noteserver listens for the sigint (interrupt) signal. when this signal is detected, the server begins its shutdown sequence, ensuring any pending operations are completed and the database connections are closed safely.

notes

when interfacing with the api, particularly the /sync endpoint, authentication is managed via a bearer token provided in the request headers. it's expecting a 64 character string, hopefully a sha256 hash. if there's any issue with your request, such as authentication failures or malformed data, refer to the returned http status codes for insight.
