REST API

LightBurn's REST API provides a way to communicate betwen LightBurn and other applications. The API is intended to allow users and developers to create integrations and improve interoperability with other software for advanced workflows, automate processes, monitor status, and exchange data between LightBurn and third-party applications. The API is intended for use on a single computer or within your local network. Public documentation for the LightBurn REST API is available at https://github.com/LightBurnSoftware/LightBurn-REST with more detailed documentation coming soon.

As a reminder, LightBurn does not endorse, recommend, support, or encourage unattended use of lasers or other machinery. LightBurn's API is not a replacement for direct operator supervision.
