How to enable WhatsMiner API

To use advanced control features in Moonone—like rebooting, pool switching, and more -you need to enable the Write API on your WhatsMiner devices. This option is off by default.

1

Download the WhatsMiner Tool

Start by downloading the official WhatsMiner Tool from the Whatsminer website. This utility is required for API activation and for setting a secure password.

2

Scan and Add Miners

1. Open the WhatsMiner Tool.

2. Click the “Miner IP” button to begin network setup.

3. In the IP management window, enter your local IP range and press “Add”, then “OK” to confirm.

4. Click “Start” to scan for devices—your miners should appear shortly in the list.

Update the Admin Password

The API cannot be enabled unless the administrator password is changed first.

⚠️ Important: Passwords must be changed through the WhatsMiner Tool—changes made via the web interface won’t activate API access.

💡 You can keep using admin as the new password, but it still needs to be updated through the tool to enable the API.

Steps:

1. Select your devices by ticking the checkboxes.

2. Click “Password” in the top menu.

3. Choose admin account, enter the current password, then set and confirm a new one.

4. Click “Start update” to apply.

Enable API Communication

Once the password is updated:

1. Click “Remote Ctrl”.

2. Select “Miner API Switch”.

3. In the new window, choose “Enable” and confirm.

Your devices are now ready to interact with MoonOne features via the WhatsMiner API.
