# GET /sync-status

`GET /sync-status`

Get the sync status of a node

## Response `200`

Successful operation

- SyncStatus
  - `progress` number, required
  - `target` integer, required
  - `speed` number, required
  - `estimate` integer, required

## Other responses

- `404` — Node not syncing
- `503` — The node is temporarily unable to handle the request: either its request queues are saturated (overload protection) or it has not yet reached a stable mode. Overload protection is applied to every endpoint, so this response can be returned by any operation. The Retry-After header tells the client how long to back off before retrying.
