Status summary URLs

This page applies to:

The summary status URLs provide status indicators for the various components (such as printers or devices) in your PaperCut NG/MF implementation. You can use either the JSON attribute on each of these URLs, or the HTTP response codes depending on the capabilities of your monitoring tool.

These URLs provide the following HTTP response codes that can be consumed by most monitoring tools:

  • 200—Success

  • 500—Error

For example, if a Site Server is offline, the /api/health/site-servers/status URL will return a status code of 500 (Error).

If you use the JSON attribute in the URL, more detailed status information is available when the status is not OK, for example, “Invalid license status: EXPIRED”.

EXAMPLE

The following status summary URLs are available.
