# `/sys/mounts`
The `/sys/mounts` endpoint is used manage secrets engines in Vault.
## List Mounted Secrets Engines
This endpoints lists all the mounted secrets engines.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| :------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `GET` | `/sys/mounts` | `200 application/json` |
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
https://vault.rocks/v1/sys/mounts
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"aws": {
"type": "aws",
"description": "AWS keys",
"config": {
"default_lease_ttl": 0,
"max_lease_ttl": 0,
"force_no_cache": false
}
},
"sys": {
"type": "system",
"description": "system endpoint",
"config": {
"default_lease_ttl": 0,
"max_lease_ttl": 0,
"force_no_cache": false
}
}
}
```
`default_lease_ttl` or `max_lease_ttl` values of 0 mean that the system defaults
are used by this backend.
## Mount Secrets Engine
This endpoint mounts a new secrets engine at the given path.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| :------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/mounts/:path` | `204 (empty body)` |
### Parameters
- `path` `(string: <required>)`  Specifies the path where the secrets engine
will be mounted. This is specified as part of the URL.
- `type` `(string: <required>)` Specifies the type of the backend, such as
"aws".
- `description` `(string: "")`  Specifies the human-friendly description of the
mount.
- `config` `(map<string|string>: nil)`  Specifies configuration options for
this mount. This is an object with four possible values:
- `default_lease_ttl` `(string: "")` - the default lease duration, specified
as a go string duration like "5s" or "30m".
- `max_lease_ttl` `(string: "")` - the maximum lease duration, specified as
a go string duration like "5s" or "30m".
- `force_no_cache` `(bool: false)` - disable caching.
- `plugin_name` `(string: "")` - the name of the plugin in the plugin
catalog to use.
These control the default and maximum lease time-to-live, force
disabling backend caching, and option plugin name for plugin backends
respectively. The first three options override the global defaults if
set on a specific mount. The plugin_name can be provided in the config
map or as a top-level option, with the former taking precedence.
- `plugin_name` `(string: "")`  Specifies the name of the plugin to
use based from the name in the plugin catalog. Applies only to plugin
backends.
Additionally, the following options are allowed in Vault open-source, but
relevant functionality is only supported in Vault Enterprise:
- `local` `(bool: false)` Specifies if the secrets engine is a local mount
only. Local mounts are not replicated nor (if a secondary) removed by
replication.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"type": "aws",
"config": {
"force_no_cache": true
}
}
```
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
--request POST \
--data @payload.json \
https://vault.rocks/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount
```
## Unmount Secrets Engine
This endpoint un-mounts the mount point specified in the URL.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| :------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `DELETE` | `/sys/mounts/:path` | `204 (empty body) ` |
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
--request DELETE \
https://vault.rocks/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount
```
## Read Mount Configuration
This endpoint reads the given mount's configuration. Unlike the `mounts`
endpoint, this will return the current time in seconds for each TTL, which may
be the system default or a mount-specific value.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| :------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `GET` | `/sys/mounts/:path/tune` | `200 application/json` |
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
https://vault.rocks/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount/tune
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"default_lease_ttl": 3600,
"max_lease_ttl": 7200,
"force_no_cache": false
}
```
## Tune Mount Configuration
This endpoint tunes configuration parameters for a given mount point.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| :------- | :--------------------------- | :--------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/mounts/:path/tune` | `204 (empty body)` |
### Parameters
- `default_lease_ttl` `(int: 0)`  Specifies the default time-to-live. This
overrides the global default. A value of `0` is equivalent to the system
default TTL.
- `max_lease_ttl` `(int: 0)` Specifies the maximum time-to-live. This
overrides the global default. A value of `0` are equivalent and set to the
system max TTL.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"default_lease_ttl": 1800,
"max_lease_ttl": 3600
}
```
### Sample Request
```
$ curl \
--header "X-Vault-Token: ..." \
--request POST \
--data @payload.json \
https://vault.rocks/v1/sys/mounts/my-mount/tune
```
