# Explain how one hostname reaches visitors.

`GET /ingress/hostnames/{hostname}`

## Request

- Base URL: `/api` (relative, and the document was published on a file host, not at the API’s origin)
- URL: `/api/ingress/hostnames/{hostname}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Works for any hostname, served or not: the tunnels that could carry it
(`candidates`), the one that does, and why.

## Path parameters

- `hostname` string, required

## Response `200`

- HostnameView: Where a hostname stands with the tunnels, and why.
  - `candidates` HostnameCandidate[], required: The tunnels whose domain covers it.
    - `auto_publish` boolean, required
    - `connector_id` integer, required
    - `domain` string, required
    - `name` string, required
  - `chosen_connector_id` integer, nullable: The tunnel chosen for it, with mode `tunnel`.
  - `connector_id` integer, nullable: The tunnel that publishes it, or would once `detail` is dealt with.
  - `connector_name` string, nullable
  - `detail` string, required: What is happening; when it is not published, why and what to do.
  - `hostname` string, required
  - `mode` 'automatic' | 'tunnel' | 'off', required: How one hostname reaches visitors, as the operator chose it (ADR 058 D9).
  - `published_at` string, date-time, nullable
  - `served_by_workers` boolean, required: Whether workers serve it. A tunnel only publishes those.
  - `state` string, required: `published`, `pending`, `error` or `not_published`.

## Other responses
