@marcoberri Yes, indeed:

echo '' | jq --exit-status '.status == "UP"'

Doesn't print anything, and exit code is 0. Good catch!

it's work for me!

test : curl -m 5 --silent --fail --request GET http://localhost:8080/actuator/health | jq --exit-status -n 'inputs | if has("status") then .status=="UP" else false end' > /dev/null || exit 1
