On success, the server returns a plain-text200 OK with the body:
Status Codes
This endpoint does not validate that the upstream RPC node is reachable. A
200 response here does not guarantee that POST /analyze will succeed. If you need to verify full end-to-end connectivity, submit a known transaction hash to /analyze in your smoke tests.Use Cases
- Deployment platform healthchecks — point Railway, Fly.io, Render, or similar platforms at
/healthto determine when the container is ready to serve traffic. - Uptime monitoring — configure tools such as UptimeRobot or Better Uptime to poll
/healthat a regular interval and alert on non-200responses.
