Using the MemGPT API	How to set up a local MemGPT API server	658135e7f596b800715c1cee

⚠️ API under active development

The MemGPT API is under active development and breaking changes are being made frequently. Do not expect any endpoints or API schema to persist until an official v1.0 of the MemGPT API is released.

For support and to track ongoing developments, please visit the MemGPT Discord server where you can chat with the MemGPT team and other developers about the API.

📘 Check Discord for the latest development build

Make sure to check Discord for updates on the latest development branch to use. The API reference viewable on this page may only apply to the latest dev branch, so if you plan to experiment with the API we recommend you install MemGPT from source for the time being.

Starting a server process

You can spawn a MemGPT server process using the following command:

memgpt server

Before attempting to launch a server process, make sure that you have already configured MemGPT (using memgpt configure) and are able to successfully create and message an agent using memgpt run. For more information, see our quickstart guide.
