## WebSocket vs HTTP API
Lemmy's HTTP API is almost identical to its WebSocket API:
- **WebSocket API** needs `let send = { op: userOperation[op], data: form}` as shown in [the WebSocketAPI specification](add_link)
- **WebSocket API** needs `let send = { op: userOperation[op], data: form}` as shown in [the WebSocketAPI specification](https://join.lemmy.ml/api/index.html)
- **HTTP API** needs the form (data) at the top level, an HTTP operation (GET, PUT or POST) and endpoint (at `http(s)://host/api/v2/endpoint`). For example:
> `POST {username_or_email: X, password: X}`
For more information, see the [http.ts](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-js-client/blob/main/src/http.ts) file.
[The WebSocket API](Add_link) should be regarded as the primary source for the HTTP API since it also provides information about how to form HTTP API calls.
