in Consul.

# Config HTTP Endpoint
The `/config` endpoints create, update, delete and query central configuration
entries registered with Consul. See the
[agent configuration](/docs/agent/options.html#enable_central_service_config)
for more information on how to enable this functionality for centrally
configuring services and [configuration entries docs](/docs/agent/config_entries.html) for a description
of the configuration entries content.
## Apply Configuration
This endpoint creates or updates the given config entry.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `PUT` | `/config` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| `NO` | `none` | `none` | `service:write`<br>`operator:write`<sup>1</sup> |
<sup>1</sup> The ACL required depends on the config entry kind being updated:
| Config Entry Kind | Required ACL |
| ----------------- | ---------------- |
| service-defaults | `service:write` |
| proxy-defaults | `operator:write` |
### Parameters
- `dc` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter to query. This will default to
the datacenter of the agent being queried. This is specified as part of the
URL as a query parameter.
- `cas` `(int: 0)` - Specifies to use a Check-And-Set operation. If the index is
0, Consul will only store the entry if it does not already exist. If the index is
non-zero, the entry is only set if the current index matches the `ModifyIndex`
of that entry.
- `ns` `(string: "")` - **(Enterprise Only)** Specifies the namespace in which the
service and checks will be registered. This value may be provided by either the
`ns` URL query parameter or in the `X-Consul-Namespace` header. Additionally,
the namespace may be provided within the `Service` or `Check` fields but if
present in multiple places, they must all be the same. If not provided at all,
the namespace will be inherited from the request's ACL token or will default
to the `default` namespace. Added in Consul 1.7.0.
### Sample Payload
```javascript
{
"Kind": "service-defaults",
"Name": "web",
"Protocol": "http"
}
```
### Sample Request
```sh
$ curl \
--request PUT \
--data @payload \
http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/config
```
## Get Configuration
This endpoint returns a specific config entry.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/config/:kind/:name` | `application/json` |

| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
| `YES` | `all` | `none` | `service:read`<sup>1</sup> |
<sup>1</sup> The ACL required depends on the config entry kind being read:
| Config Entry Kind | Required ACL |
