The Elastic APM integration became generally available in 7.16 — see the APM Guide for updated documentation. Standalone APM Server users can see the Legacy APM Overview and Legacy APM Server Reference.
Server Information APIedit
The APM Server exposes an API endpoint to query general server information. This lightweight endpoint is useful as a server up/down healthcheck.
Server Information endpointedit
Send an HTTP GET
request to the server information endpoint:
http(s)://{hostname}:{port}/
This endpoint always returns an HTTP 200.
If an API keys or Secret token is set, only requests including authentication will receive server details.
Set the Accept
header set to text/plain
to move the server information to the root level of the response, removing ok
.
Exampleedit
Example server information request:
curl http://127.0.0.1:8200/ { "ok": { "build_date": "2018-07-27T18:49:58Z", "build_sha": "bc4d9a286a65b4283c2462404add86a26be61dca", "version": "7.0.0-alpha1" } }
