Getting Single Bucket Information

To retrieve information about existing buckets and the default bucket, use the GET operation with the /pools/default/buckets/[bucket-name] URI.

HTTP method and URI

To retrieve information for a single bucket associated with a cluster, provide the name of a specific bucket.

GET /pools/default/buckets/[bucket-name]

The main REST API bucket endpoint, /pools/default/buckets/[bucket-name], ends with the bucket name. Clients MUST use the server list from the bucket, not the pool to indicate the appropriate servers to connect to.

Syntax

Curl request syntax:

curl -u [admin]:[password]
    http://[localhost]:8091/pools/default/buckets/[bucket-name]

To get information about the default bucket, replace [bucket-name] with default:

curl -u [admin]:[password]
    http://[localhost]:8091/pools/default/buckets/default

Example

Curl request example:

curl -u Administrator:password \
    http://10.5.2.117:8091/pools/default/buckets/test2

Response

Couchbase Server returns a large JSON document with bucket information.
