# Consul Intention Check
|
|
|
|
Command: `consul intention check`
|
|
|
|
The `intention check` command checks whether a connection attempt between
|
|
two services would be authorized given the current set of intentions and
|
|
Consul configuration.
|
|
|
|
This command requires less ACL permissions than other intention-related
|
|
tasks because no information about the intention is revealed. Therefore,
|
|
callers only need to have `service:read` access for the destination. Richer
|
|
commands like [match](/docs/commands/intention/match.html) require full
|
|
intention read permissions and don't evaluate the result.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: `consul intention check [options] SRC DST`
|
|
|
