# Get heat pump status

> Returns detailed telemetry for a specific heat pump.



## OpenAPI

````yaml get /api/heatpumps/{hpId}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Aris API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    REST API for controlling Aris home comfort systems.


    Aris is an air-to-water heat pump system that heats, cools, and provides hot
    water for homes.

    The Aris Brain is the central controller, managing zones, fan-coil units
    (FCUs), heat pumps,

    domestic hot water (DHW), and thermal energy storage (TES).


    ## Base URL


    The Aris Brain runs on your local network. Find your Brain's address via:

    - mDNS: `http://aris.local` (if your network supports mDNS)

    - Router admin panel: Look for a device named "aris-brain"


    ## Authentication


    Most API endpoints require authentication via Bearer token. Create an API
    token in the Aris web UI under **Settings → API Tokens**.


    Include the token in the `Authorization` header:

    ```

    Authorization: Bearer your-api-token

    ```


    ## Real-time Updates


    For real-time updates, connect to the WebSocket at
    `ws://aris.local?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN`.

    The WebSocket broadcasts zone state changes, system events, and device
    telemetry.

      type: object
      description: >
        The Heat Pump represents the physical outdoor machinery and its internal
        electronics.

        It is a child of an HCU and provides deep diagnostic data required by
        technicians.

        This device has no direct control points exposed to the system; it is
        controlled

        exclusively by the logic within the HCU.
