+# Shutdown room API
+
+Shuts down a room, preventing new joins and moves local users and room aliases automatically
+to a new room. The new room will be created with the user specified by the
+`new_room_user_id` parameter as room administrator and will contain a message
+explaining what happened. Users invited to the new room will have power level
+-10 by default, and thus be unable to speak. The old room's power levels will be changed to
+disallow any further invites or joins.
+
+The local server will only have the power to move local user and room aliases to
+the new room. Users on other servers will be unaffected.
+
+## API
+
+You will need to authenticate with an access token for an admin user.
+
+### URL
+
+`POST /_synapse/admin/v1/shutdown_room/{room_id}`
+
+### URL Parameters
+
+* `room_id` - The ID of the room (e.g `!someroom:example.com`)

+### JSON Body Parameters
+
+* `new_room_user_id` - Required. A string representing the user ID of the user that will admin
+                       the new room that all users in the old room will be moved to.
+* `room_name` - Optional. A string representing the name of the room that new users will be

+* `message` - Optional. A string containing the first message that will be sent as
+              `new_room_user_id` in the new room. Ideally this will clearly convey why the
