Use Redpanda’s API reference documentation to learn about and interact with API endpoints:

-   [Schema Registry API Reference](https://docs.redpanda.com/api/doc/schema-registry/)

    Manage schemas within a Redpanda cluster. See also: [Schema Registry documentation](https://docs.redpanda.com/streaming/25.3/manage/schema-reg/).

-   [HTTP Proxy API Reference](https://docs.redpanda.com/api/doc/http-proxy/)

    HTTP Proxy is an HTTP server that exposes operations you can perform directly on a Redpanda cluster. Use the Redpanda HTTP Proxy API to perform a subset of actions that are also available through the Kafka API, but using simpler REST operations. See also: [Use Redpanda with the HTTP Proxy API](https://docs.redpanda.com/streaming/25.3/develop/http-proxy/).

-   Admin API Reference

    Manage components of a Redpanda cluster, such as individual brokers and partition leadership. The Redpanda Admin API also allows you to perform operations that are specific to Redpanda Streaming and cannot be done using the standard Kafka API. See also: [Manage Redpanda using the Admin API](https://docs.redpanda.com/streaming/25.3/manage/use-admin-api/).

    -   [Admin API (legacy)](https://docs.redpanda.com/api/doc/admin/) endpoints are available on all supported versions of Redpanda. Select "v1" in the version selector to view these endpoints.

    -   [Admin API (ConnectRPC)](https://docs.redpanda.com/api/doc/admin/v2) endpoints are available on Redpanda version 25.3 and later. These endpoints provide access to new functionality introduced starting in Redpanda v25.3. Select "v2" in the version selector to view these endpoints.
