Download OpenAPI specification:Download

APISIX Control API is used to get the internal state of APISIX. In addition to the endpoints listed below, certain plugins, such as server-info, can add additional endpoints to control API.

Schema

The schema defines the available parameters as well as their data types, properties, default values, valid values, and so on.

Get JSON Schema

Health Check

Health checking is a mechanism that determines whether upstream services are healthy or unhealthy based on their responsiveness.

Get Health Check Information

Get health check information of the APISIX instance. You need to initiate a request to the route to generate Control API health check information.

Garbage Collection

Garbage collection is a form of automatic memory management. The garbage collector attempts to reclaim memory which was allocated by the program, but is no longer referenced.

Trigger Garbage Collection

Trigger a full garbage collection (GC) in the HTTP subsystem. Note that a request to this endpoint would not trigger a garbage collection in the stream subsystem because the subsystems are run in the separate Lua VM.
