package.
## Index
This endpoint returns an HTML page listing the available profiles.
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :------------ |
| `GET` | `/sys/pprof/` |
### Sample Request

http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/pprof/
```
## Cmdline
This endpoint returns the running program's command line, with arguments
separated by NUL bytes.
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :------------------- |
| `GET` | `/sys/pprof/cmdline` |
### Sample Request
```shell-session
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
http://127.0.0.1:8200/v1/sys/pprof/cmdline
```
