How do I use the API to restart my Linode?

Does anyone know the answer?

Hi there — we have an existing Community question that details how to reboot your Linode via the API, here's the relevant snippet of the API call from that post:

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
    -X POST \
    https://api.linode.com/v4/linode/instances/$LINODEID/reboot

As also called out in that post, you will need to replace $TOKEN with your API token, and $LINODEID with your Linode's ID.
