== cat snapshots
The `snapshots` command shows all snapshots that belong to a specific repository.
To find a list of available repositories to query, the command `/_cat/repositories` can be used.
Querying the snapshots of a repository named `repo1` then looks as follows.
[source,sh]
--------------------------------------------------
% curl 'localhost:9200/_cat/snapshots/repo1?v'
id status start_epoch start_time end_epoch end_time indices successful_shards failed_shards total_shards
snap1 FAILED 1445616705 18:11:45 1445616978 18:16:18 1 4 1 5
snap2 SUCCESS 1445634298 23:04:58 1445634672 23:11:12 2 10 0 10
--------------------------------------------------
Each snapshot contains information about when it was started and stopped.
Start and stop timestamps are available in two formats.
The `HH:MM:SS` output is simply for quick human consumption.
The epoch time retains more information, including date, and is machine sortable if the snapshot process spans days.
