There are several situations where the [Health API](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/elasticsearch/operation/operation-health-report) might report an issue regarding the integrity of snapshot repositories in the cluster. The following pages explain the recommended actions for diagnosing corrupted, unknown, and invalid repositories:
- [Diagnose corrupted repositories](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/elastic/docs-content/pull/4236/troubleshoot/elasticsearch/diagnosing-corrupted-repositories)
