# Self-service cluster status for the caller

`GET /api/cloud18/self-service`

## Request

- The document declares no server URL.
- Auth: none declared. Required headers: `Authorization`

Whether this instance accepts self-service cluster creation from Cloud18 users, the per-user limit, and how many clusters the caller already sponsors here.

## Headers

- `Authorization` string, required

## Response `200`

OK

- ServerSelfServiceStatus
  - `appTemplates` string[]

  - `clusters` string[]
  - `defaultApu` integer
  - `defaultBku` integer
  - `defaultDbu` integer
  - `domain` string: The infrastructure identity and the app templates it can deploy, so a client plans an app and renders its URL (the template's primary route CNAME is <app>.<cluster>.<subDomain>-<zone>.<domain>.cloud18.io) before creating anything.

    - `usableApu` number
    - `usableDbu` number
  - `poolBlocked` boolean: PoolBlocked: Enabled is false because of the pool only (the verdict a quote re-takes for the requested units), never compared by its wording.
  - `poolNote` string
  - `poolOk` boolean
  - `prices` ServerSelfServicePrices
    - `apu` number
    - `bau` number
    - `bku` number
