+Version API
+===========
+
+This API returns the running Synapse version and the Python version
+on which Synapse is being run. 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 /_matrix/client/r0/admin/server_version
+
+including an ``access_token`` of a server admin.
+
+It returns a JSON body like the following:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+ {
+ "server_version": "0.99.2rc1 (b=develop, abcdef123)",
+ "python_version": "3.6.8"

+# CPU affinity mask. Setting this restricts the CPUs on which the
+# process will be scheduled. It is represented as a bitmask, with the
+# lowest order bit corresponding to the first logical CPU and the
+# highest order bit corresponding to the last logical CPU. Not all CPUs
+# may exist on a given system but a mask may specify more CPUs than are
+# present.
+#
+# For example:
+# 0x00000001 is processor #0,
+# 0x00000003 is processors #0 and #1,
+# 0xFFFFFFFF is all processors (#0 through #31).
+#
+# Pinning a Python process to a single CPU is desirable, because Python
+# is inherently single-threaded due to the GIL, and can suffer a
+# 30-40% slowdown due to cache blow-out and thread context switching
+# if the scheduler happens to schedule the underlying threads across
+# different cores. See

+## TLS ##
+
+# PEM-encoded X509 certificate for TLS.
+# This certificate, as of Synapse 1.0, will need to be a valid and verifiable
+# certificate, signed by a recognised Certificate Authority.
+#
+# See 'ACME support' below to enable auto-provisioning this certificate via
+# Let's Encrypt.
+#
+# If supplying your own, be sure to use a `.pem` file that includes the
+# full certificate chain including any intermediate certificates (for
+# instance, if using certbot, use `fullchain.pem` as your certificate,
+# not `cert.pem`).
+#
+#tls_certificate_path: "CONFDIR/SERVERNAME.tls.crt"
+
+# PEM-encoded private key for TLS
+#
+#tls_private_key_path: "CONFDIR/SERVERNAME.tls.key"
+
+# ACME support: This will configure Synapse to request a valid TLS certificate
+# for your configured `server_name` via Let's Encrypt.
+#
+# Note that provisioning a certificate in this way requires port 80 to be
+# routed to Synapse so that it can complete the http-01 ACME challenge.
+# By default, if you enable ACME support, Synapse will attempt to listen on
+# port 80 for incoming http-01 challenges - however, this will likely fail
+# with 'Permission denied' or a similar error.
+#
+# There are a couple of potential solutions to this:
+#
+# * If you already have an Apache, Nginx, or similar listening on port 80,
+# you can configure Synapse to use an alternate port, and have your web
+# server forward the requests. For example, assuming you set 'port: 8009'
+# below, on Apache, you would write:
+#
+# ProxyPass /.well-known/acme-challenge http://localhost:8009/.well-known/acme-challenge
+#
+# * Alternatively, you can use something like `authbind` to give Synapse
+# permission to listen on port 80.
+#
+acme:
+ # ACME support is disabled by default. Uncomment the following line
+ # (and tls_certificate_path and tls_private_key_path above) to enable it.

+ #

+ # The domain that the certificate should be for. Normally this
+ # should be the same as your Matrix domain (i.e., 'server_name'), but,
+ # by putting a file at 'https://<server_name>/.well-known/matrix/server',
+ # you can delegate incoming traffic to another server. If you do that,
+ # you should give the target of the delegation here.
+ #
+ # For example: if your 'server_name' is 'example.com', but
+ # 'https://example.com/.well-known/matrix/server' delegates to
+ # 'matrix.example.com', you should put 'matrix.example.com' here.
+ #
+ # If not set, defaults to your 'server_name'.

+
+# List of allowed TLS fingerprints for this server to publish along
+# with the signing keys for this server. Other matrix servers that
+# make HTTPS requests to this server will check that the TLS
+# certificates returned by this server match one of the fingerprints.
+#
+# Synapse automatically adds the fingerprint of its own certificate
+# to the list. So if federation traffic is handled directly by synapse
+# then no modification to the list is required.
+#
+# If synapse is run behind a load balancer that handles the TLS then it
+# will be necessary to add the fingerprints of the certificates used by
+# the loadbalancers to this list if they are different to the one
+# synapse is using.
+#
+# Homeservers are permitted to cache the list of TLS fingerprints
+# returned in the key responses up to the "valid_until_ts" returned in
+# key. It may be necessary to publish the fingerprints of a new
+# certificate and wait until the "valid_until_ts" of the previous key
+# responses have passed before deploying it.
+#
+# You can calculate a fingerprint from a given TLS listener via:
+# openssl s_client -connect $host:$port < /dev/null 2> /dev/null |
+# openssl x509 -outform DER | openssl sha256 -binary | base64 | tr -d '='
+# or by checking matrix.org/federationtester/api/report?server_name=$host
+#
+#tls_fingerprints: [{"sha256": "<base64_encoded_sha256_fingerprint>"}]
