Based on the REST API we provide a client, which serves a convenient web user interface to browse through the storage data.

It is a runnable jar which starts a simple web server which then can be accessed by a browser of your choice.

To download it use maven

{% code title="pom.xml" %}

```markup
<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>microstream-releases</id>
        <url>https://repo.microstream.one/repository/maven-public/</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>one.microstream</groupId>
        <artifactId>storage.restclient.app</artifactId>
        <version>04.00.00-MS-GA</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>
```

{% endcode %}

&#x20;or this direct link:

{% embed url="<https://repo.microstream.one/repository/maven-public/one/microstream/storage.restclient.app/04.00.00-MS-GA/storage.restclient.app-04.00.00-MS-GA.jar>" %}

Start the client. The port parameter is optional, default port is 8080.

```
java -jar storage.restclient.app-04.00.00-MS-GA.jar --port=80
```

Then just open <http://localhost> in your browser, select the base URL of the REST service and click connect.
