The /health endpoints query health-related information for services and checks
in Consul.

# Health HTTP Endpoint
The `/health` endpoints query health-related information. They are provided
separately from the `/catalog` endpoints since users may prefer not to use the
optional health checking mechanisms. Additionally, some of the query results
from the health endpoints are filtered while the catalog endpoints provide the
raw entries.
## List Checks for Node
This endpoint returns the checks specific to the node provided on the path.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/health/node/:node` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries),
[consistency modes](/api/index.html#consistency-modes), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------ |
| `YES` | `all` | `node:read,service:read` |
### Parameters
- `node` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the name or ID of the node to query.
This is specified as part of the URL
- `dc` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter to query. This will default to
the datacenter of the agent being queried. This is specified as part of the
URL as a query parameter.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
https://consul.rocks/v1/health/node/my-node
```
### Sample Response
```json

## List Checks for Service
This endpoint returns the checks associated with the service provided on the
path.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/health/checks/:service` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries),
[consistency modes](/api/index.html#consistency-modes), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------ |
| `YES` | `all` | `node:read,service:read` |
### Parameters
- `service` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the service to list checks for.
This is provided as part of the URL.
- `dc` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter to query. This will default to
the datacenter of the agent being queried. This is specified as part of the
URL as a query parameter.
- `near` `(string: "")` - Specifies a node name to sort the node list in
ascending order based on the estimated round trip time from that node. Passing
`?near=_agent` will use the agent's node for the sort. This is specified as
part of the URL as a query parameter.
- `node-meta` `(string: "")` - Specifies a desired node metadata key/value pair
of the form `key:value`. This parameter can be specified multiple times, and
will filter the results to nodes with the specified key/value pairs. This is
specified as part of the URL as a query parameter.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
https://consul.rocks/v1/health/checks/my-service
```
### Sample Response
```json
[
{
"Node": "foobar",
"CheckID": "service:redis",
"Name": "Service 'redis' check",
"Status": "passing",
"Notes": "",
"Output": "",
"ServiceID": "redis",
"ServiceName": "redis",
"ServiceTags": ["primary"]
}
]
```
## List Nodes for Service
This endpoint returns the nodes providing the service indicated on the path.
Users can also build in support for dynamic load balancing and other features by
incorporating the use of health checks.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/health/service/:service` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries),
[consistency modes](/api/index.html#consistency-modes), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------ |
| `YES` | `all` | `node:read,service:read` |
### Parameters
- `service` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the service to list services for.
This is provided as part of the URL.
- `dc` `(string: "")` - Specifies the datacenter to query. This will default to
the datacenter of the agent being queried. This is specified as part of the
URL as a query parameter.
- `near` `(string: "")` - Specifies a node name to sort the node list in
ascending order based on the estimated round trip time from that node. Passing
`?near=_agent` will use the agent's node for the sort. This is specified as
part of the URL as a query parameter.
- `tag` `(string: "")` - Specifies the tag to filter the list. This is
specifies as part of the URL as a query parameter.
- `node-meta` `(string: "")` - Specifies a desired node metadata key/value pair
of the form `key:value`. This parameter can be specified multiple times, and
will filter the results to nodes with the specified key/value pairs. This is
specified as part of the URL as a query parameter.
- `passing` `(bool: false)` - Specifies that the server should return only nodes
with all checks in the `passing` state. This can be used to avoid additional
filtering on the client side.
### Sample Request
