# Discovery Chain HTTP Endpoint
|
||
|
|
||
|
~> This is a low-level API primarily targeted at developers building external
|
||
|
[Connect proxy integrations](/docs/connect/proxies/integrate.html). Future
|
||
|
high-level proxy integration APIs may obviate the need for this API over time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `/discovery-chain` endpoint returns the compiled [discovery
|
||
|
chain](/docs/internals/discovery-chain.html) for a service.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This will fetch all related [configuration
|
||
|
entries](/docs/agent/config_entries.html) and render them into a form suitable
|
||
|
for use by a [connect proxy](/docs/connect/proxies.html) implementation. This
|
||
|
is a key component of [L7 Traffic
|
||
|
Management](/docs/connect/l7-traffic-management.html).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Read Compiled Discovery Chain
|
||
|
|
||
|
If overrides are needed they are passed as the JSON-encoded request body and
|
||
|
the `POST` method must be used, otherwise `GET` is sufficient.
|
||
|
|
||
|
| Method | Path | Produces |
|
||
|
| ------------------ | --------------------------- | ------------------ |
|
||
|
| `GET` | `/discovery-chain/:service` | `application/json` |
|
||
|
| `POST`<sup>1</sup> | `/discovery-chain/:service` | `application/json` |
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
<sup>1</sup> Both GET and POST are for <strong>read</strong> operations. GET
|
||
|
requests do not permit request bodies so a POST is required if override
|
||
|
parameters are needed.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
|
||
|
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
|
||
|
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
|
||
|
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
|
||
|
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
|
||
|
|
||
|
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
|
||
|
| ---------------- | ----------------- | -------------------- | -------------- |
|
||
|
| `YES` | `all` | `background refresh` | `service:read` |
|
||
|
|
||
|
### URL Parameters
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `service` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the service to query when
|
||
|
compiling the discovery chain. This is provided as part of the URL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `compile-dc` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter to use as the basis of
|
||
|
compilation. This will default to the datacenter of the agent being queried.
|
||
|
This is specified as part of the URL as a query parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This value comes from an [upstream
|
||
|
configuration](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#upstream-configuration-reference)
|
||
|
[`datacenter`](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#datacenter)
|
||
|
parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### POST Body Parameters
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `OverrideConnectTimeout` `(duration: 0s)` - Overrides the final [connect
|
||
|
timeout](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-resolver.html#connecttimeout) for
|
||
|
any service resolved in the compiled chain.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This value comes from the `connect_timeout_ms` key in an [upstream
|
||
|
configuration](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#upstream-configuration-reference)
|
||
|
opaque
|
||
|
[`config`](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#config-1)
|
||
|
parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `OverrideProtocol` `(string: "")` - Overrides the final
|
||
|
[protocol](/docs/agent/config-entries/service-defaults.html#protocol) used in
|
||
|
the compiled discovery chain.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the chain ordinarily would be TCP and an L7 protocol is passed here the
|
||
|
chain will still not include Routers or Splitters. If the chain ordinarily
|
||
|
would be L7 and TCP is passed here the chain will not include Routers or
|
||
|
Splitters.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This value comes from the `protocol` key in an [upstream
|
||
|
configuration](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#upstream-configuration-reference)
|
||
|
opaque
|
||
|
[`config`](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#config-1)
|
||
|
parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `OverrideMeshGateway` `(MeshGatewayConfig: <optional>)` - Overrides the final
|
||
|
[mesh gateway configuration](/docs/connect/mesh_gateway.html#connect-proxy-configuration)
|
||
|
for this any service resolved in the compiled chain.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This value comes from either the [proxy
|
||
|
configuration](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#complete-configuration-example)
|
||
|
[`mesh_gateway`](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#mesh_gateway)
|
||
|
parameter or an [upstream
|
||
|
configuration](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#upstream-configuration-reference)
|
||
|
[`mesh_gateway`](/docs/connect/registration/service-registration.html#mesh_gateway-1)
|
||
|
parameter. If both are present the value defined on the upstream is used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `Mode` `(string: "")` - One of `none`, `local`, or `remote`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Sample Compilations
|
||
|
|
||
|
Full documentation for the output fields is found on the [discovery chain
|
||
|
internals](/docs/internals/discovery-chain.html#compileddiscoverychain)
|
||
|
page.
