TiDB HTTP API

The TiDB HTTP API is a built-in administrative interface available on self-managed TiDB server instances, accessible on port 10080 by default. It exposes endpoints for retrieving server status, database and table schema information, region metadata, MVCC key details, DDL job history, and hot region data. Operators and monitoring systems use this API to inspect the internal state of a running TiDB node, integrate with observability tooling, and troubleshoot distributed SQL execution.
