Integrate using Eureka Rest APIs

You can use the Eureka Rest APIs explained here.

REST Endpoints Documentation

appID is the name of the application and instanceID is the unique identifier associated with the instance. In AWS cloud, instanceID is the instance id of the instance and in other data centers, it is the hostname of the instance.

Operation

HTTP action

Description

Register new application instance

POST /eureka/apps/appID

Input: JSON/XML payload Output: HTTP Code: 204 on success

De-register application instance

DELETE /eureka/apps/appID/instanceID

Output: HTTP Code: 200 on success

Send application instance heartbeat

PUT /eureka/apps/appID/instanceID

Output: HTTP Code: 200 on success 404 if instanceID doesn't exist

Take instance out of service

PUT /eureka/apps/appID/instanceID/status?value=OUT_OF_SERVICE

Output HTTP Code: 200 on success 500 on failure

Move instance back into service (remove override

DELETE /eureka/apps/appID/instanceID/status?value=UP (The value=UP is optional, it is used as a suggestion for the fallback status due to removal of the override)

Output HTTP Code: 200 on success 500 on failure

Update metadata

PUT /eureka/apps/appID/instanceID/metadata?key=value

Output HTTP Code: 200 on success 500 on failure

For JSON/XML, the content types supplied must be application/xml or application/json.

When you register, you’ll need to post an XML (or JSON) body which conforms to this XSD:
