# Status HTTP Endpoint
The Status endpoints are used to get information about the status
of the Consul cluster.
Please note: this information is generally very low level
and not often useful for clients.
The following endpoints are supported:
* [`/v1/status/leader`](#status_leader) : Returns the current Raft leader
* [`/v1/status/peers`](#status_peers) : Returns the current Raft peer set
### <a name="status_leader"></a> /v1/status/leader
This endpoint is used to get the Raft leader for the datacenter
in which the agent is running. It returns an address, such as:
```text
"10.1.10.12:8300"
```
### <a name="status_peers"></a> /v1/status/peers
This endpoint retrieves the Raft peers for the datacenter in which the
the agent is running. It returns a list of addresses, such as:
```javascript
[
"10.1.10.12:8300",
"10.1.10.11:8300",
"10.1.10.10:8300"
]
```
