeserver-log"><a class="header" href="#how-can-i-find-the-lines-corresponding-to-a-given-http-request-in-my-homeserver-log">How can I find the lines corresponding to a given HTTP request in my homeserver log?</a></h2>
+<p>Synapse tags each log line according to the HTTP request it is processing. When it finishes processing each request, it logs a line containing the words <code>Processed request: </code>. For example:</p>
+<pre><code>2019-02-14 22:35:08,196 - synapse.access.http.8008 - 302 - INFO - GET-37 - ::1 - 8008 - {@richvdh:localhost} Processed request: 0.173sec/0.001sec (0.002sec, 0.000sec) (0.027sec/0.026sec/2) 687B 200 &quot;GET /_matrix/client/r0/sync HTTP/1.1&quot; &quot;Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36&quot; [0 dbevts]&quot;
+</code></pre>
+<p>Here we can see that the request has been tagged with <code>GET-37</code>. (The tag depends on the method of the HTTP request, so might start with <code>GET-</code>, <code>PUT-</code>, <code>POST-</code>, <code>OPTIONS-</code> or <code>DELETE-</code>.) So to find all lines corresponding to this request, we can do:</p>
+<pre><code>grep 'GET-37' homeserver.log
+</code></pre>
+<p>If you want to paste that output into a github issue or matrix room, please remember to surround it with triple-backticks (```) to make it legible (see https://help.github.com/en/articles/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#quoting-code).</p>

+<p>When generating your Synapse configuration file, you are asked whether you
+would like to report usage statistics to Matrix.org. These statistics
+provide the foundation a glimpse into the number of Synapse homeservers
+participating in the network, as well as statistics such as the number of
+rooms being created and messages being sent. This feature is sometimes
+affectionately called &quot;phone home&quot; stats. Reporting
+<a href="../../configuration/config_documentation.html#report_stats">is optional</a>
+and the reporting endpoint
+<a href="../../configuration/config_documentation.html#report_stats_endpoint">can be configured</a>,
+in case you would like to instead report statistics from a set of homeservers
+to your own infrastructure.</p>
+<p>This documentation aims to define the statistics available and the
+homeserver configuration options that exist to tweak it.</p>
+<h2 id="available-statistics"><a class="header" href="#available-statistics">Available Statistics</a></h2>
+<p>The following statistics are sent to the configured reporting endpoint:</p>
+<table><thead><tr><th>Statistic Name</th><th>Type</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody>
+<tr><td><code>homeserver</code></td><td>string</td><td>The homeserver's server name.</td></tr>
+<tr><td><code>memory_rss</code></td><td>int</td><td>The memory usage of the process (in kilobytes on Unix-based systems, bytes on MacOS).</td></tr>
+<tr><td><code>cpu_average</code></td><td>int</td><td>CPU time in % of a single core (not % of all cores).</td></tr>
+<tr><td><code>server_context</code></td><td>string</td><td>An arbitrary string used to group statistics from a set of homeservers.</td></tr>
+<tr><td><code>timestamp</code></td><td>int</td><td>The current time, represented as the number of seconds since the epoch.</td></tr>
+<tr><td><code>uptime_seconds</code></td><td>int</td><td>The number of seconds since the homeserver was last started.</td></tr>

+<p>As a general rule, I encourage people who want to understand the deepest darkest secrets of the database schema to drop by #synapse-dev:matrix.org and ask questions.</p>
+<p>However, one question that comes up frequently is that of how &quot;state groups&quot; work, and why the <code>state_groups_state</code> table gets so big, so here's an attempt to answer that question.</p>
+<p>We need to be able to relatively quickly calculate the state of a room at any point in that room's history. In other words, we need to know the state of the room at each event in that room. This is done as follows:</p>
+<p>A sequence of events where the state is the same are grouped together into a <code>state_group</code>; the mapping is recorded in <code>event_to_state_groups</code>. (Technically speaking, since a state event usually changes the state in the room, we are recording the state of the room <em>after</em> the given event id: which is to say, to a handwavey simplification, the first event in a state group is normally a state event, and others in the same state group are normally non-state-events.)</p>
+<p><code>state_groups</code> records, for each state group, the id of the room that we're looking at, and also the id of the first event in that group. (I'm not sure if that event id is used much in practice.) </p>
+<p>Now, if we stored all the room state for each <code>state_group</code>, that would be a huge amount of data. Instead, for each state group, we normally store the difference between the state in that group and some other state group, and only occasionally (every 100 state changes or so) record the full state.</p>
+<p>So, most state groups have an entry in <code>state_group_edges</code> (don't ask me why it's not a column in <code>state_groups</code>) which records the previous state group in the room, and <code>state_groups_state</code> records the differences in state since that previous state group.</p>
+<p>A full state group just records the event id for each piece of state in the room at that point.</p>
+<h2 id="known-bugs-with-state-groups"><a class="header" href="#known-bugs-with-state-groups">Known bugs with state groups</a></h2>
+<p>There are various reasons that we can end up creating many more state groups than we need: see https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3364 for more details.</p>
+<h2 id="compression-tool"><a class="header" href="#compression-tool">Compression tool</a></h2>
+<p>There is a tool at https://github.com/matrix-org/rust-synapse-compress-state which can compress the <code>state_groups_state</code> on a room by-room basis (essentially, it reduces the number of &quot;full&quot; state groups). This can result in dramatic reductions of the storage used.</p>

+<p>It is possible to monitor much of the internal state of Synapse using <a href="https://prometheus.io">Prometheus</a> 
+metrics and <a href="https://grafana.com/">Grafana</a>. 
+A guide for configuring Synapse to provide metrics is available <a href="../../metrics-howto.html">here</a> 
+and information on setting up Grafana is <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/master/contrib/grafana">here</a>.
+In this setup, Prometheus will periodically scrape the information Synapse provides and
+store a record of it over time. Grafana is then used as an interface to query and
+present this information through a series of pretty graphs.</p>
+<p>Once you have grafana set up, and assuming you're using <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/master/contrib/grafana/synapse.json">our grafana dashboard template</a>, look for the following graphs when debugging a slow/overloaded Synapse:</p>
+<h2 id="message-event-send-time"><a class="header" href="#message-event-send-time">Message Event Send Time</a></h2>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82239409-a1c8e900-9930-11ea-8081-e4614e0c63f4.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>This, along with the CPU and Memory graphs, is a good way to check the general health of your Synapse instance. It represents how long it takes for a user on your homeserver to send a message.</p>
+<h2 id="transaction-count-and-transaction-duration"><a class="header" href="#transaction-count-and-transaction-duration">Transaction Count and Transaction Duration</a></h2>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82239985-8d392080-9931-11ea-80d0-843ab2f22e1e.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240050-ab068580-9931-11ea-98f1-f94671cbac9a.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>These graphs show the database transactions that are occurring the most frequently, as well as those are that are taking the most amount of time to execute.</p>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240192-e86b1300-9931-11ea-9aac-3e2c9bfa6fdc.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>In the first graph, we can see obvious spikes corresponding to lots of <code>get_user_by_id</code> transactions. This would be useful information to figure out which part of the Synapse codebase is potentially creating a heavy load on the system. However, be sure to cross-reference this with Transaction Duration, which states that <code>get_users_by_id</code> is actually a very quick database transaction and isn't causing as much load as others, like <code>persist_events</code>:</p>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240467-62030100-9932-11ea-8db9-917f2d977fe1.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>Still, it's probably worth investigating why we're getting users from the database that often, and whether it's possible to reduce the amount of queries we make by adjusting our cache factor(s).</p>
+<p>The <code>persist_events</code> transaction is responsible for saving new room events to the Synapse database, so can often show a high transaction duration.</p>
+<h2 id="federation"><a class="header" href="#federation">Federation</a></h2>
+<p>The charts in the &quot;Federation&quot; section show information about incoming and outgoing federation requests. Federation data can be divided into two basic types:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>PDU (Persistent Data Unit) - room events: messages, state events (join/leave), etc. These are permanently stored in the database.</li>
+<li>EDU (Ephemeral Data Unit) - other data, which need not be stored permanently, such as read receipts, typing notifications.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>The &quot;Outgoing EDUs by type&quot; chart shows the EDUs within outgoing federation requests by type: <code>m.device_list_update</code>, <code>m.direct_to_device</code>, <code>m.presence</code>, <code>m.receipt</code>, <code>m.typing</code>.</p>
+<p>If you see a large number of <code>m.presence</code> EDUs and are having trouble with too much CPU load, you can disable <code>presence</code> in the Synapse config. See also <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3971">#3971</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="caches"><a class="header" href="#caches">Caches</a></h2>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240572-8b239180-9932-11ea-96ff-6b5f0e57ebe5.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240666-b8703f80-9932-11ea-86af-9f663988d8da.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>This is quite a useful graph. It shows how many times Synapse attempts to retrieve a piece of data from a cache which the cache did not contain, thus resulting in a call to the database. We can see here that the <code>_get_joined_profile_from_event_id</code> cache is being requested a lot, and often the data we're after is not cached.</p>
+<p>Cross-referencing this with the Eviction Rate graph, which shows that entries are being evicted from <code>_get_joined_profile_from_event_id</code> quite often:</p>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82240766-de95df80-9932-11ea-8c15-5acfc57c48da.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>we should probably consider raising the size of that cache by raising its cache factor (a multiplier value for the size of an individual cache). Information on doing so is available <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/ee421e524478c1ad8d43741c27379499c2f6135c/docs/sample_config.yaml#L608-L642">here</a> (note that the configuration of individual cache factors through the configuration file is available in Synapse v1.14.0+, whereas doing so through environment variables has been supported for a very long time). Note that this will increase Synapse's overall memory usage.</p>
+<h2 id="forward-extremities"><a class="header" href="#forward-extremities">Forward Extremities</a></h2>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82241440-13566680-9934-11ea-8b88-ba468db937ed.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>Forward extremities are the leaf events at the end of a DAG in a room, aka events that have no children. The more that exist in a room, the more <a href="https://spec.matrix.org/v1.1/server-server-api/#room-state-resolution">state resolution</a> that Synapse needs to perform (hint: it's an expensive operation). While Synapse has code to prevent too many of these existing at one time in a room, bugs can sometimes make them crop up again.</p>
+<p>If a room has &gt;10 forward extremities, it's worth checking which room is the culprit and potentially removing them using the SQL queries mentioned in <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/1760">#1760</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="garbage-collection"><a class="header" href="#garbage-collection">Garbage Collection</a></h2>
+<p><img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1342360/82241911-da6ac180-9934-11ea-9a0d-a311fe22acd0.png" alt="image" /></p>
+<p>Large spikes in garbage collection times (bigger than shown here, I'm talking in the 
+multiple seconds range), can cause lots of problems in Synapse performance. It's more an 
+indicator of problems, and a symptom of other problems though, so check other graphs for what might be causing it.</p>
+<h2 id="final-thoughts"><a class="header" href="#final-thoughts">Final Thoughts</a></h2>
+<p>If you're still having performance problems with your Synapse instance and you've 
+tried everything you can, it may just be a lack of system resources. Consider adding
+more CPU and RAM, and make use of <a href="../../workers.html">worker mode</a> 
+to make use of multiple CPU cores / multiple machines for your homeserver.</p>

+<p>This is intended as a guide to the Synapse configuration. The behavior of a Synapse instance can be modified 
+through the many configuration settings documented here — each config option is explained, 
+including what the default is, how to change the default and what sort of behaviour the setting governs.
+Also included is an example configuration for each setting. If you don't want to spend a lot of time 
+thinking about options, the config as generated sets sensible defaults for all values. Do note however that the
+database defaults to SQLite, which is not recommended for production usage. You can read more on this subject 
+<a href="../../setup/installation.html#using-postgresql">here</a>.</p>
+<h2 id="config-conventions"><a class="header" href="#config-conventions">Config Conventions</a></h2>
+<p>Configuration options that take a time period can be set using a number
+followed by a letter. Letters have the following meanings:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>s</code> = second</li>
+<li><code>m</code> = minute</li>
+<li><code>h</code> = hour</li>
+<li><code>d</code> = day</li>
+<li><code>w</code> = week</li>
+<li><code>y</code> = year</li>
+</ul>
+<p>For example, setting <code>redaction_retention_period: 5m</code> would remove redacted
+messages from the database after 5 minutes, rather than 5 months.</p>
+<p>In addition, configuration options referring to size use the following suffixes:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>M</code> = MiB, or 1,048,576 bytes</li>
+<li><code>K</code> = KiB, or 1024 bytes </li>
+</ul>
+<p>For example, setting <code>max_avatar_size: 10M</code> means that Synapse will not accept files larger than 10,485,760 bytes
+for a user avatar. </p>
+<h3 id="yaml"><a class="header" href="#yaml">YAML</a></h3>
+<p>The configuration file is a <a href="https://yaml.org/">YAML</a> file, which means that certain syntax rules
+apply if you want your config file to be read properly. A few helpful things to know:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>#</code> before any option in the config will comment out that setting and either a default (if available) will 
+be applied or Synapse will ignore the setting. Thus, in example #1 below, the setting will be read and
+applied, but in example #2 the setting will not be read and a default will be applied.</p>
+<p>Example #1:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">pid_file: DATADIR/homeserver.pid
+</code></pre>
+<p>Example #2:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">#pid_file: DATADIR/homeserver.pid
+</code></pre>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Indentation matters! The indentation before a setting
+will determine whether a given setting is read as part of another
+setting, or considered on its own. Thus, in example #1, the <code>enabled</code> setting
+is read as a sub-option of the <code>presence</code> setting, and will be properly applied.</p>
+<p>However, the lack of indentation before the <code>enabled</code> setting in example #2 means
+that when reading the config, Synapse will consider both <code>presence</code> and <code>enabled</code> as
+different settings. In this case, <code>presence</code> has no value, and thus a default applied, and <code>enabled</code>
+is an option that Synapse doesn't recognize and thus ignores.</p>
+<p>Example #1: </p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">presence:
+  enabled: false
+</code></pre>
+<p>Example #2:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">presence:
+enabled: false
+</code></pre>
+<p>In this manual, all top-level settings (ones with no indentation) are identified 
+at the beginning of their section (i.e. &quot;### <code>example_setting</code>&quot;) and 
+the sub-options, if any, are identified and listed in the body of the section. 
+In addition, each setting has an example of its usage, with the proper indentation
+shown. </p>

+<h2 id="modules"><a class="header" href="#modules">Modules</a></h2>
+<p>Server admins can expand Synapse's functionality with external modules.</p>
+<p>See <a href="../../modules/index.html">here</a> for more
+documentation on how to configure or create custom modules for Synapse.</p>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="modules-1"><a class="header" href="#modules-1"><code>modules</code></a></h3>
+<p>Use the <code>module</code> sub-option to add modules under this option to extend functionality. 
+The <code>module</code> setting then has a sub-option, <code>config</code>, which can be used to define some configuration
+for the <code>module</code>.</p>
+<p>Defaults to none.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">modules:
+  - module: my_super_module.MySuperClass
+    config:
+      do_thing: true
+  - module: my_other_super_module.SomeClass
+    config: {}
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h2 id="server"><a class="header" href="#server">Server</a></h2>
+<p>Define your homeserver name and other base options.</p>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="server_name"><a class="header" href="#server_name"><code>server_name</code></a></h3>
+<p>This sets the public-facing domain of the server.</p>
+<p>The <code>server_name</code> name will appear at the end of usernames and room addresses
+created on your server. For example if the <code>server_name</code> was example.com,
+usernames on your server would be in the format <code>@user:example.com</code></p>
+<p>In most cases you should avoid using a matrix specific subdomain such as
+matrix.example.com or synapse.example.com as the <code>server_name</code> for the same
+reasons you wouldn't use user@email.example.com as your email address.
+See <a href="../../delegate.html">here</a>
+for information on how to host Synapse on a subdomain while preserving
+a clean <code>server_name</code>.</p>
+<p>The <code>server_name</code> cannot be changed later so it is important to
+configure this correctly before you start Synapse. It should be all
+lowercase and may contain an explicit port.</p>
+<p>There is no default for this option. </p>
+<p>Example configuration #1:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">server_name: matrix.org 
+</code></pre>
+<p>Example configuration #2:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">server_name: localhost:8080
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="pid_file"><a class="header" href="#pid_file"><code>pid_file</code></a></h3>
+<p>When running Synapse as a daemon, the file to store the pid in. Defaults to none.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">pid_file: DATADIR/homeserver.pid
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="web_client_location"><a class="header" href="#web_client_location"><code>web_client_location</code></a></h3>
+<p>The absolute URL to the web client which <code>/</code> will redirect to. Defaults to none. </p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">web_client_location: https://riot.example.com/
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="public_baseurl"><a class="header" href="#public_baseurl"><code>public_baseurl</code></a></h3>
+<p>The public-facing base URL that clients use to access this Homeserver (not
+including _matrix/...). This is the same URL a user might enter into the
+'Custom Homeserver URL' field on their client. If you use Synapse with a
+reverse proxy, this should be the URL to reach Synapse via the proxy.
+Otherwise, it should be the URL to reach Synapse's client HTTP listener (see
+'listeners' below).</p>
+<p>Defaults to <code>https://&lt;server_name&gt;/</code>.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">public_baseurl: https://example.com/
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="serve_server_wellknown"><a class="header" href="#serve_server_wellknown"><code>serve_server_wellknown</code></a></h3>
+<p>By default, other servers will try to reach our server on port 8448, which can
+be inconvenient in some environments.</p>
+<p>Provided <code>https://&lt;server_name&gt;/</code> on port 443 is routed to Synapse, this
+option configures Synapse to serve a file at <code>https://&lt;server_name&gt;/.well-known/matrix/server</code>. 
+This will tell other servers to send traffic to port 443 instead.</p>
+<p>This option currently defaults to false.</p>
+<p>See https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/delegate.html for more
+information.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">serve_server_wellknown: true
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="extra_well_known_client_content"><a class="header" href="#extra_well_known_client_content"><code>extra_well_known_client_content </code></a></h3>
+<p>This option allows server runners to add arbitrary key-value pairs to the <a href="https://spec.matrix.org/latest/client-server-api/#well-known-uri">client-facing <code>.well-known</code> response</a>.
+Note that the <code>public_baseurl</code> config option must be provided for Synapse to serve a response to <code>/.well-known/matrix/client</code> at all.</p>
+<p>If this option is provided, it parses the given yaml to json and 
+serves it on <code>/.well-known/matrix/client</code> endpoint
+alongside the standard properties.</p>
+<p><em>Added in Synapse 1.62.0.</em></p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">extra_well_known_client_content : 
+  option1: value1
+  option2: value2
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="soft_file_limit"><a class="header" href="#soft_file_limit"><code>soft_file_limit</code></a></h3>
+<p>Set the soft limit on the number of file descriptors synapse can use.
+Zero is used to indicate synapse should set the soft limit to the hard limit.
+Defaults to 0. </p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">soft_file_limit: 3
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="presence"><a class="header" href="#presence"><code>presence</code></a></h3>
+<p>Presence tracking allows users to see the state (e.g online/offline)
+of other local and remote users. Set the <code>enabled</code> sub-option to false to<br />
+disable presence tracking on this homeserver. Defaults to true. 
+This option replaces the previous top-level 'use_presence' option.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>

+<h3 id="retention"><a class="header" href="#retention"><code>retention</code></a></h3>
+<p>This option and the associated options determine message retention policy at the
+server level.</p>
+<p>Room admins and mods can define a retention period for their rooms using the
+<code>m.room.retention</code> state event, and server admins can cap this period by setting
+the <code>allowed_lifetime_min</code> and <code>allowed_lifetime_max</code> config options.</p>
+<p>If this feature is enabled, Synapse will regularly look for and purge events
+which are older than the room's maximum retention period. Synapse will also
+filter events received over federation so that events that should have been 
+purged are ignored and not stored again. </p>
+<p>The message retention policies feature is disabled by default.</p>
+<p>This setting has the following sub-options:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>default_policy</code>: Default retention policy. If set, Synapse will apply it to rooms that lack the
+'m.room.retention' state event. This option is further specified by the 
+<code>min_lifetime</code> and <code>max_lifetime</code> sub-options associated with it. Note that the 
+value of <code>min_lifetime</code> doesn't matter much because Synapse doesn't take it into account yet. </p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>allowed_lifetime_min</code> and <code>allowed_lifetime_max</code>: Retention policy limits. If 
+set, and the state of a room contains a <code>m.room.retention</code> event in its state 
+which contains a <code>min_lifetime</code> or a <code>max_lifetime</code> that's out of these bounds,
+Synapse will cap the room's policy to these limits when running purge jobs.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>purge_jobs</code> and the associated <code>shortest_max_lifetime</code> and <code>longest_max_lifetime</code> sub-options:
+Server admins can define the settings of the background jobs purging the
+events whose lifetime has expired under the <code>purge_jobs</code> section.</p>
+<p>If no configuration is provided for this option, a single job will be set up to delete
+expired events in every room daily.</p>
+<p>Each job's configuration defines which range of message lifetimes the job
+takes care of. For example, if <code>shortest_max_lifetime</code> is '2d' and
+<code>longest_max_lifetime</code> is '3d', the job will handle purging expired events in
+rooms whose state defines a <code>max_lifetime</code> that's both higher than 2 days, and
+lower than or equal to 3 days. Both the minimum and the maximum value of a
+range are optional, e.g. a job with no <code>shortest_max_lifetime</code> and a
+<code>longest_max_lifetime</code> of '3d' will handle every room with a retention policy
+whose <code>max_lifetime</code> is lower than or equal to three days.</p>
+<p>The rationale for this per-job configuration is that some rooms might have a
+retention policy with a low <code>max_lifetime</code>, where history needs to be purged
+of outdated messages on a more frequent basis than for the rest of the rooms
+(e.g. every 12h), but not want that purge to be performed by a job that's
+iterating over every room it knows, which could be heavy on the server.</p>
+<p>If any purge job is configured, it is strongly recommended to have at least
+a single job with neither <code>shortest_max_lifetime</code> nor <code>longest_max_lifetime</code>
+set, or one job without <code>shortest_max_lifetime</code> and one job without
+<code>longest_max_lifetime</code> set. Otherwise some rooms might be ignored, even if
+<code>allowed_lifetime_min</code> and <code>allowed_lifetime_max</code> are set, because capping a
+room's policy to these values is done after the policies are retrieved from
+Synapse's database (which is done using the range specified in a purge job's
+configuration).</p>

+number of entries that can be stored.</p>
+<p>Caching can be configured through the following sub-options:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>global_factor</code>: Controls the global cache factor, which is the default cache factor
+for all caches if a specific factor for that cache is not otherwise
+set.</p>
+<p>This can also be set by the <code>SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR</code> environment
+variable. Setting by environment variable takes priority over
+setting through the config file.</p>
+<p>Defaults to 0.5, which will halve the size of all caches.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>per_cache_factors</code>: A dictionary of cache name to cache factor for that individual
+cache. Overrides the global cache factor for a given cache.</p>
+<p>These can also be set through environment variables comprised

+takes priority over setting through the config file.
+Ex. <code>SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR_GET_USERS_WHO_SHARE_ROOM_WITH_USER=2.0</code></p>
+<p>Some caches have '*' and other characters that are not
+alphanumeric or underscores. These caches can be named with or

+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>cache_entry_ttl</code>: If <code>expire_caches</code> is enabled, this flag controls how long an entry can
+be in a cache without having been accessed before being evicted.
+Defaults to 30m. </p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>sync_response_cache_duration</code>: Controls how long the results of a /sync request are

+Please see the <a href="#config-conventions">Config Conventions</a> for information on how to specify memory size and cache expiry
+durations.</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>max_cache_memory_usage</code> sets a ceiling on how much memory the cache can use before caches begin to be continuously evicted.
+They will continue to be evicted until the memory usage drops below the <code>target_memory_usage</code>, set in
+the setting below, or until the <code>min_cache_ttl</code> is hit. There is no default value for this option.</li>
+<li><code>target_memory_usage</code> sets a rough target for the desired memory usage of the caches. There is no default value
+for this option.</li>
+<li><code>min_cache_ttl</code> sets a limit under which newer cache entries are not evicted and is only applied when
+caches are actively being evicted/<code>max_cache_memory_usage</code> has been exceeded. This is to protect hot caches
+from being emptied while Synapse is evicting due to memory. There is no default value for this option. </li>

+<h3 id="databases"><a class="header" href="#databases"><code>databases</code></a></h3>
+<p>The <code>databases</code> option allows specifying a mapping between certain database tables and
+database host details, spreading the load of a single Synapse instance across multiple
+database backends. This is often referred to as &quot;database sharding&quot;. This option is only
+supported for PostgreSQL database backends.</p>
+<p><strong>Important note:</strong> This is a supported option, but is not currently used in production by the
+Matrix.org Foundation. Proceed with caution and always make backups.</p>
+<p><code>databases</code> is a dictionary of arbitrarily-named database entries. Each entry is equivalent
+to the value of the <code>database</code> homeserver config option (see above), with the addition of
+a <code>data_stores</code> key. <code>data_stores</code> is an array of strings that specifies the data store(s)
+(a defined label for a set of tables) that should be stored on the associated database
+backend entry.</p>
+<p>The currently defined values for <code>data_stores</code> are:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>&quot;state&quot;</code>: Database that relates to state groups will be stored in this database.</p>
+<p>Specifically, that means the following tables:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>state_groups</code></li>
+<li><code>state_group_edges</code></li>
+<li><code>state_groups_state</code></li>
+</ul>
+<p>And the following sequences:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>state_groups_seq_id</code></li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>&quot;main&quot;</code>: All other database tables and sequences.</p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>All databases will end up with additional tables used for tracking database schema migrations
+and any pending background updates. Synapse will create these automatically on startup when checking for
+and/or performing database schema migrations.</p>
+<p>To migrate an existing database configuration (e.g. all tables on a single database) to a different
+configuration (e.g. the &quot;main&quot; data store on one database, and &quot;state&quot; on another), do the following:</p>
+<ol>
+<li>
+<p>Take a backup of your existing database. Things can and do go wrong and database corruption is no joke!</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Ensure all pending database migrations have been applied and background updates have run. The simplest
+way to do this is to use the <code>update_synapse_database</code> script supplied with your Synapse installation.</p>
+<pre><code class="language-sh">update_synapse_database --database-config homeserver.yaml --run-background-updates
+</code></pre>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Copy over the necessary tables and sequences from one database to the other. Tables relating to database
+migrations, schemas, schema versions and background updates should <strong>not</strong> be copied.</p>
+<p>As an example, say that you'd like to split out the &quot;state&quot; data store from an existing database which
+currently contains all data stores.</p>
+<p>Simply copy the tables and sequences defined above for the &quot;state&quot; datastore from the existing database
+to the secondary database. As noted above, additional tables will be created in the secondary database
+when Synapse is started.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Modify/create the <code>databases</code> option in your <code>homeserver.yaml</code> to match the desired database configuration.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Start Synapse. Check that it starts up successfully and that things generally seem to be working.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Drop the old tables that were copied in step 3.</p>
+</li>
+</ol>
+<p>Only one of the options <code>database</code> or <code>databases</code> may be specified in your config, but not both.</p>

+entry that points to a private IP address and circumvent the blacklist.
+This is more useful if you know there is an entire shape of URL that

+applied to that component of URLs, unless they start with a ^ in which
+case they are treated as a regular expression match.  If all the

+<p>The trusted servers to download signing keys from.</p>
+<p>When we need to fetch a signing key, each server is tried in parallel.</p>
+<p>Normally, the connection to the key server is validated via TLS certificates.
+Additional security can be provided by configuring a <code>verify key</code>, which
+will make synapse check that the response is signed by that key.</p>
+<p>This setting supercedes an older setting named <code>perspectives</code>. The old format
+is still supported for backwards-compatibility, but it is deprecated.</p>
+<p><code>trusted_key_servers</code> defaults to matrix.org, but using it will generate a
+warning on start-up. To suppress this warning, set
+<code>suppress_key_server_warning</code> to true.</p>
+<p>Options for each entry in the list include:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>server_name</code>: the name of the server. Required.</li>
+<li><code>verify_keys</code>: an optional map from key id to base64-encoded public key.
+If specified, we will check that the response is signed by at least
+one of the given keys.</li>
+<li><code>accept_keys_insecurely</code>: a boolean. Normally, if <code>verify_keys</code> is unset,
+and <code>federation_verify_certificates</code> is not <code>true</code>, synapse will refuse 
+to start, because this would allow anyone who can spoof DNS responses
+to masquerade as the trusted key server. If you know what you are doing
+and are sure that your network environment provides a secure connection
+to the key server, you can set this to <code>true</code> to override this behaviour.</li>

+<h3 id="saml2_config"><a class="header" href="#saml2_config"><code>saml2_config</code></a></h3>
+<p>Enable SAML2 for registration and login. Uses pysaml2. To learn more about pysaml and
+to find a full list options for configuring pysaml, read the docs <a href="https://pysaml2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/">here</a>.</p>
+<p>At least one of <code>sp_config</code> or <code>config_path</code> must be set in this section to
+enable SAML login. You can either put your entire pysaml config inline using the <code>sp_config</code>
+option, or you can specify a path to a psyaml config file with the sub-option <code>config_path</code>.
+This setting has the following sub-options:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>sp_config</code>: the configuration for the pysaml2 Service Provider. See pysaml2 docs for format of config.
+Default values will be used for the <code>entityid</code> and <code>service</code> settings,
+so it is not normally necessary to specify them unless you need to
+override them. Here are a few useful sub-options for configuring pysaml:
+<ul>
+<li><code>metadata</code>: Point this to the IdP's metadata. You must provide either a local
+file via the <code>local</code> attribute or (preferably) a URL via the
+<code>remote</code> attribute.</li>
+<li><code>accepted_time_diff: 3</code>: Allowed clock difference in seconds between the homeserver and IdP.
+Defaults to 0.</li>
+<li><code>service</code>: By default, the user has to go to our login page first. If you'd like
+to allow IdP-initiated login, set <code>allow_unsolicited</code> to true under <code>sp</code> in the <code>service</code>
+section.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li><code>config_path</code>: specify a separate pysaml2 configuration file thusly: 
+<code>config_path: &quot;CONFDIR/sp_conf.py&quot;</code></li>
+<li><code>saml_session_lifetime</code>: The lifetime of a SAML session. This defines how long a user has to
+complete the authentication process, if <code>allow_unsolicited</code> is unset. The default is 15 minutes.</li>
+<li><code>user_mapping_provider</code>: Using this option, an external module can be provided as a 
+custom solution to mapping attributes returned from a saml provider onto a matrix user. The 
+<code>user_mapping_provider</code> has the following attributes:
+<ul>
+<li><code>module</code>: The custom module's class. </li>
+<li><code>config</code>: Custom configuration values for the module. Use the values provided in the 
+example if you are using the built-in user_mapping_provider, or provide your own
+config values for a custom class if you are using one. This section will be passed as a Python
+dictionary to the module's <code>parse_config</code> method. The built-in provider takes the following two
+options:
+<ul>
+<li><code>mxid_source_attribute</code>: The SAML attribute (after mapping via the attribute maps) to use
+to derive the Matrix ID from. It is 'uid' by default. Note: This used to be configured by the
+<code>saml2_config.mxid_source_attribute option</code>. If that is still defined, its value will be used instead.</li>
+<li><code>mxid_mapping</code>: The mapping system to use for mapping the saml attribute onto a
+matrix ID. Options include: <code>hexencode</code> (which maps unpermitted characters to '=xx')
+and <code>dotreplace</code> (which replaces unpermitted characters with '.').
+The default is <code>hexencode</code>. Note: This used to be configured by the
+<code>saml2_config.mxid_mapping option</code>. If that is still defined, its value will be used instead.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li><code>grandfathered_mxid_source_attribute</code>: In previous versions of synapse, the mapping from SAML attribute to
+MXID was always calculated dynamically rather than stored in a table. For backwards- compatibility, we will look for <code>user_ids</code>
+matching such a pattern before creating a new account. This setting controls the SAML attribute which will be used for this
+backwards-compatibility lookup. Typically it should be 'uid', but if the attribute maps are changed, it may be necessary to change it.
+The default is 'uid'. </li>
+<li><code>attribute_requirements</code>: It is possible to configure Synapse to only allow logins if SAML attributes
+match particular values. The requirements can be listed under
+<code>attribute_requirements</code> as shown in the example. All of the listed attributes must
+match for the login to be permitted.</li>
+<li><code>idp_entityid</code>: If the metadata XML contains multiple IdP entities then the <code>idp_entityid</code>
+option must be set to the entity to redirect users to.
+Most deployments only have a single IdP entity and so should omit this option.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Once SAML support is enabled, a metadata file will be exposed at
+<code>https://&lt;server&gt;:&lt;port&gt;/_synapse/client/saml2/metadata.xml</code>, which you may be able to
+use to configure your SAML IdP with. Alternatively, you can manually configure
+the IdP to use an ACS location of
+<code>https://&lt;server&gt;:&lt;port&gt;/_synapse/client/saml2/authn_response</code>.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">saml2_config:

+<p>Options for each entry include:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>idp_id</code>: a unique identifier for this identity provider. Used internally

+userinfo endpoint.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>allow_existing_users</code>: set to true to allow a user logging in via OIDC to

+template). This template can use the <code>localpart_from_email</code> filter.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>confirm_localpart</code>: Whether to prompt the user to validate (or
+change) the generated localpart (see the documentation for the

+<ul>
+<li>
+<p><code>smtp_host</code>: The hostname of the outgoing SMTP server to use. Defaults to 'localhost'.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>smtp_port</code>: The port on the mail server for outgoing SMTP. Defaults to 465 if <code>force_tls</code> is true, else 25.</p>
+<p><em>Changed in Synapse 1.64.0:</em> the default port is now aware of <code>force_tls</code>.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>smtp_user</code> and <code>smtp_pass</code>: Username/password for authentication to the SMTP server. By default, no
+authentication is attempted.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>force_tls</code>: By default, Synapse connects over plain text and then optionally upgrades
+to TLS via STARTTLS. If this option is set to true, TLS is used from the start (Implicit TLS),
+and the option <code>require_transport_security</code> is ignored.
+It is recommended to enable this if supported by your mail server.</p>
+<p><em>New in Synapse 1.64.0.</em></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>require_transport_security</code>: Set to true to require TLS transport security for SMTP.
+By default, Synapse will connect over plain text, and will then switch to
+TLS via STARTTLS <em>if the SMTP server supports it</em>. If this option is set,
+Synapse will refuse to connect unless the server supports STARTTLS.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>enable_tls</code>: By default, if the server supports TLS, it will be used, and the server
+must present a certificate that is valid for 'smtp_host'. If this option
+is set to false, TLS will not be used.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>notif_from</code>: defines the &quot;From&quot; address to use when sending emails.
+It must be set if email sending is enabled. The placeholder '%(app)s' will be replaced by the application name,
+which is normally set in <code>app_name</code>, but may be overridden by the
+Matrix client application. Note that the placeholder must be written '%(app)s', including the
+trailing 's'.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>app_name</code>: <code>app_name</code> defines the default value for '%(app)s' in <code>notif_from</code> and email

+<p><code>notif_for_new_users</code>: Set to false to disable automatic subscription to email
+notifications for new users. Enabled by default.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>client_base_url</code>: Custom URL for client links within the email notifications. By default
+links will be based on &quot;https://matrix.to&quot;. (This setting used to be called <code>riot_base_url</code>;
+the old name is still supported for backwards-compatibility but is now deprecated.)</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>validation_token_lifetime</code>: Configures the time that a validation email will expire after sending.
+Defaults to 1h.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>invite_client_location</code>: The web client location to direct users to during an invite. This is passed
+to the identity server as the <code>org.matrix.web_client_location</code> key. Defaults
+to unset, giving no guidance to the identity server.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p><code>subjects</code>: Subjects to use when sending emails from Synapse. The placeholder '%(app)s' will
+be replaced with the value of the <code>app_name</code> setting, or by a value dictated by the Matrix client application.
+In addition, each subject can use the following placeholders: '%(person)s', which will be replaced by the displayname
+of the user(s) that sent the message(s), e.g. &quot;Alice and Bob&quot;, and '%(room)s', which will be replaced by the name of the room the
+message(s) have been sent to, e.g. &quot;My super room&quot;. In addition, emails related to account administration will
+can use the '%(server_name)s' placeholder, which will be replaced by the value of the
+<code>server_name</code> setting in your Synapse configuration.</p>
+<p>Here is a list of subjects for notification emails that can be set: </p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>message_from_person_in_room</code>: Subject to use to notify about one message from one or more user(s) in a

+<li><code>include_content</code>: Clients requesting push notifications can either have the body of
+the message sent in the notification poke along with other details
+like the sender, or just the event ID and room ID (<code>event_id_only</code>).
+If clients choose the to have the body sent, this option controls whether the
+notification request includes the content of the event (other details
+like the sender are still included). If <code>event_id_only</code> is enabled, it
+has no effect.
+For modern android devices the notification content will still appear
+because it is loaded by the app. iPhone, however will send a
+notification saying only that a message arrived and who it came from.
+Defaults to true. Set to false to only include the event ID and room ID in push notification payloads.</li>
+<li><code>group_unread_count_by_room: false</code>: When a push notification is received, an unread count is also sent.
+This number can either be calculated as the number of unread messages  for the user, or the number of <em>rooms</em> the 
+user has unread messages in. Defaults to true, meaning push clients will see the number of
+rooms with unread messages in them. Set to false to instead send the number

+<p>The <code>default_power_level_content_override</code> option controls the default power
+levels for rooms.</p>
+<p>Useful if you know that your users need special permissions in rooms
+that they create (e.g. to send particular types of state events without
+needing an elevated power level).  This takes the same shape as the
+<code>power_level_content_override</code> parameter in the /createRoom API, but
+is applied before that parameter.</p>
+<p>Note that each key provided inside a preset (for example <code>events</code> in the example
+below) will overwrite all existing defaults inside that key. So in the example
+below, newly-created private_chat rooms will have no rules for any event types
+except <code>com.example.foo</code>.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">default_power_level_content_override:
+   private_chat: { &quot;events&quot;: { &quot;com.example.foo&quot; : 0 } }
+   trusted_private_chat: null
+   public_chat: null

+<p>Configuration options related to Opentracing support.</p>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="opentracing-1"><a class="header" href="#opentracing-1"><code>opentracing</code></a></h3>
+<p>These settings enable and configure opentracing, which implements distributed tracing.
+This allows you to observe the causal chains of events across servers
+including requests, key lookups etc., across any server running
+synapse or any other services which support opentracing
+(specifically those implemented with Jaeger).</p>
+<p>Sub-options include:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>enabled</code>: whether tracing is enabled. Set to true to enable. Disabled by default.</li>
+<li><code>homeserver_whitelist</code>: The list of homeservers we wish to send and receive span contexts and span baggage.
+See <a href="../../opentracing.html">here</a> for more. 
+This is a list of regexes which are matched against the <code>server_name</code> of the homeserver.
+By default, it is empty, so no servers are matched.</li>
+<li><code>force_tracing_for_users</code>: # A list of the matrix IDs of users whose requests will always be traced,
+even if the tracing system would otherwise drop the traces due to probabilistic sampling.
+By default, the list is empty.</li>
+<li><code>jaeger_config</code>: Jaeger can be configured to sample traces at different rates.
+All configuration options provided by Jaeger can be set here. Jaeger's configuration is 
+mostly related to trace sampling which is documented <a href="https://www.jaegertracing.io/docs/latest/sampling/">here</a>.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">opentracing:
+    enabled: true
+    homeserver_whitelist:
+      - &quot;.*&quot;
+    force_tracing_for_users:
+      - &quot;@user1:server_name&quot;

+<p>Configuration options related to workers.</p>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="send_federation"><a class="header" href="#send_federation"><code>send_federation</code></a></h3>
+<p>Controls sending of outbound federation transactions on the main process.
+Set to false if using a federation sender worker. Defaults to true. </p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">send_federation: false
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="federation_sender_instances"><a class="header" href="#federation_sender_instances"><code>federation_sender_instances</code></a></h3>
+<p>It is possible to run multiple federation sender workers, in which case the
+work is balanced across them. Use this setting to list the senders. </p>
+<p>This configuration setting must be shared between all federation sender workers, and if
+changed all federation sender workers must be stopped at the same time and then
+started, to ensure that all instances are running with the same config (otherwise
+events may be dropped). </p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">federation_sender_instances:
+  - federation_sender1
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="instance_map"><a class="header" href="#instance_map"><code>instance_map</code></a></h3>
+<p>When using workers this should be a map from worker name to the
+HTTP replication listener of the worker, if configured. </p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">instance_map:
+  worker1:
+    host: localhost
+    port: 8034
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="stream_writers"><a class="header" href="#stream_writers"><code>stream_writers</code></a></h3>
+<p>Experimental: When using workers you can define which workers should
+handle event persistence and typing notifications. Any worker
+specified here must also be in the <code>instance_map</code>.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">stream_writers:
+  events: worker1
+  typing: worker1
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="run_background_tasks_on"><a class="header" href="#run_background_tasks_on"><code>run_background_tasks_on</code></a></h3>
+<p>The worker that is used to run background tasks (e.g. cleaning up expired
+data). If not provided this defaults to the main process.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">run_background_tasks_on: worker1
+</code></pre>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="worker_replication_secret"><a class="header" href="#worker_replication_secret"><code>worker_replication_secret</code></a></h3>
+<p>A shared secret used by the replication APIs to authenticate HTTP requests
+from workers.</p>
+<p>By default this is unused and traffic is not authenticated.</p>
+<p>Example configuration:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">worker_replication_secret: &quot;secret_secret&quot;
+</code></pre>
+<h3 id="redis"><a class="header" href="#redis"><code>redis</code></a></h3>
+<p>Configuration for Redis when using workers. This <em>must</em> be enabled when
+using workers (unless using old style direct TCP configuration).
+This setting has the following sub-options:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>enabled</code>: whether to use Redis support. Defaults to false. </li>
+<li><code>host</code> and <code>port</code>: Optional host and port to use to connect to redis. Defaults to
+localhost and 6379</li>
+<li><code>password</code>: Optional password if configured on the Redis instance.</li>

+<p>Configuration settings related to background updates. </p>
+<hr />
+<h3 id="background_updates"><a class="header" href="#background_updates"><code>background_updates</code></a></h3>
+<p>Background updates are database updates that are run in the background in batches.
+The duration, minimum batch size, default batch size, whether to sleep between batches and if so, how long to
+sleep can all be configured. This is helpful to speed up or slow down the updates.
+This setting has the following sub-options:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>background_update_duration_ms</code>: How long in milliseconds to run a batch of background updates for. Defaults to 100. 
+Set a different time to change the default.</li>
+<li><code>sleep_enabled</code>: Whether to sleep between updates. Defaults to true. Set to false to change the default.</li>
+<li><code>sleep_duration_ms</code>: If sleeping between updates, how long in milliseconds to sleep for. Defaults to 1000.

+<p>Note that a default logging configuration (shown below) is created automatically alongside
+the homeserver config when following the <a href="../../setup/installation.html">installation instructions</a>.
+It should be named <code>&lt;SERVERNAME&gt;.log.config</code> by default.</p>

+                        <h1 id="refresh-tokens"><a class="header" href="#refresh-tokens">Refresh Tokens</a></h1>
+<p>Synapse supports refresh tokens since version 1.49 (some earlier versions had support for an earlier, experimental draft of <a href="https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-doc/blob/main/proposals/2918-refreshtokens.md#msc2918-refresh-tokens">MSC2918</a> which is not compatible).</p>
+<h2 id="background-and-motivation"><a class="header" href="#background-and-motivation">Background and motivation</a></h2>
+<p>Synapse users' sessions are identified by <strong>access tokens</strong>; access tokens are
+issued to users on login. Each session gets a unique access token which identifies
+it; the access token must be kept secret as it grants access to the user's account.</p>
+<p>Traditionally, these access tokens were eternally valid (at least until the user
+explicitly chose to log out).</p>
+<p>In some cases, it may be desirable for these access tokens to expire so that the
+potential damage caused by leaking an access token is reduced.
+On the other hand, forcing a user to re-authenticate (log in again) often might
+be too much of an inconvenience.</p>
+<p><strong>Refresh tokens</strong> are a mechanism to avoid some of this inconvenience whilst
+still getting most of the benefits of short access token lifetimes.
+Refresh tokens are also a concept present in OAuth 2 — further reading is available
+<a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6749#section-1.5">here</a>.</p>
+<p>When refresh tokens are in use, both an access token and a refresh token will be
+issued to users on login. The access token will expire after a predetermined amount
+of time, but otherwise works in the same way as before. When the access token is
+close to expiring (or has expired), the user's client should present the homeserver
+(Synapse) with the refresh token.</p>
+<p>The homeserver will then generate a new access token and refresh token for the user
+and return them. The old refresh token is invalidated and can not be used again*.</p>
+<p>Finally, refresh tokens also make it possible for sessions to be logged out if they
+are inactive for too long, before the session naturally ends; see the configuration
+guide below.</p>
+<p>*To prevent issues if clients lose connection half-way through refreshing a token,
+the refresh token is only invalidated once the new access token has been used at
+least once. For all intents and purposes, the above simplification is sufficient.</p>
+<h2 id="caveats"><a class="header" href="#caveats">Caveats</a></h2>

+<li>If a third party gets both your access token and refresh token, they will be able to
+continue to enjoy access to your session.
+<ul>
+<li>This is still an improvement because you (the user) will notice when <em>your</em>
+session expires and you're not able to use your refresh token.
+That would be a giveaway that someone else has compromised your session.
+You would be able to log in again and terminate that session.
+Previously (with long-lived access tokens), a third party that has your access
+token could go undetected for a very long time.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>Clients need to implement support for refresh tokens in order for them to be a
+useful mechanism.
+<ul>
+<li>It is up to homeserver administrators if they want to issue long-lived access
+tokens to clients not implementing refresh tokens.
+<ul>
+<li>For compatibility, it is likely that they should, at least until client support
+is widespread.
+<ul>
+<li>Users with clients that support refresh tokens will still benefit from the
+added security; it's not possible to downgrade a session to using long-lived
+access tokens so this effectively gives users the choice.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+<li>In a closed environment where all users use known clients, this may not be
+an issue as the homeserver administrator can know if the clients have refresh
+token support. In that case, the non-refreshable access token lifetime
+may be set to a short duration so that a similar level of security is provided.</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="configuration-guide"><a class="header" href="#configuration-guide">Configuration Guide</a></h2>
+<p>The following configuration options, in the <code>registration</code> section, are related:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>session_lifetime</code>: maximum length of a session, even if it's refreshed.
+In other words, the client must log in again after this time period.
+In most cases, this can be unset (infinite) or set to a long time (years or months).</li>
+<li><code>refreshable_access_token_lifetime</code>: lifetime of access tokens that are created
+by clients supporting refresh tokens.
+This should be short; a good value might be 5 minutes (<code>5m</code>).</li>
+<li><code>nonrefreshable_access_token_lifetime</code>: lifetime of access tokens that are created
+by clients which don't support refresh tokens.
+Make this short if you want to effectively force use of refresh tokens.
+Make this long if you don't want to inconvenience users of clients which don't
+support refresh tokens (by forcing them to frequently re-authenticate using
+login credentials).</li>
+<li><code>refresh_token_lifetime</code>: lifetime of refresh tokens.
+In other words, the client must refresh within this time period to maintain its session.
+Unless you want to log inactive sessions out, it is often fine to use a long
+value here or even leave it unset (infinite).
+Beware that making it too short will inconvenience clients that do not connect
+very often, including mobile clients and clients of infrequent users (by making
+it more difficult for them to refresh in time, which may force them to need to
+re-authenticate using login credentials).</li>
+</ul>
+<p><strong>Note:</strong> All four options above only apply when tokens are created (by logging in or refreshing).
+Changes to these settings do not apply retroactively.</p>
+<h3 id="using-refresh-token-expiry-to-log-out-inactive-sessions"><a class="header" href="#using-refresh-token-expiry-to-log-out-inactive-sessions">Using refresh token expiry to log out inactive sessions</a></h3>
+<p>If you'd like to force sessions to be logged out upon inactivity, you can enable
+refreshable access token expiry and refresh token expiry.</p>
+<p>This works because a client must refresh at least once within a period of
+<code>refresh_token_lifetime</code> in order to maintain valid credentials to access the
+account.</p>
+<p>(It's suggested that <code>refresh_token_lifetime</code> should be longer than
+<code>refreshable_access_token_lifetime</code> and this section assumes that to be the case
+for simplicity.)</p>
+<p>Note: this will only affect sessions using refresh tokens. You may wish to
+set a short <code>nonrefreshable_access_token_lifetime</code> to prevent this being bypassed
+by clients that do not support refresh tokens.</p>
+<h4 id="choosing-values-that-guarantee-permitting-some-inactivity"><a class="header" href="#choosing-values-that-guarantee-permitting-some-inactivity">Choosing values that guarantee permitting some inactivity</a></h4>
+<p>It may be desirable to permit some short periods of inactivity, for example to
+accommodate brief outages in client connectivity.</p>
+<p>The following model aims to provide guidance for choosing <code>refresh_token_lifetime</code>
+and <code>refreshable_access_token_lifetime</code> to satisfy requirements of the form:</p>
+<ol>
+<li>inactivity longer than <code>L</code> <strong>MUST</strong> cause the session to be logged out; and</li>
+<li>inactivity shorter than <code>S</code> <strong>MUST NOT</strong> cause the session to be logged out.</li>
+</ol>
+<p>This model makes the weakest assumption that all active clients will refresh as
+needed to maintain an active access token, but no sooner.
+<em>In reality, clients may refresh more often than this model assumes, but the
+above requirements will still hold.</em></p>
+<p>To satisfy the above model,</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>refresh_token_lifetime</code> should be set to <code>L</code>; and</li>
+<li><code>refreshable_access_token_lifetime</code> should be set to <code>L - S</code>.</li>
+</ul>
