openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: PHP-FPM Status and Endpoints Ping API
  description: 'PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) does not expose a public HTTP API for

    runtime configuration, but it does expose two operational HTTP endpoints

    via the web server that proxies FastCGI requests to PHP-FPM. The status

    endpoint is enabled by setting `pm.status_path` and reports pool

    metrics in plain text, full text, HTML, JSON, XML, or OpenMetrics

    format depending on a query-string flag. The ping endpoint is enabled

    by setting `ping.path` and returns a configurable static response

    (default `pong`) suitable for upstream health checks.


    The actual paths are administrator-defined; the most common

    conventions (`/fpm-status` and `/fpm-ping`) are modeled here. Authentication

    and access control are handled by the fronting web server, not by

    PHP-FPM itself.
