Service HTTP API

The /service endpoints are used to query and interact with Nomad services.

List Services

This endpoint lists all the currently available Nomad services.

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

Sample Request

$ curl \    https://localhost:4646/v1/services

$ curl \    https://localhost:4646/v1/services?namespace=*

Sample Response

[  {    "Namespace": "default",    "Services": [      {        "ServiceName": "example-cache-redis",        "Tags": [          "cache",          "db"        ]      }    ]  }]

Read Service

This endpoint reads a specific service.

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

Parameters

• :service_name (string: <required>) - Specifies the service name. This is specified as part of the path.

• namespace (string: "default") - Specifies the target namespace. This parameter is used before any filter expression is applied.

• next_token (string: "") - This endpoint supports paging. The next_token parameter accepts a string which identifies the next expected service. This value can be obtained from the X-Nomad-NextToken header from the previous response.

• per_page (int: 0) - Specifies a maximum number of services to return for this request. If omitted, the response is not paginated. The value of the X-Nomad-NextToken header of the last response can be used as the next_token of the next request to fetch additional pages.

• filter (string: "") - Specifies the expression used to filter the results. Consider using pagination or a query parameter to reduce resource used to serve the request.

• choose (string: "") - Specifies the number of services to return and a hash key. Must be in the form <number>|<key>. Nomad uses rendezvous hashing to deliver consistent results for a given key, and stable results when the number of services changes.
