# Overview
Welcome to the ZenML API documentation. This guide provides information about both the open-source (OSS) and Pro API endpoints available in the ZenML platform.
OSS API
Open-source API endpoints for core ZenML functionality
## Use Cases
While the ZenML Python SDK covers most workflow requirements, the Server API offers additional utility for:
* Automated scaling of operations in production environments.
* Integration with external monitoring and logging systems.
* Programmatic management and audit of resources and configurations.
* Enterprise team management and access control (Pro).
By leveraging the ZenML API, users can enhance the robustness and control of their machine learning workflows, ensuring operations are both efficient and scalable.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.zenml.io/api-reference/readme.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
