Did you figure this out? I've got the same issue now.

Re: Container Station 2.4 - Where is the REST API?
I have the same issue, I believe since update to FW 4.5.4.1741
I'm already in touch with Qnap support, but up until now it has not been very helpful.
Container station is running, containers are accesible but URL / API for CS Management GUI gives me same error as the one from uwe_k shown above.
Any ideas on that?

Re: Container Station 2.4 - Where is the REST API?
You are right about the version. I managed to fix it by downgrading. I went through qnap support too, been waiting on responses. They eventually admitted it was an issue with the new version and just told me to wait for the next. So when the next version came out and I upgraded, I was pretty ** when it was still broke. I reopened the ticket with qnap and am on week 2 of waiting for a response.

Re: Container Station 2.4 - Where is the REST API?
Good news: A long journey comes to an end after chatting with Qnap regularly for the past four weeks:
Try "Download Diagnostic Report" in CS on QTS GUI.
You'll get a .tbz file
Open etc/config/qpkg.conf in text editor
Look for section [container-station], there it says what the URL looks like. In my case it was written with a dash instead of written together:
WebUI = /container-station/
The downside: In my bookmarks it has been /containerstation for years already. Since I never changed or even touched that config file, this must have been changed by one of the past updates or -what I won't hope 'cause it would be the very worst- by somebody else
Hope this helps.

Re: Container Station 2.4 - Where is the REST API?
You are correct, it definitely looks like they changed the url from containerstation to container-station. Unfortunately, the api is still unavailable for me I do think I will have to update my api calls to this new url format though, so thank you for the find!

Interesting!
And off course the URL for file station is without the dash.
Certainly, QNAP doesn't have a reputation for consistency.

As of version 2.4.3.208, it is still broken. After months of trying to get qnap support to give a damn, it is still broken.

Re: Container Station 2.4 - Where is the REST API?
Problem solved.
After replaceing "containerstation" with "container-station" in the api url, I was able to use it again.
