# Public rippled Methods
Communicate directly with a `rippled` server using these public API methods.
Public methods are not necessarily meant for the general public, but they are used by any client attached to the server. Think of public methods as being for members or customers of the organization running the server.
Public methods include operations such as checking the state of the ledger, finding a path to connecting users, and submitting a transaction, among others.
## List of Methods
Communicate directly with a `rippled` server using the following public API methods. Public methods are not necessarily meant for the general public, but they are used by any client attached to the server. Think of public methods as being for members or customers of the organization running the server.
