# Overview

The Screendesk API is REST-based and uses standard HTTP verbs and status codes. The API accepts [form-encoded](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Methods/POST) request bodies and returns JSON-encoded responses. All requests should be made over SSL.

If you have any question, please contact the [Screendesk support](mailto:support@screendesk.io).
