The configuration

1. In JDownloader2 go to Settings -> Advanced Settings
2. Search for “RemoteAPI”
3. Enable the “Deprecated API” option
4. Disable “Deprecated API Localhost only” if jd2 is in docker or not local to the application(e.g mylar)
5. Change the port if you want. Now make sure to expose that port in your docker configuration
