4.11.1 Health Endpoint

The health endpoint can be enriched with custom health checks by adding classes extending the org.springframework.boot.actuate.health.HealthIndicator class of the Spring Boot framework. Each health indicator is a bean with a name suffix healthIndicator. In the example below we will describe the usage on a health indicator with the name uapiConnection.

By default the health indicator can be enabled or disbled by configuring the following property:

Endpoint properties. 

management.health.uapiConnection.enabled=true

When activated, the health indicator will extend the default health endpoint with its name as its subpath.

Endpoint details activated. 

management.endpoint.health.show-details=always

Endpoint URL. 

http://localhost:8081/actuator/health/uapiConnection

When requested using a GET HTTP request, the endpoint will respond with an HTTP return code, matching the state of the check.
