The number of events to retain. Once the the number of event logs exceeds this configured value they will be deleted starting with the oldest event logs.

systemConfiguration.loginRecordConfiguration.delete.enabled [Boolean]

Whether or not FusionAuth should delete the login records based upon this configuration. When true the loginRecordConfiguration.delete.numberOfDaysToRetain will be used to identify login records that are eligible for deletion. When this value is set to false login records will be preserved forever.

systemConfiguration.loginRecordConfiguration.delete.numberOfDaysToRetain [Integer]

The number of days to retain login records.

systemConfiguration.reportTimezone [String]

Update the System Configuration

This API is used to update an existing System Configuration.

No Id is required to update this object.

You must specify all of the properties of the System Configuration when calling this API with the PUT HTTP method. When used with PUT, this API doesn’t merge the existing System Configuration and your new data. It replaces the existing System Configuration with your new data.

Utilize the PATCH HTTP method to send specific changes to merge into an existing System Configuration.

Request

Update the System Configuration

URI

PUT /api/system-configuration

PATCH /api/system-configuration

Available since 1.39.0

When using the PATCH method, you can either use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request for backward compatibility. Or you may use either JSON Patch/RFC 6902 or JSON Merge Patch/RFC 7396. See the PATCH documentation for more information.

Available since 1.12.0

When using the PATCH method, use the same request body documentation that is provided for the PUT request. The PATCH method will merge the provided request parameters into the existing object, this means all parameters are optional when using the PATCH method and you only provide the values you want changed. A null value can be used to remove a value. Patching an Array will result in all values from the new list being appended to the existing list, this is a known limitation to the current implementation of PATCH.

Return the system status without an API key

URI

GET /api/status

Return the system status with an API key

URI

GET /api/status

Response

The JSON response from the Status API is complex and subject to change. The only exception is the version key.

version will not change and will be returned as below. As a reminder, an API key is required to obtain this value.


{
//..
    "version": "1.26.1"
//..
}

The specific contents of the JSON body are not documented here. If you choose to use this API for monitoring purposes you should primarily use the response code to indicate server health. If you receive a 200 you may consider FusionAuth in a healthy state. The response body is intended for use by FusionAuth support.

Table 8. Response Codes
Code	Description
200	The FusionAuth is functioning properly
452	The FusionAuth is failing to make a JDBC connection to the configured database.
453	The FusionAuth database connection pool connectivity is below the healthy threshold. Additional information may be available in the JSON response which is retrieved when using an API key.
454	The FusionAuth database connectivity pool connectivity is below the healthy threshold. Additional information may be available in the JSON response which is retrieved when using an API key.
460	FusionAuth is using Elasticsearch and the search service is reporting an unhealthy cluster status. In a cluster with 2+ nodes, this means the cluster status is being reported as `yellow` or `red`. In a single-node Elasticsearch configuration this means the cluster status is `red.`
500	The FusionAuth server is not functioning properly. This could indicate that the database connectivity failed or one or more services within FusionAuth failed. Consult the FusionAuth Troubleshooting to learn more about the failure or contact FusionAuth support for assistance.
