api Config - HTTP API api-config The /config endpoints are for managing centralized configuration in Consul.

Config HTTP Endpoint

The /config endpoints create, update, delete and query central configuration entries registered with Consul. See the agent configuration for more information on how to enable this functionality for centrally configuring services and configuration entries docs 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, consistency modes, agent caching, and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries Consistency Modes Agent Caching ACL Required
NO none none service:write
operator:write1

1 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 the config entry will apply to. This value may be provided by either the ns URL query parameter or in the X-Consul-Namespace header. 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

{
    "Kind": "service-defaults",
    "Name": "web",
    "Protocol": "http"
}

Sample Request

$ curl \
    --request PUT \
    --data @payload \
