[[cat-repositories]]
== cat repositories

The `repositories` command shows the snapshot repositories registered in the
cluster. For example:

[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET /_cat/repositories?v
--------------------------------------------------
// CONSOLE
// TEST[s/^/PUT \/_snapshot\/repo1\n{"type": "fs", "settings": {"location": "repo\/1"}}\n/]

might looks like:

[source,txt]
--------------------------------------------------
id    type
repo1   fs
repo2   s3
--------------------------------------------------
// TESTRESPONSE[s/\nrepo2   s3// _cat]

We can quickly see which repositories are registered and their type.
