# ovok_sdk.resources.health

Canonical page: https://docs.ovok.com/python-sdk/reference/resources/health

The `ovok.health` namespace: the API health check.

## HealthResource [#healthresource]

```python
HealthResource(http: HttpClient)
```

Reads the API health check.

Created by `Ovok`; access it as `ovok.health`. It sends no credentials.

### check() [#check]

```python
check() -> dict[str, Any]
```

Read the API health response.

The route always answers 200, so read `ok` in the body, not the status.

**Returns**

- `dict[str, Any]`: The health body; `ok` tells whether the API is healthy.

**Examples**

```python
>>> ovok.health.check()["ok"]
True
```
