{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```javascript

     -H "X-Algo-API-Token: yourtoken" \
     "http://127.0.0.1:8080/v2/status"
```

{% endcode %}

#### Check your algorand service status

{% hint style="info" %}
In this step you will find the port you are using in the algorand node.
{% endhint %}

```
systemctl status algorand
```

#### Restart node

```
systemctl restart algorand
```

#### Check node status

```
goal node status -d /var/lib/algorand
```

#### :warning: Stop node :warning:

```
systemctl stop algorand
```

#### :warning: Delete Algorand from your server :warning:

```
apt-get remove algorand algorand-devtools
```

```
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/algorand/
```

#### Add variable

In this step if you want to use `goal node status` without using -d flags you can follow this command below.

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```bash
echo "export ALGORAND_DATA=/var/lib/algorand" >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
```

{% endcode %}

Now you can use this command without using -d flags.

```bash
goal node status
```

I'll add more command soon, i just exploring algorand node.
