The HTML5 Display client is the browser-based interface users load to interact with a remote desktop session running inside a Hoody container. This page documents the connection and general access parameters used to configure that client when accessed through the versioned REST endpoint. Use these parameters to pin a display by ID, target a specific node, project, or container, switch transport layers (SSL, WebTransport), enable audio, or turn on auto-reconnect.

GET /api/v1/display/
