You'll need to run it in web server mode, using the `-w` option for the API to be reachable. If you don't plan on using the Web UI, then you can disable it using `--disable-webui`. See the [command reference docs](https://glances.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cmds.html) for more info. If Glaces is running on a Windows system it is recommanded to add the following arguments ```--disable-plugin all --enable-plugin cpu,mem,diskio,ip,network,containers,quicklook,load,fs,alert -w``` This is due to Glances not being that stable on windows, so disabling all plugins that aren't used by Dashy widgets can save on ressources.
