# Operator HTTP Endpoint
The `/operator` endpoints provide cluster-level tools for Consul operators,
such as interacting with the Raft subsystem. For a CLI to perform these
operations manually, please see the documentation for the
[`consul operator`](/docs/commands/operator.html) command.
If ACLs are enabled then a token with operator privileges may be required in
order to use this interface. See the [ACL Guide](/docs/guides/acl.html#operator)
for more information.

how these capabilities are used.
