# Catalog HTTP API
|
||
|
||
The `/catalog` endpoints register and deregister nodes, services, and checks in
|
||
Consul. The catalog should not be confused with the agent, since some of the
|
||
API methods look similar.
|
||
|
||
## Register Entity
|
||
|
||
This endpoint is a low-level mechanism for registering or updating
|
||
entries in the catalog. It is usually preferable to instead use the
|
||
[agent endpoints](/api/agent.html) for registration as they are simpler and
|
||
perform [anti-entropy](/docs/internals/anti-entropy.html).
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
||
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
|
||
| `PUT` | `/catalog/register` | `application/json` |
|
||
|
||
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
||
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries),
|
||
[consistency modes](/api/index.html#consistency-modes), and
|
||
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
|
||
|
||
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | ACL Required |
|
||
| ---------------- | ----------------- | -------------------------- |
|
||
| `NO` | `none` | `node:write,service:write` |
|
||
|
||
### Parameters
|
||
|
||
- `ID` `(string: "")` - An optional UUID to assign to the service. If not
|
||
provided, one is generated. This must be a 36-character UUID.
|
||
|
||
- `Node` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the node ID to register.
|
||
|
||
- `Address` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the address to register.
|
||
|
||
- `Datacenter` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter, which defaults to the
|
||
agent's datacenter if not provided.
|
||
|
||
- `TaggedAddresses` `(map<string|string>: nil)` - Specifies the tagged
|
||
addresses.
|
||
|
||
- `NodeMeta` `(map<string|string>: nil)` - Specifies arbitrary KV metadata
|
||
pairs for filtering purposes.
|
||
|
||
- `Service` `(Service: nil)` - Specifies to register a service. If `ID` is not
|
||
provided, it will be defaulted to the value of the `Service.Service` property.
|
||
Only one service with a given `ID` may be present per node. The service
|
||
`Tags`, `Address`, and `Port` fields are all optional.
|
||
|
||
- `Check` `(Check: nil)` - Specifies to register a check. The register API
|
||
manipulates the health check entry in the Catalog, but it does not setup the
|
||
script, TTL, or HTTP check to monitor the node's health. To truly enable a new
|
||
health check, the check must either be provided in agent configuration or set
|
||
via the [agent endpoint](agent.html).
|
||
|
||
The `CheckID` can be omitted and will default to the value of `Name`. As
|
||
with `Service.ID`, the `CheckID` must be unique on this node. `Notes` is an
|
||
opaque field that is meant to hold human-readable text. If a `ServiceID` is
|
||
provided that matches the `ID` of a service on that node, the check is
|
||
treated as a service level health check, instead of a node level health
|
||
check. The `Status` must be one of `passing`, `warning`, or `critical`.
|
||
|
||
Multiple checks can be provided by replacing `Check` with `Checks` and
|
||
sending an array of `Check` objects.
|
||
|
||
It is important to note that `Check` does not have to be provided with `Service`
|
||
and vice versa. A catalog entry can have either, neither, or both.
|
||
|
||

|
||
## Deregister Entity
|
||
|
||
This endpoint is a low-level mechanism for directly removing
|
||
entries from the Catalog. It is usually preferable to instead use the
|
||
[agent endpoints](/api/agent.html) for deregistration as they are simpler and
|
||
perform [anti-entropy](/docs/internals/anti-entropy.html).
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
||
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
|
||
| `PUT` | `/catalog/deregister` | `application/json` |
|
||
|
||
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
||
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries),
|
||
[consistency modes](/api/index.html#consistency-modes), and
|
||
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
|
||
|
||
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | ACL Required |
|
||
| ---------------- | ----------------- | -------------------------- |
|
||
| `NO` | `none` | `node:write,service:write` |
|
||
|
||
### Parameters
|
||
|
||
The behavior of the endpoint depends on what keys are provided.
|
||
|
||
- `Node` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the ID of the node. If no other
|
||
values are provided, this node, all its services, and all its checks are
|
||
removed.
|
||
|
||
- `Datacenter` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter, which defaults to the
|
||
agent's datacenter if not provided.
|
||
|
||
- `CheckID` `(string: "")` - Specifies the ID of the check to remove.
|
||
|
||
- `ServiceID` `(string: "")` - Specifies the ID of the service to remove. The
|
||
service and all associated checks will be removed.
|
||
|
||
### Sample Payloads
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"Datacenter": "dc1",
|
||
"Node": "foobar"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"Datacenter": "dc1",
|
||
"Node": "foobar",
|
||
"CheckID": "service:redis1"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"Datacenter": "dc1",
|
||
"Node": "foobar",
|
||
"ServiceID": "redis1"
|

### Sample Request
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
$ curl \
|
||
--request PUT \
|
||
--data @payload.json \
|
||
https://consul.rocks/v1/catalog/deregister
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## List Datacenters
|
||
|
||
This endpoint returns the list of all known datacenters. The datacenters will be
|
||
sorted in ascending order based on the estimated median round trip time from the
|
||
server to the servers in that datacenter.
|
||
|
||
This endpoint does not require a cluster leader and will succeed even during an
|
||
availability outage. Therefore, it can be used as a simple check to see if any
|
||
Consul servers are routable.
|
||
|
||
| Method | Path | Produces |

||
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
|
