+# DRAFT: Room Details API
+
+The Room Details admin API allows server admins to get all details of a room.
+
+This API is still a draft and details might change!
+
+The following fields are possible in the JSON response body:
+
+* `room_id` - The ID of the room.
+* `name` - The name of the room.
+* `canonical_alias` - The canonical (main) alias address of the room.
+* `joined_members` - How many users are currently in the room.
+* `joined_local_members` - How many local users are currently in the room.
+* `version` - The version of the room as a string.
+* `creator` - The `user_id` of the room creator.
+* `encryption` - Algorithm of end-to-end encryption of messages. Is `null` if encryption is not active.
+* `federatable` - Whether users on other servers can join this room.
+* `public` - Whether the room is visible in room directory.
+* `join_rules` - The type of rules used for users wishing to join this room. One of: ["public", "knock", "invite", "private"].
+* `guest_access` - Whether guests can join the room. One of: ["can_join", "forbidden"].
+* `history_visibility` - Who can see the room history. One of: ["invited", "joined", "shared", "world_readable"].
+* `state_events` - Total number of state_events of a room. Complexity of the room.
+
