# Talking to AllQueue

Now that your client and server are all set up, how do you use AllQueue? The concept is pretty simple. You have a local AllQueue client running locally on your client machine. There are multiple different ways you can talk to the client, but the simplest is through the REST API. The AllQueue client runs a local http server which accepts REST API calls.
