# /api/akasha (dashboard)

Source-derived dashboard endpoint contract, authentication, request validation, responses, and errors.

Source: https://docs.minds.sh/docs/api/platform/reference/dashboard--api-akasha



This is the **dashboard** service route. Its origin and authentication are described in [Platform API overview](/docs/api/platform) and [Authentication](/docs/api/platform/authentication). A path shared by another service is a different endpoint.

## Authentication and access [#authentication-and-access]

Dashboard session cookie; the proxy resolves the active authorized instance and supplies a capability token upstream. Incoming API keys are not a dashboard sign-in mechanism.

## Method behavior [#method-behavior]

The handler excerpt preserves field validation, response envelopes, cookie changes, and exception branches. Values returned by service helpers retain their named response type above; for passthrough routes, the upstream response is authoritative.

export async function GET(request: NextRequest) {
  return handleAkashaRequest(request, pathFromRewrite(request));
