ZeroTier Central API
ZeroTier Central is our hosted control plane for ZeroTierOne networks.
In addition to the web-based GUI, you can use the Central API to view and manage your networks programmatically.

- New Central - Use Service Account API tokens for automated workflows and team access (requires Essential plan or above)
