[Docker Engine API v1.26](v1.26/) documentation

## v1.25 API changes

[Docker Engine API v1.25](v1.25.md) documentation

* The API version is now required in all API calls. Instead of just requesting, for example, the URL `/containers/json`, you must now request `/v1.25/containers/json`.
* `GET /version` now returns `MinAPIVersion`.
* `POST /build` accepts `networkmode` parameter to specify network used during build.
* `GET /images/(name)/json` now returns `OsVersion` if populated
* `GET /info` now returns `Isolation`.
* `POST /containers/create` now takes `AutoRemove` in HostConfig, to enable auto-removal of the container on daemon side when the container's process exits.
* `GET /containers/json` and `GET /containers/(id or name)/json` now return `"removing"` as a value for the `State.Status` field if the container is being removed. Previously, "exited" was returned as status.
* `GET /containers/json` now accepts `removing` as a valid value for the `status` filter.
* `GET /containers/json` now supports filtering containers by `health` status.
* `DELETE /volumes/(name)` now accepts a `force` query parameter to force removal of volumes that were already removed out of band by the volume driver plugin.
* `POST /containers/create/` and `POST /containers/(name)/update` now validates restart policies.
* `POST /containers/create` now validates IPAMConfig in NetworkingConfig, and returns error for invalid IPv4 and IPv6 addresses (`--ip` and `--ip6` in `docker create/run`).
* `POST /containers/create` now takes a `Mounts` field in `HostConfig` which replaces `Binds`, `Volumes`, and `Tmpfs`. *note*: `Binds`, `Volumes`, and `Tmpfs` are still available and can be combined with `Mounts`.
* `POST /build` now performs a preliminary validation of the `Dockerfile` before starting the build, and returns an error if the syntax is incorrect. Note that this change is _unversioned_ and applied to all API versions.
* `POST /build` accepts `cachefrom` parameter to specify images used for build cache.
* `GET /networks/` endpoint now correctly returns a list of *all* networks,
  instead of the default network if a trailing slash is provided, but no `name`
  or `id`.
* `DELETE /containers/(name)` endpoint now returns an error of `removal of container name is already in progress` with status code of 400, when container name is in a state of removal in progress.

* `POST /containers/prune` prunes stopped containers.
* `POST /images/prune` prunes unused images.
* `POST /volumes/prune` prunes unused volumes.
