# Get Grid Nodes

`GET /connect/grid/`

Retrieves the list of nodes that have recently checked-in with SOC. Nodes are grid members that have recently checked in with SOC.
Under certain scenarios this may not include nodes that are accepted members of the grid but currently offline.
Effectively, the results of this API call will match the view of the Grid screen in SOC (Not the Grid Members screen).

## Response `200`
