Server Informationedit

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 a 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.
