Agent HTTP API

The /agent endpoints are used to interact with the local Nomad agent.

List Members

This endpoint queries the agent for the known peers in the gossip pool. This endpoint is only applicable to servers. Due to the nature of gossip, this is eventually consistent.

Method Path Produces
GET /agent/members application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO node:read

Sample Request

$ curl \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/members

Sample Response

{
  "ServerName": "bacon-mac",
  "ServerRegion": "global",

      "DelegateMax": 4,
      "DelegateCur": 4
    }
  ]
}

List Servers

This endpoint lists the known server nodes. The servers endpoint is used to query an agent in client mode for its list of known servers. Client nodes register themselves with these server addresses so that they may dequeue work. The servers endpoint can be used to keep this configuration up to date if there are changes in the cluster.

Method Path Produces
GET /agent/servers application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO agent:read

Sample Request

$ curl \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/servers

Sample Response

[
  "127.0.0.1:4647"
]

Update Servers

This endpoint updates the list of known servers to the provided list. This replaces all previous server addresses with the new list.

Method Path Produces
POST /agent/servers (empty body)

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO agent:write

Parameters

  • address (string: <required>) - Specifies the list of addresses in the format ip:port. This is specified as a query string!

Sample Request

$ curl \
    --request POST \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/servers?address=1.2.3.4:4647&address=5.6.7.8:4647

Query Self

This endpoint queries the state of the target agent (self).

Method Path Produces
GET /agent/self application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Join Agent

This endpoint introduces a new member to the gossip pool. This endpoint is only eligible for servers.

Method Path Produces
POST /agent/join application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO none

Parameters

  • address (string: <required>) - Specifies the address to join in the ip:port format. This is provided as a query parameter and may be specified multiple times to join multiple servers.

Sample Request

$ curl \
    --request POST \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/join?address=1.2.3.4&address=5.6.7.8

Sample Response

{
  "error": "",
  "num_joined": 2
}

Force Leave Agent

This endpoint forces a member of the gossip pool from the "failed" state to the "left" state. This allows the consensus protocol to remove the peer and stop attempting replication. This is only applicable for servers.

Method Path Produces
POST /agent/force-leave application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO agent:write

Parameters

  • node (string: <required>) - Specifies the name of the node to force leave.

Sample Request

$ curl \
    --request POST \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/force-leave?node=client-ab2e23dc

Health

This endpoint returns whether or not the agent is healthy. When using Consul it is the endpoint Nomad will register for its own health checks.

When the agent is unhealthy 500 will be returned along with JSON response containing an error message.

Method Path Produces
GET /agent/health application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO none

Sample Request

$ curl \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/health

Sample Response

{
    "client": {
        "message": "ok",
        "ok": true
    },
    "server": {
        "message": "ok",
        "ok": true
    }
}

Stream Logs

This endpoint streams logs from the local agent until the connection is closed

Method Path Produces
GET /agent/monitor application/json

The table below shows this endpoint's support for blocking queries and required ACLs.

Blocking Queries ACL Required
NO agent:read

Parameters

  • log-level (string: "info") - Specifies a text string containing a log level to filter on, such as info. Possible values include trace, debug, info, warn, error

  • json (bool: false) - Specifies if the log format for streamed logs should be JSON.

  • node-id (string: "a57b2adb-1a30-2dda-8df0-25abb0881952") - Specifies a text string containing a node-id to target for streaming.

  • plain (bool: false) - Specifies if the response should be JSON or plaintext

Sample Request

$ curl \
    https://localhost:4646/v1/agent/monitor?log-level=debug&node-id=a57b2adb-1a30-2dda-8df0-25abb0881952

Sample Response

{
  "Offset": 0,
  "Data": "NTMxOTMyCjUzMTkzMwo1MzE5MzQKNTMx..."
  "FileEvent": "log"
}

Field Reference

The return value is a stream of frames. These frames contain the following fields:

  • Data - A base64 encoding of the bytes being streamed.

  • FileEvent - An event that could cause a change in the streams position. The possible value for this endpoint is "log".

  • Offset - Offset is the offset into the stream.
