### Health Checks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default, Shynet includes a default health check endpoint at `/healthz/`. If the instance is running normally, this endpoint will return an HTTP status code of 200; if something is wrong, it will have a non-200 status code. To view the health data as JSON, send your request to `/healthz/?format=json`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This feature is helpful when running Shynet with Kubernetes, as it allows you to setup [startup readiness probes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/) that prevent traffic from being sent to your Shynet instances before they are ready.
