Shutting down the service

By default, the

Cylance Engine

does not allow shutdown requests. If the

Cylance Engine

is configured to allow shutdown requests, the client may request that it be shut down:

PUT /apiv1/shutdown
Content-Length: 0

You do not need to include any data with the request; if any data is supplied, it is ignored. However, the

Content-Length

header must be present or the server rejects the request.

If shutdown is not allowed (
Shutdown=false
in the configuration file), a 401 Unauthorized result is returned.
If shutdown is allowed (
Shutdown=true
in the configuration file or if the service was started with the
--shutdown
option), a 200 OK is returned with no data.
