# `/sys/config/reload`
The `sys/config/reload` endpoint allows reloading specific parts of Vault's configuration.
Currently, it only supports reloading license information from files on disk.
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :---------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/config/reload/:subsystem` |
### Parameters
- `subsystem` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the subsystem for Vault to reload. This is part of the request URL.
## Reload License File
2021-06-18 16:19:18 +00:00
~> **Enterprise Only** This endpoint requires Vault Enterprise.
When the `:subsystem` URL parameter is specified as `license`, Vault re-reads
the license file if the license was provided using the `license_path` configuration
option or the `VAULT_LICENSE_PATH` environment variable. The updated license is
applied to Vault, and Vault will then enable/disable licensed features if the features
of the given license are different from those of the license Vault is currently using.
### Sample Request
```shell-session
$ curl \
-X POST \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
'http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/config/reload/license'
```
